Abstract
A front air spoiler apparatus for an automotive vehicle is provided with first and second air spoilers which are vertically moved by a driving unit. The first and second air spoilers are retracted at a front portion within a vehicle body in an overlapped condition, and set at an operating position so as to be vertically offset. Therefore, in a retracted condition the retracting space for the spoilers is kept small, and in an operating condition the effect front area of the air spoiler is largely increased.
