Automotive Sunroofs are made from movable panels installed on the roof of a vehicle, and allow fresh air and light to enter the passenger compartment. This also improves the climate inside the vehicle. Auto sunroofs are available in a variety of shapes and sizes, and can be motorized or manually operated. They increase the comfort of the passengers in the vehicle and provide superior illumination during daytime.
While the sunroof is an attractive feature, it is also a significant safety concern. While it's easy to enjoy the view from the sunroof on a sunny day, the added weight of the roof creates a secondary point of infiltration for rain. Besides allowing more water to enter the interior, sunroofs also pose a distraction to the driver while driving. These sunroofs also have the potential to break the seals over time due to excessive exposure to sunlight.
Market Dynamics:
Several factors are driving the global Automotive Sunroof Market, including significant growth in the automobile industry. Rising per capita income and consumer spending are fueling increased sales of passenger cars. Another important factor driving the automotive sunroof market is the development of light reactive windows. These technologies can reduce the amount of light that comes into the interior of a vehicle and also help with air conditioning efficiency.
Although the Global Automotive Sunroof Market is expected to expand at a moderate pace during the forecast period, factors inhibiting market growth include high integration and maintenance cost.
