What’s the Difference Between Sunroof and Moonroof?

But what’s the difference between a sunroof and a moonroof? While the terms sunroof and moonroof are often used colloquially to mean the same thing, there are some key differences between the two that you should know before you buy:

• A sunroof is a body-colored panel in the roof that either tilts up to let in extra air, or can be removed manually to let in sun and air.
• A moonroof is a sliding, tinted glass panel that lets in both sun and air at the push of a button.

What is a Panoramic Roof System?

Panoramic roof systems have been found in more Nissan vehicles over the years, and allow both front and rear passengers to enjoy the open-air experience. What sets panoramic roofs apart is their size. They make up almost the entire roof, meaning that the whole top of the car is made of fixed and sliding glass panels. This allows Memphis area drivers maximum sun and multiple air configurations. Typically, the panel over the two front seats can tilt open and/or slide all the way back, while the glass panel over the rear seats remains fixed.
