    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a vehicle sunroof comprising an energized sunroof glass and to a vehicle. The energized sunroof glass comprises a rear glass and a front glass being slidable relative to the rear glass, wherein one of the rear glass and the front glass is electrically connected to a main wire harness of the sunroof, and wherein the vehicle sunroof further comprises an intermediate electrical connection structure configured to electrically connect the front glass to the rear glass when the front glass slides relative to the rear glass to a predetermined position. The vehicle sunroof saves the number of wire harnesses, has a simple structure and high integration, and is easy to control.

    Abstract: A method for detecting a pinching situation when moving an adjustable component for closing an opening by means of an electric motor in a vehicle comprises the following steps: providing a trigger threshold for a closing force exerted by the electric motor on the component or a physical variable on which it is based, with which the electric motor is operated, for at least one movement position of the component within a travel path available to it for the movement; moving the component into the movement position; determining a current value of the closing force or of the physical variable on which it is based for the at least one movement position; comparing the current value and the trigger threshold; and outputting a trigger signal which indicates the pinching situation dependent from the result of the comparison.
