ABSTRACT:
A folding top for a motor vehicle has a tensioning bow which is arranged on the rearward side of the vehicle and interacts with the folding-top linkage by way of front and rear wind-resisting rods. In order to achieve a taut tensioning of the folding-top covering and avoid a downward and lateral bulging-out of the wind-resisting rods, a supporting device is provided between the tensioning bow and a common connecting area of the two wind-resisting rods. The supporting device, when the folding top is in its closed position, form-lockingly extends around the two wind-resisting rods from below and on both sides of the two wind-resisting rods.
