Abstract
A top for a convertible vehicle includes a rigid moveable roof part with an outer surface and an inner surface, a linkage moveable relative to the roof part during an opening movement of the convertible top, and a cover including a flexible sheet-like element. The linkage is disposed between the outer surface of the roof part and the cover in a closed state of the convertible top. The cover is moveable away from the roof part during the opening movement of the convertible top so as to form a space for the linkage.
