The paper Study of the platooning fuel efficiency under ETSI ITS-G5 communications has air-drag reduction curves for passenger cars and HDV depending on platoon position and spacing.
(se Fig 2 & 3 on page 4). I.e. 0%, 2%, 6% and 7% at 20m

The data for passenger cars its taken from The Aerodynamic Performance Of Platoons: A Final Report
whereas the HDV curve comes are cited as coming from AERODYNAMICS OF ROAD
