I think OP meant winding and not windy, but even if not, Teslas (and any other car) are designed to be aerodynamic, not the opposite, so it's quite impossible to yield more energy than it cost in that scenario, even ignoring motor efficiency, regenerative braking efficiency, and every other real world inefficiency.
Windy is a perfectly valid descriptive word for a twisting road.
the confusion in this thread is that windy, as written, could mean there's lots of wind (said "win-dee") or lots of bends (or "winds", said "whine-dee"). "winding" is less ambiguous
Obviously. But `croon` seemed to think that windy was was incorrectly, not just ambiguously: "I think OP meant winding and not windy"
> Teslas (and any other car) are designed to be aerodynamic
Why not design them to be aerodynamic for headwinds, and maximize wind-resistance for tailwinds? I wonder how much energy would be gained.
