A wheel (4) for a vehicle (1) includes a wheel hub unit (9) comprising, in turn, a stator portion (9a) to be coupled to a body (2) of the vehicle (1) by means of suspensions, a rotor portion (9b) and supporting means (9c) supporting the rotor portion (9b) on the stator portion (9a) in a rotatable manner about a rotation axis (H), characterized in that it comprises a plurality of blades (12) for a power absorbing turbomachine and a deployment mechanism (15) carried by a portion between the rotor portion (9b) and the stator portion (9a) and configured to conduct the blades (12) at least between a deployed configuration, in which the blades (12) are arranged so as to form an array of compressor blades adapted to compress an air flow along the rotation axis (H) during the use of the vehicle (1), thereby resulting in a drag on the vehicle (1), and a rest configuration, in which the blades (12) result in less drag on the vehicle (1) than the deployed configuration.
