A heavy goods vehicle comprises a driver cabin including a cabin roof, a cabin rear wall, an air deflector and a cooling radiator arranged behind the cabin rear wall. The air deflector has a leading and a trailing edge. The air deflector comprises a pivotal air deflector hood pivotably attached with a leading edge thereof to the cabin roof and a height adjustment unit for adjusting the height of a trailing edge thereof. The air deflector hood comprises a U-shaped and a central section. The U-shaped section comprises a base portion having a read edge and two side portions, each side portion rearwardly extending from a lateral side of the base portion. The central section is arranged between the side portions. The central section of the air deflector hood is pivotably attached to a second horizontal axis positioned at or near the base portion. The height adjustment unit is configured for pivotally moving the central section with regard to the U-shaped section around the second horizontal axis from an aligned position in which top surfaces of the U-shaped and the central section are flush to a deviating position in which the top surface of the central section is positioned closer to the cabin roof than the top surface of the U-shaped section. In the aligned position rear edges of the side portions and a rear edge of the central section form the trailing edge of the air deflector.
