Looks like a pretty good mesh.
Looks like a pretty good mesh. Try zero non-orthogonal correctors. This will speed up your solution. What software did you use for meshing?

Mattia,

Mattia,
quality sounds good. I am looking forward to see the checkMesh results. What tool did you use? Is it komplex geometry? Cell count is low so I guess it is a more simple shape?

Mattia,
how bad is your mesh? Btw, how did you create it? Could you post the output from checkMesh, please. It might be worth trying to reduce nNonOrthogonalCorrectors to 0 if your mesh is not...

You are takling about ICEM Hexa. This is good for block-structured meshes like wing flows. However, for real complex car shapes you will need lots of time to generate block structered...

ICEM has restrictions regardin
ICEM has restrictions regarding hexcore meshes. Hexas all have the same size. His is not very well suited for Aerodynamic meshes.

Mattia,
i have seen that, too. Looks interesting but has two drawbacks:
* Windows only
*32 Bit only
I Think this is not the way to go for large aerodynamic meshes.
I am also...

is the geometry clean or not (holes, overlappings, small faces,...)?
If your geometry is more or less clean you could try using netgen or salome to create surface and volume meshes...
