Net loss of energy and regenerative breaking easier and more efficient to implement.
This is going to sound offensive, but this is why basic physics knowledge is important. Or you’re a troll and the downvotes are deserved, but let’s go uneducated first.
Ok, so uneducated, angry and easily offended. Happy to explain step by step but you need to check your attitude.
First of all, wind turbines are about 20-40% efficiency at turning wind energy into electric energy. So using an engine to create wind that then spins a turbine will only give you about 30% back - the rest is lost to drag, friction between gears an moving parts. Effectively, put a fan infront of a wind turbine and you lose three times the energy you get back. Put this in a car, the drag the turbine will produce spinning will use up 3 times the energy to keep the car moving compared to what you get. This drag from a spinning turbine is soo much that propeller planes have automatic systems in place that an engine failure won’t make a plane uncontrollable by stopping the prop windmilling as much as possible. This doesn’t matter for wind turbines as they 1, don’t have to make themselves move, and 2, don’t have to carry their own weight around.
In short, what you will get from doing this is drain the battery 3 times faster than you top it up. I.e pointless.
To answer your last point - yes, unlike you every engineer, scientist and designer in existence is too stupid to do this, patent their discovery and make billions in extending the range of EVs. That is the logical conclusion to take.
You need to accept that this is something that people have already thought of and tried. You’re not an engineer. Getting your undies in a wad because a bunch of people are giving you the same correct answer doesn’t change the laws of thermodynamics.
But since you’re such a super genius who knows it will work, why don’t you build it and change the world?

How about, Fuck off jackass…
Explain, step by step,… How captured incoming wind force can’t spin some type of turbine blade enough to give a little boost to battery capacity?
Or, are you saying engineering is too stupid to figure out a positive effect system on EVs?

My attitude is fine, jackass. You’re a fucking moron for mentioning engine use.
Doesn’t understand and wants it explained step by step then calls the person a moron for explaining it.
I don’t mind talking with uneducated people who want to learn, but you’re deliberately making yourself as stupid and inflammatory as possible.
I had a note on you “uninformed and angry” incase I saw you again - you’re now “deliberate fuckwit” and I hope I never do.
