I’m split on the panoramic roof. Part of me thinks these are pretty darn cool. On the other hand, I feel it might be too distracting. What is a panoramic sunroof? It is a sunroof that extends over a larger area of the vehicle’s roof.
This is a hot feature that many love, and if you’re considering upgrading to an SUV with a panoramic sunroof, here are some of the best options on the market.

1) 2022 Kia Sorento
The 2022 Kia Sorento offers a large, dual-pane panoramic roof with a power shade, another cool feature that allows you to block out the sun when needed. The Sorento also offers a variety of other features that make it a great SUV, such as
- 18-inch black aluminum wheels
- Heated mirrors
- Heated front seats
- Leather-wrapped steering wheel
- Wireless device charging
- Integrated navigation
- Driver assisted parking assist
These are just a few of the features that make the Sorento an excellent SUV choice, and the panoramic sunroof is a nice added touch.
2) 2022 Chevy Trailblazer
The Chevy Trailblazer also offers an optional panoramic sunroof with a power sunshade with the Sun and Liftgate package. The sweet SUV comes with tons of perks, including:
- LED fog lights
- Automatic high beams
- Tinted rear windows
- Heated front seats
- Heated steering wheel
- 18-inch wheels
- Household-style power outlet
Another reason I love the 2022 Chevy Trailblazer is it has an off-road trim level and a premium Bose audio system.
3) 2022 Subaru Forester Panoramic Sunroof
The 2022 Subaru Forester is a top SUV on my wish list. These differ from the other models because the Forester offers the panoramic sunroof as a standard feature. This means it comes with every trim level.
However, the Forester provides so much more than the other SUVs. My father bought a new Subaru with the EyeSight suite driver-assistance features, such as
- Upgraded camera sensors to improve the SUV’s operating range for automatic emergency steering
- Automated emergency front and rear braking
- Adaptive LED headlights
- Driver condition monitor
He feels safer driving, and I feel better about him driving with these safety features.
Other features include:
- Premium 9-speaker Harman Kardon Stereo
- Navigation
- Leather seats
- Heated steering wheel
- Power liftgate
Dad’s happy with the perks of the 2022 Subaru Forester.
4) The 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee
I’m a fan of the re-introduced Jeep Grand Cherokee. So, it comes as no surprise I’ve added the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a dual-pane panoramic sunroof available to my wish list. It’s available with the Limited and higher trim levels.
The 2022 SUV from Jeep comes in seven trim levels and offers a ton of optional features, such as:
- Heated front seats
- Power liftgate
- Wireless device charging
- Leather upholstery
- Heated front seats
- Intersection assist
- Traffic sign recognition
As I said, the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee has everything, even a terrain management system with the Summit trim level and a unique 19-speaker McIntosh stereo system. Wow!
5) 2022 Volvo XC40
I’m not a fan of compact SUVs, so it’s not for me. But anyone in a city area or who wants a smaller SUV to park easier, the Volvo XC40 is an excellent choice. The panoramic sunroof is available on all trims, making it another advantage of the Volvo.
Other features of the Volvo XC40:
- Adaptive LED headlights
- Automatic High-beam headlights
- Rain-sensing windshield wipers (another feature on my wish list!)
- Heated front and rear seats
- Leather interior
- oncoming collision mitigation
- Automatic emergency braking
Even to someone who writes about vehicles for a living, other new features are the power-folding headrests. The features just keep getting better every year!

The Titanium Elite package even adds an automated parking system and head-up display with a premium stereo system.

I have a friend that loves her Toyota RAV4, so I had to include it on my list. The Prime XSE trim has a panoramic glass roof and several other perks that have me seeing what my friend likes so much.
