Top 9 Cars with panoramic sunroof under INR 20 lakh

In our earlier listicle, we shared the list of the most affordable cars under INR 10 lakh with a sunroof. Since we picked the affordable end of the market, all the cars in that list offered a single-pane sunroof. However, the double-pane sunroof, which is also regarded as a panoramic sunroof, is the more aspirational feature among buyers compared to a single-pane unit. Since it is larger and generally seen in more expensive models, we have compiled a list of cars offering panoramic sunroof under INR 20 lakh ex-showroom.
