wind turbines in the front grill to provide charging.The law of the conservation of energy says this will not work. Any charge such turbines produce will be negated by increase aero drag.
I thought that after I posted (honest) but surely they could use clever ducting to channel the used airflow away, this ducting could have smaller turbines at the end for the focused air to be used as well.
Using vanes angled for propulsion could also generate a small amount of thrust. Bit like propeller aircraft but using natural aero for power and battery charging.
I’m off to patent this idea…
