It violates the laws of physics, actually. The fans contribute to the overall CD of the vehicle, increasing wind drag. They in turn do not produce enough energy to even keep the car moving. Perhaps if you lived in Tornado Alley they would recharge the batteries while you're stopped, but while moving, it's useless.
