I have noticed a protruding ridge on the A pillars of some modern cars.
I think the approach is an attempt to channel air towards the roof rather than flowing over the A pillars towards the side windows. At least the high pressure zone over the windshield should be deeper this way allowing for a smoother airflow over the hood and windshield.
