A vehicle includes a grille assembly, a radiator, and a bumper reinforcement beam. In addition, the vehicle includes an air deflector assembly that further includes an air deflector body portion that extends away from the radiator in the vehicle longitudinal direction over the bumper reinforcement beam and toward the grille assembly. The air deflector body portion includes an upper wall portion and an intermediate wall portion. The intermediate wall portion intersects the upper wall portion at an angle. The air deflector body portion includes a lower wall portion that is offset from the upper wall portion in the vehicle lateral direction by the upper wall portion. The intermediate wall portion intersects the lower wall portion at an angle so to facilitate collapsing of the air deflector body portion upon a vertical impact by a leg impactor during a pedestrian leg impact test.
