The present disclosure relates to a hinge arrangement (11) adapted to be located at an end portion (15, 17) of a bonnet (5) of a vehicle (3)and being transitable between a normal state and a deployed state. The hinge arrangement comprises a hinge portion (19), a bracket portion (21) and a deployment guiding element (23). The hinge portion comprises a first member (25), a second member (27) and a hinge pivot axis (A1) providing a hinged connection between the first member and second member. The bracket portion is arranged to be in a fixed position relative to the first member during movement in the hinged connection. Further, the bracket portion is arranged to be translationally displaced as a whole at least in a vertical direction in relation to the first member of the hinge portion during the transition of the hinge arrangement between the normal state and the deployed state, the deployment guiding element being adapted to control the transition, the hinged connection being inactive during the transition. The deployment guiding element comprises a deformation control means (51, 55, 59) configured to make the deployment guiding element deformable at a preselectable force level in the deployed state of the hinge arrangement, such that the bracket portion is displaceable towards the first member.
