Abstract
A roof system () for a cabriolet vehicle () has a folding top () that is movable between a deployed position and a retracted position covered by a folding-top compartment lid (). A side fin () is movable from a use position, in which the side fin () forms a rearward elongation of a support pillar (), into a pivoted-away position, in which the side fin () is swiveled away from the folding-top compartment lid () about a swivel axis and into a pivoted-in position in which the side fin () is below the folding-top compartment lid (). Movement of the side fin () away from the folding-top compartment lid () enables the side fin () to be positioned closer to or in the range of movement of the folding top () and the folding-top compartment lid () during movement between the deployed and retracted positions.
