Sunroofs have quickly gone from being a luxury-car indulgence to a highly desirable feature in the mass market. While not every buyer considers them essential—according to a Park+ Research Labs study, only about 11% of surveyed car owners listed sunroofs as a must-have—they remain one of the most in-demand additions.
What’s more, panoramic sunroofs, which stretch across almost the entire roof to flood the cabin with natural light, are no longer restricted to premium vehicles. Several mainstream brands now offer them in their more affordable SUVs. Here’s a look at the 10 cheapest ICE-powered cars in India that come with a panoramic sunroof.

9. Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder
