What is S panoramic sunroof?
A panoramic sunroof is a larger-than-average sunroof able to open and let in light and some fresh air. Nomenclature varies, but sunroof, moonroof, and “Vista” roof are all talking about the same thing.
Why do people stop using the panoramic sunroof?
Often it is simply too hot, too cold or too windy to drive with the roof down – and as a result the driver eventually stops using it. From what I’ve seen, panoramic sunroof equipped vehicles often suffer a similar fate. Like a convertible, a panoramic sunroof by design is an ‘all or nothing’ proposition.
What kind of car has a panoramic sunroof?
There’s nothing I love more than the look of a vehicle with a panoramic sunroof. Whether you’re looking at the new Mercedes-Benz C-Class or a Kia Stinger, vehicles equipped with full black tinted glass roofs simply look the business.
Can a car be parked with the sunroof open?
In most vehicles, you can’t have the sunroof open unless the internal sunshades are completely retracted, meaning the entire vehicle is open to the sun. This makes it pointless to leave the sunroof open or tilted whilst parked (in an effort to vent hot air from the vehicle) as the glass roof will let in far more heat than the sunroof can expel.
What to do if your car has panoramic roof?
Retracting the sunshade or opening the sunroof often doesn’t fix the issue, either, as the opening itself doesn’t go far enough across in relation to where the driver’s head is located.
