A vehicular electrical power generation system includes an air capture device that is disposed at a vehicle and, when the vehicle is travelling in a forward direction, receives air flow through an inlet of the air capture device. A turbine is in fluid communication with the inlet and, responsive to air flow through the turbine, generates electricity. Electricity generated by the turbine is used to at least one of electrically charge a battery of the vehicle and electrically operate a system of the vehicle.
