Abstract
A motor vehicle folding top with a roof peak (12) which is movably supported via a driven carriage (17) on the guide rail (10) of the respective side roof rail (2) and which can be placed in the closed position of the folding top against the apron (8) or the like, the drive part (40) which is movably supported on the respective guide rail (10) being coupled to the carriage (17) via a coupling means (42, 43) which during lengthwise displacement of the carriage (17), in the open position of the folding top, forms a rigid coupling, and on the last path of motion when the roof peak (12) is being closed, transfers the closing motion with increased force to the carriage (17) by stepping down the drive motion.
