A vehicle 30 has a body 32 and a stabiliser device 34 for reducing fluid‑dynamic drag of vehicle 30. Stabiliser 34 is arranged on a lateral surface of vehicle body 32 (for example on or adjacent a door, or at a middle of the surface), and includes a stabiliser body 36 whose shape includes a rounded leading portion (for example spherical or parabolic, optionally with a flat nose) and a trailing portion shaped to reduce fluid-dynamic drag along the lateral surface of vehicle body 32, for example a planar or ducktail shaped tail which may comprise an indentation; the overall shape may be a teardrop. Fins may be provided on stabiliser body 36 under the leading and trailing portions. A support limb 38 may be provided between vehicle body 32 and stabiliser body 36 to define a gap between the two. Stabiliser body 36 may have a cavity, and may include a light, camera or sensor.
