Abstract

The invention relates to a roof unit containing an external roof covering (13) and an inside roof lining (14), and to a floor unit (10) for a horizontally assembled body of a road vehicle such as a passenger car.
The floor unit (10) can be substantially pre-assembled with respect to interior fittings such as wiring, floor covering, seats, control elements and indicating instruments etc. in order to minimize other work processes in the passenger compartment of the car which is formed by assembling the roof unit and floor unit (10). The inside roof lining (14) is configured as a subassembly consisting of an inside roof lining (14), an external roof covering (13) and one or more in-built fittings selected from the following: an inner roof lining, inside trimmings, air bag, sun vizors, inner rearview mirror, inside lighting, wiring, control and display elements, sun-roof, lifting roof, folding roof, laminated roof, glass roof and the frame components thereof, drive elements and roof handholds. The inside roof lining (14) and the floor unit (10) have matching connections at the points where they are to be joined. Rational mass production on conveyor belts can be achieved by assembling the body in a horizontal manner.
