What is the Difference Between a Sunroof and a Moonroof

 

As you browse recent models, you've probably come across something interesting. Some vehicles offer a sunroof, while others provide a moonroof. They sound about the same – an open panel in the vehicle's roof to let light or air inside. However, do you know what makes a sunroof and a moonroof different? Continue reading to learn the differences of a sunroof vs moonroof.

Sunroof vs Moonroof

While both the sunroof and the moonroof are very similar, it's essential to distinguish them when deciding on a vehicle that offers one instead of the other. Ultimately, the two determining factors are material and how the sunroof opens.

What is a Sunroof?

A sunroof is a metal panel that matches the vehicle's body and is not transparent. The sunroof can be removed or tilted open to allow air and light inside. For some models, the panel may retract into or above the roof. An example of a sunroof can be found on many of our Dodge Chargers which can be found. in our inventory.

What is a Moonroof?

Unlike a sunroof, a moonroof is a glass panel. Moonroofs cannot be removed from the vehicle but can slide or tilt open for fresh air and light. Inside the cabin, moonroofs will typically have an interior sliding panel that matches your car's interior color. Passengers can block light as desired, as nothing will cover the glass from the outside. The moonroof is also the more common feature as modern models tend to over it over the less popular sunroof.
