Top 5 most affordable cars with a panoramic sunroof in India

Until a few years ago, an electrically-operated sunroof was a feature that was only offered with high-end luxury cars. However, the increasing competition led to mass-market manufacturers introducing this feature on the top-end variants of some relatively affordable cars too. While single-pane electric sunroofs have become pretty common now, dual-pane panoramic sunroofs are still mostly seen on luxury cars and SUVs only, sparing a handful of mass-market offerings.
We have put together a list of the top 5 most affordable cars in India that are offered with a panoramic sunroof, and unsurprisingly, all of them are SUVs. Take a look at the list –
1. Hyundai Creta – SX Executive onwards
Price – Rs 13.41 lakh (ex-showroom) onwards

The Hyundai Creta is the most affordable car in India to be offered with a panoramic sunroof, thanks to its mid-level SX Executive variant, priced at Rs 13.41 lakh (ex-showroom). The top-end variant of the SUV also gets LED headlights and tail lamps, wireless charging, a power-adjustable driver’s seat, ventilated front seats, a 7-inch semi-digital instrument cluster, a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, connected car tech, and more.
2. MG Astor – Sharp
Price – Rs 14.28 lakh (ex-showroom) onwards

The Astor is MG Motor’s most affordable offering in the Indian market, and the mid-size SUV is also offered with a panoramic sunroof on the top-end Sharp variant. This variant is currently priced at Rs 14.28 lakh (ex-showroom), making the Astor the second most affordable SUV in India to be offered with a dual-pane sunroof.
Other features on offer with the top-end trim include a 6-way power-adjustable driver seat, a 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment unit with connected-car tech, a 360-degree camera, ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems), and a personal AI assistant.

The top-end variant of the XUV700 also gets 18-inch alloy wheels, ADAS, dual-zone climate control, Amazon Alexa built-in, connected-car tech, a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a similarly-sized digital instrument cluster, etc.
4. Hyundai Alcazar – All variants

The Hyundai Alcazar was launched as a three-row version of the Creta, and sits between its five-seat sibling and the Tucson in the manufacturer’s Indian portfolio. Currently priced between Rs 16.34 lakh and Rs 20.14 lakh (ex-showroom), a panoramic sunroof is offered with all variants of the Alcazar. The Alcazar is the only mass-market car to be offered with this feature as standard across the range.

5. Tata Harrier – XT+ onwards

The Tata Harrier was initially launched in the country in January 2019 without a sunroof. To keep up with the demand, Tata introduced a single-pane sunroof for the Harrier as an official accessory later that year. It was in 2020 when the mid-size SUV finally got a company-fitted panoramic sunroof, which was introduced with the facelifted model.
The XT+ variant is the most affordable Tata Harrier trim that comes with a panoramic sunroof. It is currently priced at Rs 17.94 lakh (ex-showroom).
