A car without a sunroof might not be a dealbreaker, but once you’ve driven with one, it’s hard to go back. That little slice of sky changes everything—more light, more air, and unprecedented vibes. These 20 cars take that feeling up a notch with the best sunroof options around, turning mundane daily drives into something you actually look forward to. Let's dive in!

9. Volvo XC90
Unlike most cars, the XC90’s roof does more than open. The UV-treated sunroof tilts, vents, and, of course, fully opens, and you set it up however you want. A sun blind is also included, which adjusts with the roof or automatically closes when the car locks.
10. Toyota Venza
Available exclusively on the Toyota Venza Limited, the Star Gaze fixed electrochromic glass roof shifts from clear to frosted with a tap. It blocks heat and glare without moving parts, offering instant mood lighting, zero squeaks, and a sleek, low-maintenance alternative to traditional sunroofs.

Optional on select Taycan models and standard on the GTS, Porsche’s “Sunshine Control” roof features preset modes like Clear, Matte, Semi, and Bold. In its default matte state, it softens light. With electric power, it transitions to transparent to offer customizable comfort and visibility.
