Just wondering what this is exactly. Red arrow in photo pointing to the object in question. I also noticed the grill louvers look like they can move. Are they Active louvers?

The sensor you point to is the radar for the active cruise control. Yes, the louvers are active and open or close based on the cooling needs of the electrical system.
