Automotive Panoramic Sunroof Market: Overview

A panoramic sunroof is a big sunroof that covers a vehicle's whole roof. It's a lot bigger than a regular sunroof, and it can be transparent or colored. A single complete panel of glass or many panels make up this sunroof. The single panel can simply move toward the back of the car when the roof is opened. The many panels will stack on top of every other to the back of the roof opening in the other form. Furthermore, due to a lack of space, this sunroof does not vanish into the vehicle's top. They're meant to block as much of the view as possible, allowing passengers in the front and back seats to experience the sunlight and fresh air.

COVID-19 Impact:

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on car production has hampered the growth of the global automotive sunroof market since manufacturing facilities have been shut down and the supply chain has been disrupted in several regions of the world. Many glass and fiber sunroof manufacturers struggled to maintain the demand amid COVID restrictions. However, the market is recovering and expected to grow at a rapid rate over the forecast period.

Automotive Panoramic Sunroof Market: Growth Drivers

Upsurge in a revolution in glass technology and increasing demand for convenience & comfort is likely to boost the market growth.

Increased demand for comfort, safety, and aesthetic elements has resulted in several technical developments in automobiles, including the installation of sunroofs that allow for greater air circulation. A broad range of automobiles with panoramic sunroof features is being introduced by leading automotive manufacturers.

In China, for example, Kia Motors Inc., a world-class car manufacturer, has unveiled the new KX3, a sports utility vehicle (SUV). Furthermore, advances in technology can remove fog or ice from windows to improve vision in all weather conditions with improved illumination, hence increasing passenger comfort. As a result, the demand for safety and comfort features in vehicles is increasing, boosting the market for automotive panoramic sunroofs.

Automotive Panoramic Sunroof Market: Restraints

High costs of integration and maintenance may hinder the growth of the market.

Several factors might cause a sunroof to leak or cease operating, including defective motors, faulty tracks, and cracked or chipped glass. Sunroof installation and repair are costly. Rain sensors powered by sliding glass panels, aluminum or plastic handles, and other accessories are less expensive than steel or carbon fiber. These components are combined into a single plate, increasing the weight of the sunroof. They also need extensive maintenance, which is projected to stifle the market for automobile panoramic sunroofs. Furthermore, in low-segment automobiles, power sunroof penetration is minimal which is also contributing to the slow growth of the market.

Automotive Panoramic Sunroof Market: Opportunities

Automotive Panoramic Sunroof Market: Challenges.

Management of issues related to panoramic sunroof may act as a challenge for the key players

Despite everything inside the cabin appears to be roomier due to the natural light, automobiles with a panoramic sunroof have significantly less headroom. The extra glass can make the interior of the vehicle warmer than automobiles without a sunroof during the warmest summer months.

Condensation from the windows may bring moisture to seep inside the cabin during the coldest winter months. In addition to this, lighter cars have greater gas mileage, stop more easily, and accelerate more quickly. This implies that the 200 pounds added by the glass roof may have an impact on your overall handling and stability. Thus, to enhance the performance of the automotive, it is essential to address these issues and overcome them which may act as a major challenge for the market
