A passenger, particularly a convertible, has a top and a rollover protection arrangement. In order to simplify the mounting of the top and the rollover protection device on the vehicle, while the fastening is appropriate with respect to its function, and in order to reduce the assembling time on the assembly line, the rollover protection device and the top are combined to form a pre-assembled constructional unit produced outside the vehicle.

Convertible passenger car

A rollover bar for a motor vehicle, particularly for a convertible, is disclosed which is made up at several mutually connected frame parts and is fastened on its exterior lower ends on the stationary vehicle body. For creating a rollover bar which, while its function is good, can be manufactured in a simple and low-cost manner, requires minimal mounting space and has a low weight, it is provided that the rollover bar comprises internal-high-pressure-formed frame parts.
