摘要: An air flow control system for an off-road vehicle includes a first movable side panel (16) configured to be positioned proximate lateral surface of body engine hood the vehicle. The also controller receive signal indicative temperature vehicle, access desired range from storage device, and output third one or more actuators instructions move laterally outward relative enable through gap between when indicates that is greater than range.
