Sunroof

A Sunroof is a movable panel in a vehicle's roof that allows light and air to enter the cabin, enhancing the driving experience by providing an open, airy atmosphere. Sunroofs come in various designs, including manual or electrically operated versions that can either tilt open for ventilation or slide open, either above the roof or between the vehicle's roof and headliner, to provide a full opening. Some Sunroofs also come with built-in sunshades for times when less light is desired.

Panoramic Sunroofs, which cover a larger portion of the roof, offer expansive overhead views, adding a sense of space and luxury to the vehicle interior. Materials used for Sunroofs include tempered or laminated glass, which can provide UV protection and added safety in the event of an accident.

The integration of Sunroofs into vehicle design involves careful consideration of structural integrity, aerodynamics, and noise insulation to maintain the vehicle's performance and comfort. As a popular feature in modern vehicles, Sunroofs add to the aesthetic appeal and resale value of the vehicle, catering to consumers' desire for a more enjoyable and illuminated driving experience.
