This system makes trucks mimic the force that keeps planes in the air. It occurs when a vehicle collides with an air mass. It works like an “elevator”.

The catch is that raising the truck could save up to 25% fuel, but also reduce tire wear. There is also another benefit: it emits 15% less greenhouse gases.

The aircraft version of the device in a truck consists of a “wind turbine” installed on the roof of a truck to work with the mass of air that the truck moves, thus making it lighter. Its price could be between 12,000 and 15,000 euros; that is, 59,176 soles.
