Australia Automotive Sunroof Market

Australia Automotive Sunroof Market Overview:

The Australia automotive sunroof market size reached USD 322.00 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 657.50 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 7.40% during 2025-2033. The market is witnessing significant growth due to rising consumer demand for premium vehicle features, increased sales of SUVs and luxury cars, and greater awareness about vehicle aesthetics and ventilation benefits. Technological innovations, such as panoramic and solar sunroofs, are further enhancing appeal. Automakers are incorporating sunroofs even in mid-range models to attract buyers, thereby contributing to the growing Australia automotive sunroof market share.

Australia Automotive Sunroof Market Trends:

Rising SUV and Luxury Car Sales

Australia’s automotive landscape has seen a notable shift towards SUVs and luxury vehicles both of which frequently feature sunroofs as standard or optional equipment. SUVs have become the vehicle of choice for many Australian families and individuals offering space, safety, and advanced features. Simultaneously, the luxury car segment continues to grow with brands like BMW, Audi, and Mercedes-Benz experiencing strong demand. Sunroofs particularly panoramic variants enhance the appeal of these vehicles by offering added comfort, ventilation, and a premium in-cabin experience. Consumers increasingly view sunroofs as a desirable feature contributing to enhanced resale value and vehicle aesthetics. This trend is pushing both global and local manufacturers to integrate sunroofs more widely across their line-ups. For instance, in June 2023, Mahindra announced the launch of its flagship global SUV the XUV700 in Australia showcasing a modern design and advanced technology, including a panoramic sunroof. Available in two variants and five colors, this SUV aims to cater to Australian consumers with a focus on style, safety, and performance. As SUV and luxury car sales rise, they directly drive the growth of sunroof installations in the Australian market.

Growth of Panoramic and Multi-Panel Sunroofs

Panoramic and multi-panel sunroofs are becoming increasingly popular among Australian consumers due to their ability to enhance natural lighting, cabin aesthetics, and ventilation. Unlike traditional single-panel designs, panoramic sunroofs stretch across both front and rear seats, offering a more immersive driving experience. Initially limited to luxury and high-end models, these advanced sunroof options are now being incorporated into mid-range vehicles as automakers respond to shifting consumer preferences. Buyers are prioritizing comfort and style, and panoramic sunroofs are seen as a mark of sophistication and modern design. For instance, in February 2025, Geely announced its plans to launch its EX5 electric SUV in Australia. It features a 160kW electric motor, a range of up to 430km, and a panoramic sunroof in the flagship Inspire trim, competing against the Tesla Model Y and other EVs. Additionally, improvements in materials and sealing technologies have made these features more reliable and affordable. As demand grows across vehicle segments, manufacturers are expanding sunroof offerings across their portfolios, making panoramic and multi-panel designs a significant contributor to Australia automotive sunroof market growth.
