The invention concerns an upper cross-member (10, 38) for motor vehicle front unit, said unit comprising a cowl (12) and a hood, the cross-member including a rigid part (22, 40) provided with means for being fixed to the vehicle structure (16). Said cross-member comprises a deformable part (24, 42) adapted to continuously position the upper edge (20) of the cowl along the hood, configured so that in case of deformation imposed on the cowl (12), said deformable part (24, 42) should accompany the upper edge (20) by distributing, along the cross-member (10, 38), the movements of the upper edge in the longitudinal direction (X) of the vehicle.
