Hyundai Creta
One of the most affordable SUVs available with a panoramic sunroof is this one. The updated 2020 Creta features a new design and additional features that are at par when compared with its older generation or SUVs from its segment.
Hyundai Creta offers a one-touch panoramic sunroof in both SX and SX(O) trims. The ex-showroom Delhi price for the SX model in 1.5L petrol starts from Rs 13.46 lakh, making it one of the most affordable SUVs to offer a panoramic sunroof. The new-gen Creta comes with two petrol 1.5L and 1.4L and one diesel that is 1.5L option.

MG Hector
After the Creta, the Hector is one of the affordable SUVs with a panoramic sunroof. The SUV is just a year old but has gained loads of popularity among the Indian masses. The top-spec Sharp trim is offered in both petrol and diesel trim which comes with a panoramic sunroof.
MG Hector is famous for being an internet car is it provides as many as 50+ connected features. This means you can take control of the functions present in the SUV with just your smartphone. The prices of the Hector range from Rs 12.84 lakh to Rs 17.89 lakh, ex-showroom, Delhi.
Tata Harrier
Also known as India's SUV, this one has its fate. It was brought into the Indian market in 2019 and was an instant hit because of its futuristic design. However, with the limited number of features and competition like MG Hector and Kia Seltos came in, which lost its pace. In 2020, Tata relaunched the Harrier with improved features, design, and changes under the hood.
Tata also introduced a massive panoramic sunroof which increased the point of the SUV. The sunroof equipped model XZ Plus is priced at Rs 18.75 lakh, ex-showroom, Delhi. Although it is on a higher side of the margin, Tata fanboys might consider this one with the 170 bhp under the hood and the solid driving like a tank.

Upcoming MG Hector Plus
The six-seater version of the regular Hector, the Plus variant, comes with an extra bench at the last row and provides new features, updated dimensions, and a tweaked front and rear design. The six-seater version gets an additional 40mm of length to accommodate third row of passengers. Also, the middle row receives captain seats.
This upcoming SUV rivals the Tata Gravitas, and we expect that this one will get a panoramic sunroof for under Rs 20 lakh. It will continue with the similar 1.5-litre petrol, and 2.0-litre FCA sourced diesel engine. The petrol-hybrid comes with a 6-speed manual only, while the regular petrol is available with both stick shift and a DCT gearbox. The 2.0L diesel makes 170 bhp and is available only with a 6-speed manual unit.
Volkswagen T-Roc
It's interesting as this one is a CBU unit, and reports suggest that Volkswagen has managed to sell almost all units of the T-Roc. It comes in a single 1.5-litre turbo petrol which makes 147 bhp and is offered in a single trim. That comes with a panoramic sunroof, and it is priced at Rs 19.99 lakh, ex-showroom, Delhi. The SUV rivals Hyundai Tucson, Jeep Compass and Skoda Karoq.
