    Abstract: A roof for a motor vehicle, in particular for a passenger car, the roof having a support structure, a roof skin at least partially covering the support structure, roof side beams which are part of a vehicle body, and at least one sensor module having an environment sensor for detecting a vehicle environment. The sensor module may be disposed on the support structure and is for a large part located below a reference roof indentation plane which is in tangential contact with one of the roof side beams and inclined relative to a horizontal plane by a first angle (α) in the transverse direction of the roof and by a second angle (β) in the longitudinal direction of the roof.

    Abstract: A roof module for forming a vehicle roof on a motor vehicle comprises a panel component which at least partially forms a roof skin of the vehicle roof, the roof skin serving as an outer sealing surface, a roof opening system having a lid part configured to selectively open and/or close a roof opening, and at least one sensor module having at least one environment sensor. The sensor module is disposed on the roof module in such a manner that it at least partially protrudes in the direction of an opening center of the roof opening. The lid part comprises an indentation surrounding the at least partially protruding part of the sensor module when the lid part is closed, or the lid part at least partially covers the sensor module when the lid part is closed. A motor vehicle can have such a roof module.

    Abstract: A motor vehicle having a vehicle body, a windshield and/or a rear window, and a roof module disposed on the vehicle body as a structural unit and at least partially forming a vehicle roof of the motor vehicle, the roof module having a see-through area, a panel component which at least partially forms a roof skin of the vehicle roof, the roof skin serving as an outer sealing surface, and at least two environment sensors for detecting a vehicle environment. One of the at least two environment sensors is attached to the roof module and configured to send and/or receive electromagnetic signals through the windshield or the rear window in detect a vehicle environment, and another one of the at least two environment sensors is attached to the roof module and configured to send and/or receive electromagnetic signals through the see-through area.
