Yes I know.. it seemed like that from the front.. but why to deflect air there? On the back of the roof? There is nothing to protect... if it's that kind of "wing", well, for sure it was used to make an F1 wing effect IMO

I think it may be for when hes towing a trailer. It looks like he has a trailer hitch on the back and thats usually why I see such wings on trucks like that. But you never know with people nowadays LOL

I do think it's a wind deflector for the trailer that that Espace obviously pulls. If you look at the rear bumper, there's a tow-hitch, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's a large caravan or something that gets pulled behind but wasn't attached when you happened to spot it TT.

Ok now I feel better I really hope it is because of a caravan.. but still the fake alu wheel (just a plastic cover looking like painted lightweight rims with also some chrome, the tinted windows and the face of the drive made me anxious
