Abstract

A motor vehicle is equipped with a protective sun shade (13), whose essential mechanical elements are housed in a roof interior space (6), above the headliner (5). The protective sun shade (13) is free of guide rails. Either the sun shade web (14) is sufficiently rigid, or its front edge is supported with the aid of guided guide and push rods (42), (43) in such a way that its front or lower edge (21) is held in contact with the respective pane (8). A gear motor (25) is provided for operating, i.e. retracting and extending the window shade web (14).
