Abstract
A vehicle folding top is configured so that, when open, it is deposited in an assigned folding top compartment provided with a hinged compartment lid. At least one device is provided on the folding top compartment lid which, when the hinged compartment lid is closed, supportingly interacts with the folding top structure of the folding top deposited underneath. Thus, on one hand, the overall height of the folding top compartment can be reduced and, on the other hand, clattering noises of the deposited folding top during the driving operation are avoided.
