Body part for use as a vehicle roof comprises a material composite with an outer shell arranged on a support and a deformation zone for absorbing kinetic energy

摘要

Vehicle body part, especially a vehicle roof, comprises a material composite with an outer shell (16) arranged on a support (18) designed as a layer. The material composite is provided with at least one deformation zone (20) for absorbing kinetic energy. Preferred Features: The deformation zone is formed by a reduction in the wall thickness of the material composite and extends perpendicularly or longitudinally to the vehicle extension. A reinforcing panel is placed over the deformation zone.
