Moonroof vs. Sunroof: What's the Difference?

Sunroof on an SUV

Are you letting the sun or the moon through the roof of your car when you’re driving through Stephenville? And what is the difference between a sunroof and moonroof, anyway? It’s pretty simple: A sunroof is made of glass or metal that slides open or pops up to allow light to flow into the cabin. The difference between a sunroof and a moonroof is the latter is a clear or tinted glass that can slide between the roof and headliner, tilting open for fresh air. Learn more with Bayer Auto Group:

What are Panoramic Roof Systems?

Panoramic roof systems are becoming the most popular roof systems, no matter the difference between a sunroof and a moonroof.
