Fully Automatic Convertible Top: Notes

Fully automatic convertible top Opening and closing the electrohydraulic convertible top are fully automatic. Opening and/or closing the convertible top takes around 22 seconds. If required, this can also be done when the vehicle is moving at low speed (up to 40 km/h).

Here, the convertible top is moved by hydraulic cylinders. An electric motor unlocks and locks the convertible top at the cowl panel.

After opening, the convertible top is stored in the convertible top compartment. Subsequently, the convertible top cover is closed automatically. The convertible top can be operated using 2 buttons in the center console switch cluster.
