The system further includes a controller disposed on the vehicle and communicably coupled to the actuator. The controller is configured to control the actuator based on at least a quality of ambient air. The system further includes an air treatment component for selectively receiving ambient air from the flow control structure. The air treatment component is adapted to treat at least one pollutant present in ambient air.
