a roof cladding arrangement and a roof substructure, which is at least partially covered by the roof cladding arrangement, and at least one environment sensor for charting a vehicle environment and another electrical installation for emitting and/or receiving electromagnetic radiation,

wherein the roof cladding arrangement comprises a visor which has a groove-free outer visible surface, wherein the environment sensor and the other electrical installation are disposed beside each other or above one another behind and/or below the visor and wherein the visor has a first transmission area having a first transmission behavior for the environment sensor and a second transmission area having a second transmission behavior for the other electrical installation, the second transmission behavior differing from the first transmission behavior; and

wherein the visor is a multicomponent injection-molded part and a first plastic material component forms a support and a second plastic material component forms a coating in the form of an injection-molded section.

2 . The vehicle roof according to claim 1 , wherein the visor has a visor base area with the support, whose entire area is permeable to radiation having the wavelengths used by the environment sensor and by the other electrical installation.
