It's just me or somebody else can see a wing on the side of the car? Could that be the trick?
Yes, I see a wing, and a wing needs air flow to work, which this one has.

It's a short aspect wing to be sure, which if I recall correctly needs a higher airspeed to produce lift, or in this case just the opposite.

In which case, the high velocity low mass of the air going though that port would be just about right.
