At the 1997 Detroit Motor Show, Karmann presents a most innovative study of a cross-country vehicle, the ”Open-View.” This car is equipped with a ”Rigid Retracting Roof,” a new and innovative roof system. It is made of three glass parts that may be folded together and stored in the luggage compartment. Except for the front window, all the other windows may also be lowered entirely into the body.
