Have you ever wanted to soak in more of the surroundings while driving or just pop your head out for a while and enjoy the sun and the warm breeze?

Some might call sunroof a luxury feature, but that is not the case anymore. By opening the sunroof, you can enjoy more of the bright sunlight during the day or the romantic moonlight at night.
Additionally, sunroofs also serve to increase the ventilation inside an SUV. Since SUVs are larger vehicles, an additional opening to flush out the air and bring in fresh air from outside is always refreshing.
