Zusammenfassung:A vehicle includes a body structure defining a passenger compartment and a cargo compartment. A first roof panel is disposed over at least part of the passenger compartment and a second roof panel is disposed over at least part of the cargo compartment. A plurality of side panels surround at least the cargo compartment. A plurality of extensions are fixed to the second roof panel and coupled to the side panels. The extensions and the second roof panel are movable relative to the first roof panel and the side panels between a pre-assembled position and a final-assembled position. The second roof panel is disposed closer to the side panels when in the pre-assembled position than when in the final-assembled position. A method of manufacturing the vehicle includes providing the body structure, fixing a plurality of extensions to the second roof panel and coupling the extensions to the side panels.
