An adjustable body skirting assembly and a vehicle that includes the assembly are disclosed. The assembly includes a support structure and a skirt member. The support structure includes a side surfaceand a bottom surface, and the skirt member is supported by the support structure. The skirt member is movable between a deployed position in which the skirt member is disposed transverse to the bottom surface of the support structure such that the skirt member and the side surface cooperate with each other to define a wall configured to redirect an airflow away from the bottom surface, and a retracted position in which the skirt member retracts relative to the side surface such that the wall is removed which allows the airflow to interact with the bottom surface. The assembly includes an actuator coupled to the skirt member and configured to move the skirt member to the deployed and retracted positions. 种可调节车身裙部组件和车辆，该车辆包括上述组件。该组件包括支承结构和裙部构件。支承结构包括侧表面和底部表面，且裙部构件由支承结构支承。该裙部构件能在展开位置和缩回位置之间移动，在展开位置中，该裙部构件横向于支承结构的底部表
