The invention concerns a shock absorbing device (102) for a motor vehicle, comprising two profiled sections which are deformable by compression (106), arranged parallel to each other and intended to be secured in the extension of two longitudinal structural profiled sections (108) of the vehicle, respectively, and a transverse beam (104) secured to the front ends of the deformable profiled sections (106), the beam having a profile that is generally curved towards the front. The device also comprises means for controlled deformation (130) arranged on the transverse beam (104) and configured to act on at least one of the deformable profiled sections (106) during the straightening deformation of said beam, in such a way as to exert a bending torque on the structural profiled section or sections (108).
