Zusammenfassung:	A vehicle assembly includes a body including a pair of laterally spaced body members and a front roof rail and a rear roof rail spanning between the body members. The body members together with the front and rear roof rails support a roof structure. The body is formed of a steel or steel alloy. The roof structure includes a roof panel, a roof stiffener, a forward connecting member and a rearward connecting member. The roof structure is formed of aluminum or an aluminum alloy. The roof structure is bonded to the body via an adhesive. A plurality of bolts is installed along adhesive application areas between the body and the roof structure. At least one bolt connects the forward connecting member to the front roof rail and at least one bolt connects the rearward connecting member to the rear roof rail. La présente invention concerne un ensemble de véhicule comprenant un corps comportant une paire d'éléments de corps espacés latéralement et un longeron de toit avant et un longeron de toit arrière s'étendant entre les éléments de corps. Les éléments de corps associés aux longerons de toit avant et arrière supportent une structure de toit. Le corps est en acier ou en alliage d'acier. La structure de toit comprend un panneau de toit, un raidisseur de toit, un élément de raccordement vers l'avant et un élément de raccordement vers l'arrière. La structure de toit est en aluminium ou en alliage d'aluminium. La structure de toit est assemblée au corps par l'intermédiaire d'un adhésif. Une pluralité de boulons est disposée le long des zones d'application d'adhésif entre le corps et la structure de toit. Au moins un boulon raccorde l'élément de raccordement vers l'avant au longeron de toit avant et au moins un boulon raccorde l'élément de raccordement vers l'arrière au longeron de toit arrière.
