Adding a wind deflector has several benefits for any kind of car. Some will be immediate and others will take time to be evident. Here are three benefits to adding a wind deflector to your car.
Improved gas mileage. At nearly $4 a gallon any additional miles per gallon are a bonus. An open window adds aerodynamic drag, which lowers fuel efficiency. A wind deflector keeps the air moving over an open window or sun roof to prevent that loss of gas mileage.
Less dust and noise. One of the chief complaints about having a car window open is the noise. Another is the dirt flying in. Window deflectors prevent both by allowing the air to flow over the opening.
Reduces sun damage to interiors. This is not a commonly thought of benefit from a wind deflector. Most deflectors are a smoky colored polycarbonate and eliminate some of the UV rays, thus helping to protect a car’s interior.
A simple wind deflector can do all of that for your car. Almost makes you rethink life, doesn’t it?
