AFAIK the VW Beetle was the first "Kammback" in history. ...because the design violates the core principles of Herr Kamm?
The old 1980´s Lancia Y10 a Kammback?. I didn´t pay enough attention. I will next time I see one of those (now) rare cars in the street. If I have my Camera with me, I promise a picture with the Kammback section.Randroide 19:57, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
If the Lancia Y10 is a Kammback, then isn't every station wagon ever made also a Kammback?66.77.124.61 02:55, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
If the definition of Kammback is a cut off teardrop shape at 50% cross section area, then the VW is not a Kammback because it is not a tear drop, it is more like a dome. The Ford C-Max is not a kammback because the cut off is like 80%, not 50%.
- I've tried to offer a way of explaining the confusion to the reader, by rewording the definition. It seems that the 50% point, in particular, is either controversial or at least poorly understood or measured. – Kieran T (talk | contribs) 21:15, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
- Every mention uses "Kammback" except one "Kamm-back"; I changed it to match the rest. Thedoorhinge 01:19, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
