A drag reduction apparatus assists with fuel efficiency of mechanical moving objects includes a processor, mechanical mechanism, casing and magnetic pairs that utilizes magnetic repulsion phenomenon for drag reduction. The device further contains a first set of magnets attached to the outer surface and processor attached inside the body; mechanical mechanism attached to the body with pivot joints; casing with second set of magnets on inner surface lowered onto the body attached with first set of magnets and mechanical mechanism. The first set of magnets attached to the body and mechanical mechanism and the second set of magnets attached to the casing form magnetic repulsion pairs creating magnetic levitation of casing while transferring and resisting drag force.
