Not necessarily.
The Aerocivic has a nosecone.
You can shape it so that it prevents air from going under the car - where it'll do no good anyway - and guide it over the streamlined body of the car.
Or shape it so that it doesn't push out air to the sides - increasing apparent frontal area, and drag - or at least doesn't push out the air as much , by making the transition from nose to sides more gentle.
