  • Publication number: 20240051620
    Abstract: An active air flap apparatus for a vehicle, wherein when an air flap is in a closed state, the air flap may be able to secure strength or robustness with support provided by an actuator and a stopper. The active air flap apparatus may prevent noise and improve aerodynamic performance by preventing undesired movement and vibration of the air flap even when an external force and driving wind act on the air flap in a closed state of the air flap.
