If properly mounted, wind deflectors can reduce aerodynamic drag, thus improving fuel efficiency. Since they let in fresh air inside, they keep the interior space cool, which reduces the amount of times you would need to turn on the air conditioner — thus, decreasing the amount of fuel that is used.
Why do I get worse mpg on the highway?
First and foremost, it’s because city driving is harder on your engine than driving on the highway. This is because your engine has to work harder to stop and start and change speeds frequently when you’re on city streets. This requires more gas (and burns oil faster), and therefore reduces gas mileage.
