Panoramic Sunroofs: A Popular Feature Among Car Buyers
A panoramic sunroof has become quite popular among car buyers nowadays. Who wouldn't want that feeling of airy spaciousness and the premium look it lends to the interiors? Understanding this demand, more and more carmakers are now offering panoramic sunroofs, even in affordable models, to attract customers.
Here we'll discuss the top 10 cars across segments, from SUVs to sedans, expected to have panoramic sunroofs in their India line-up in 2024. This diverse list caters to different budgets and requirements while letting you enjoy the bright and roomy cabin offered by expansive sunroofs.
An Overview of Panoramic Sunroofs
A panoramic sunroof, as the name suggests, is an expansive sunroof that covers a large area of the roof. Unlike regular sunroofs that open at just one spot, panoramic sunroofs stretch from the front windshield to almost the rear windshield. This allows sunlight to enter the cabin uniformly from front to back seats.
Panoramic sunroofs are either fixed, where only the sunshade can be opened or closed, or tilt-and-slide, where the glass panel can be tilted or slid open. Cars with panoramic sunroofs allow fresh air ventilation, give a feel of more space, and make the car's interiors look premium. The glass used is special laminated glazing that blocks UV rays and heat while allowing light in.
