A motor vehicle roof module having a panel component whose outer surface at least partially forms the roof skin of the vehicle roof and serves as an outer sealing surface of the roof module, and at least one environmental sensor by means of which a vehicle environment can be detected during autonomous or semi-autonomous driving of the motor vehicle. The roof module has a kinematic system having a drive and configured to move the at least one environmental sensor from a retracted position into a deployed position, in which the at least one environmental sensor protrudes beyond the roof skin to detect the vehicle environment, and to fix the at least one environmental sensor at least in the deployed position in such a manner that the at least one environmental sensor cannot be moved by an external force.
