An aperture on the top of the car called an automotive sunroof lets light and fresh air into the inside of the car. By improving air circulation and supplying enhanced brightness and illumination during the day, it raises the comfort level of passengers. Depending on the type of car, sunroofs are either transparent or opaque panels that can be opened manually or electrically. They come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and styles. The need for sunroofs is now rising as original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) create cutting-edge methods to make them, such as composite materials for creating lightweight sunroof solutions.

Scope of the Report:

Automotive Sunroof Drive Market Drivers:

The development of glass technology and the rise in demand for convenience, comfort, and safety features are the main drivers behind the growth of the worldwide automotive sunroof market. A power sunroof's poor penetration in low-segment automobiles and high integration and maintenance costs, however, restrain market expansion. Additionally, it is projected that during the projection period, the market would have plenty of potentials to grow due to the rise in penetration of solar sunroofs in electric vehicles and boosting vehicle sales.

The growing trend among automakers to offer car sunroofs as an optional feature in the majority of passenger automobiles is one of the main drivers promoting growth. The sector is anticipated to benefit from expanding auto production and expanding sales of luxury and high-end vehicles.

Automotive Sunroof Drive Market Restraints:

The laminar airflow creates a turbulent top of extra drag when the sunroof is open while traveling at high speeds, which affects the aerodynamics of the vehicle. Because it's made of glass, it may break. The cost of replacement/repairs will be significant if it occurs.

A significant factor that is anticipated to restrain the growth of the global automotive sunroof market over the forecast period is the increase in sunroof-breaking incidents. Sunroof-shattering incidents have been reported all over the world, which has had a substantial negative impact on the adoption of sunroof systems, particularly in areas with severe weather. Despite the fact that these incidents did not result in any serious injuries, people are nevertheless hesitant to choose sunroofs for their cars. As a result, it is anticipated that this factor will slow market expansion.

Automotive Sunroof Drive Market Opportunities:

Over the forecast period, the global automotive sunroof market is expected to provide industry participants with a wealth of development prospects due to the increasing penetration of solar sunroofs in electric vehicles (EVs) and an increase in vehicle sales worldwide. The automotive sector is concentrating on sustainability thanks to several firms. Electric automobiles with solar sunroofs can use the energy captured from the sunroof to power some of the amenities in the car. 

For example, Mercedes-Benz unveiled the Vision EQXX in January 2022, a new electric vehicle featuring tiny crystalline solar cells on the top that produce energy to run the lighting, a climate blower, an infotainment system, and other functions of the vehicle.

Over the course of the projected period, continuous technological advancement in electric car sunroofs is likely to open up new potential prospects. Automobile and component makers, including those that make sunroofs, are putting more of a focus on research and development activities to create products that expand the range of hybrid and electric vehicles as the globe transitions to electric transportation. The worldwide automobile sunroof market is thereby anticipated to increase as a result of this feature in the coming years.
