Abstract
A motor vehicle includes a motor vehicle body having side frames which support a roof area, the roof area including at least two roof panels which lie flat and parallel in the closed position and can be moved to an open position. The roof panels are constructed so that they can be moved by a guiding mechanism from the flat, parallel closed position into a packed open position completely in the interior of the vehicle body at a distance from the roof region and disposed essentially vertically and parallel to one another.
