Top 3 Affordable Cars with Sunroof in India

Sunroof has been a luxury car’s exclusive feature until now. In the current state of feature and price race among car manufacturers, if the customers are interested in a particular thing, the manufacturers will come out with that feature in a million variations and prices. Since many people are fascinated with the extra open window in the roof of a car (aka the sunroof), what has been a luxury thing is now entering the non-luxury market and more people can own a car with a sunroof for themselves.

Therefore, thanks to the gruelling competition on the part of the manufacturers, we customers have a broad range of cars to choose from and we can get a lot of interesting features, which includes a sunroof, at an affordable price. Even though sunroof is getting more popular, it is still associated with upmarket cars, so if you ever decide to have this added feature to your car, it is going to look more high-end and luxurious. The options for affordable cars with sunroof are still somewhat limited at the moment, but we have compiled a list of top 4 affordable cars with this luxury feature in India, and these cars do not cost more than 15 lakhs, ex-showroom price.

2. Honda WR-V

The Japanese automaker offers the most affordable cars with sunroof till date with the Honda WR-V.

And by some magical power, Honda manages to fit in an expensive sunroof and still keeps the price of the car low. Honda WR-V offers the sunroof feature in two variants, which are Honda WR-V i-DTEC VX (Diesel) and Honda WR-V i-VTEC VX (Petrol). The former costs 10.26 lakhs (ex-showroom) and the latter 9.12 lakhs (ex-showroom).
