Abstract

This invention relates to an actuated aerodynamic air drag reducing apparatus for reducing the air drag of a vehicle, the actuated aerodynamic air drag reducing apparatus being adapted to move between an expanded configuration and a retracted configuration by an actuator on a basis of a signal associated to the behavior of the vehicle. The actuator being connected to a slider selectively connected to a pair of pivotable elongated members for being used between a plurality of configurations.
