The present disclosure relates to a hinge arrangement (11) adapted to be located at a rear end portion (17) of a bonnet (5) of a vehicle. The bonnet is displaceable between a closed position and a deployed position. The hinge arrangement is transitable between a normal position and a deployed position. The hinge arrangement comprises a hinge portion (19) adapted to be attached to a body (13) of the vehicle, a bonnet portion (21) adapted to be attached to the bonnet, and a rear deployment guiding element (23) adapted to control the transition of the hinge arrangement between the normal position and the deployed position. The hinge portion comprises one or more hinge pivot axes (A1) providing a hinged connection between the bonnet and the body of the vehicle allowing opening of the bonnet. The bonnet portion is arranged to be in a fixed position relative to an upper portion (25) of the hinge portion during opening of the bonnet. The bonnet portion as a whole is arranged to be translationally displaced at least upwards in relation to the upper portion of the hinge portion during a transition of the hinge arrangement between the normal position and the deployed position, the transition being controlled by the rear deployment guiding element.
