ABSTRACT:
A shade cover for a motor vehicle, which is usable when the motor vehicle is in operation as well as parked or in storage. The cover includes a rigid panel with a top surface, a bottom surface, a body portion, and an edge portion and has an area greater than the area of the vehicle's roof. The cover further includes a securing member for attaching the panel in a spaced relationship and at its bottom surface to the motor vehicle's roof. A reflective outer layer extends continuously across the top surface throughout the area of the panel. The body portion of the panel has an area substantially equal to the area of the vehicle's roof and presents the periphery from which the edge portion extends angularly outwardly and downwardly for providing shade to the vehicle's interior. At least a portion of the edge portion is transparent to allow a passenger of the vehicle to see therethrough. The cover also includes a ventilating louver member formed in the panel.
