Best cars with sunroofs, moonroofs, and panoramic roofs

What do you look for in a car when you’re buying a new one? Engine, performance, comfort, infotainment features? Well, those are the very common things that buyers generally look for while making a new car purchase.

 

However, a recent trend shows that there has also been an increasing demand for cars with sunroofs and panoramic roofs and people have been showing affinity towards cars equipped with one rather than those that aren’t. And if you’re looking for a new car and if you too happen to be one of those who likes the sun basking down during the day and likes gazing at the stars in the night, well then you are at the right place.

 

Because we have compiled a list of the best cars with sunroofs, moonroofs, and panoramic roofs. So, whether your budget revolves around an ultra-luxurious Bentley or around a frugal Honda Fit, we’ve got the best ones across segments listed for you.

 

• Rolls-Royce Cullinan

 

Let’s kick off the list with the very best and the most luxurious of them all: the Rolls-Royce Cullinan. The Cullinan is Rolls-Royce’s very first SUV and yes, it gets a sliding/tilting 1st and 2nd-row sunroof. Plus, there’s also a powered sunshade that you slide in place if the sun gets too hot. Prices for the Cullinan start at around $335,200.

 

• Tesla Model S

 

The Tesla Model S perhaps has the largest panoramic sunroof in the car industry. In fact, its entire roof is made out of a single piece of tinted glass and it was the first car in the market to do so. The massive panoramic glass top looks amazing at all times and the view from the glass top of the outside world is just brilliant. The Model is priced at around $90,000

 

• McLaren 720S

 

A moonroof in a supercar is rare but the McLaren 720S has it. And it’s not that McLaren has just slapped a piece of glass on top of but it comes with a neat trick. The supercar gets an electro-chromatic moonroof and you can basically adjust the level of tint on the glass.

 

If you want more sunlight to fall in, you can make it transparent and if you think that the sun’s too bright, you can make the glass dark, all with a push of a button. How cool is that! And this supercar doesn’t come cheap though; it costs a good sum of over $301,000.

 

• Land Rover Defender

 

The tough, rugged Defender has a sliding/tilting sunroof just for the first row and that’s because the Defender also has to allow you to carry stuff on the rest of its roof. However, that doesn’t have to deprive passengers of sunlight and of a chance to gaze outside. The Defender is on the list because in addition to the sunroof it gets a very unique set of windows which Land Rover calls Safari windows.

 

The Safari windows basically are rectangular glass panels mounted on either side of the roof behind the first row so that passengers on the second and the third row gaze outside. They are very unique and you actually can peep out of them while you’re on a jungle safari or an adventure trip. The Defender is priced at around $47,700 and the Safari windows come as standard across all Defender models.

 

Ford F-150

 

Pickup trucks do not generally come with sunroofs/moonroofs as standard and neither does this one. However, the F-150 has the largest moonroof on offer in the segment. Yes, the Ford F-150 with its SuperCrew body configuration offers a twin-panel moonroof as an option and that’s the largest in the segment. Most other trucks in the competition offer the first-row sunroof only. Prices for the F-150 SuperCrew start at around $44,680

 

• Mercedes-Benz S-Class

 

The world’s best sedan has a massive panoramic moonroof that spans all across the length of the cabin. Plus, it gets powered sun blinds separately for the front and the rear passengers. So, if the passengers up front want sunlight to fall on them, they can have the blinds open while if the passengers at back feel that’s a little too bright, they can simply bring the blind on and vice versa. Prices for the Mercedes-Benz S-Class start at about $110,850

 

• Honda Civic

 

The Honda Civic is perhaps one of the most affordable cars to get a moonroof. The Civic gets a first-row, tilting moonroof. Moreover, the moonroof is power operated and you can open, close, and tilt it at a press of a button. It’s interesting how Honda has managed to offer a feature like this in a car whose prices start at about $21,700.

 

• Ford Mustang Mach-E

 

The Ford Mustang Mach-E is a controversial vehicle as it had many people disappointed when Ford announced that an electric SUV will be bearing a Mustang nameplate. Nonetheless, the Mustang Mach-E is yet another interesting vehicle to get a massive panoramic moonroof.

 

It gets a powered sunshade as well and you stop the sunlight from coming in if you feel it’s too hot out there. The Mustang Mach-E costs about $42,900, however, the moonroof is offered as standard with its Premium trim only which is priced at $48,100.

 

• Volvo V90 Cross Country

 

The V90 Cross Country is arguably one of the coolest and the most handsome-looking off-roady station wagons you can buy. And apart from hauling luggage and carrying your family and doing a bit of mild off-roading, the V90 Cross Country also offers an optional massive panoramic moonroof that spans all across the cabin. It isn’t a small vehicle and that’s one of the largest moonroofs you’ll see on a car. The V90 Cross Country costs about $56,000.

 

• Hyundai Venue

The Hyundai Venue is probably the smallest and the cheapest vehicle in the market to get a sunroof. The sub-compact SUV gets a 1st-row power sliding sunroof along with a powered sunshade with an optional Premium package that can be added to its SEL trim. The SEL trim costs around $19,800 and the Premium package costs a shade over $,2300.
