The invention relates to a motor vehicle with a roof, comprising a moving flexible roof region, provided with a cover, embodied such that the roof comprises a further roof region separate from the flexible region and divided into rigid roof sections, whereby in the fully open roof position the flexible roof region lies below a rigid roof section extending over the same in the form of a cover.

Motor vehicle with an at least partly mobile roof

This invention relates to a cabriolet vehicle with a roof with a flexible cover in at least parts of its area, including a front roof area which can be stored in the same orientation as in the closed state in a body recess, which is bounded on the rear by an edge of the auto body. The outer surface of the front roof area is separated relative to the rear roof area lying farther rearward and provided with a cover, and the rear edge of the front roof area is adapted to the trend of the edge of body bounding the body recess on the rear.

Cabriolet vehicle

A convertible vehicle with a roof having a roof covering and several lateral frame parts, which at least partially span the roof covering when roof is closed and follow each other in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, in which a rear frame part extends from a window parapet line with an upward extending component. The adjacent frame part, preceding the rear frame part in the direction of travel when the roof is closed, can be moved without a force transfer through the rear frame part by at least one drive provided for roof opening, and the rear frame part is suspended on a gear mechanism that transfers the drive force and can be moved by it.

Convertible

A cabriolet vehicle with a roof provided which at least in some areas has a flexible cover, which includes in its front roof area a rigid area, a so-called roof top, overlapped by a cover. The front roof area can be stored in the same orientation as in the closed state in a body recess, and the body recess is bounded on the rear by an edge serving as a front edge of the additional body outer surface extending to the rear. The edge is preceded at least in parts of it area by a support step for a flexible lining running from the edge to an area of the roof. The step is adapted to the contour of the edge.
