This is a small wind-powered car that I designed for a simple project. For fun (and to help it travel in a straight line), I also designed interconnecting rails/tracks.
To move, the car requires an external force. For my project, I propelled it along the rails with a computer fan. Of course, it can also be pushed, rolled down an incline, blown with your mouth, or moved in any other fashion you can think of. To effectively move it with air/wind, a sail should be attached to the mast. I made mine out of a small piece of paper.
Here's a video of it in action:
