Panoramic Sunroof?

Hello all,

Just put a deposit down on an EV6 here in Canada :) I was wondering whether anyone has information regarding a panoramic glass roof for the EV6. The Ioniq 5 marketed theirs quite ferociously, but it's pretty quiet on the EV6 front.

Based on pics, seems like only the GT has a 1/2 glass roof. Seems strange that other trims, such as the GT-line does not have any, let alone a small sunroof.

I don't know the answer, but I hate sunroofs, totally useless IMO, better off with solar panel on top.

I'm sure all the trims will have the standard size room as an option. The much larger sunroof will only come on the IONIQ 5 as an option. However, what I find inconsistent with both models is the availability of driver-side ceiling grab handels with the sunroof. Some sunroof models have them while others don't. Maybe they come with some sort of luxury package?
have a look at the opening of this vid... (just for your information: the man in the vid is 192 cm, that should be 6 foot 5 inches...

Hey - congratulations on the deposit!

From Canada as well and I am curious how/where you were able to put down a deposit?
Here's an image showing the sunroof opened and positioned over the roof.

Pano = IONIQ 5
Small operational sunroof = EV6
I prefer a smaller sunroom that opens than a large glass roof that doesn’t.

My current CX-5 has a smaller sunroof, very happy with it. The Cherokee before had a pano roof and felt it was a little too much "bling" for me. I like things to be simple.

Tend to agree, a solar roof is far more useful
if they provide the option, like they do for the Ioniq5, I'll probably buy one !

Welcome to the forum @Al07! I solar roof would be neat but I've always been skeptical about whether or not they make that big of a difference on car's range.

yeah.. sure ..if you live in Scotland, it's a bit hard to justify it 😉
but I am living in South of France 😇

Although a solar roof is more useful and will add range, what we actually get won't be that much, but it's something. The 2021 Sonata Hybrid for example gets 2 miles more a day thanks to its roof.

How long do you plan to own the EV6? If long enough, the solar roof makes a lot of sense.

I agree, fools of things sunroofs. Hope the first addition can option it out. Soale panels heavy and tiny wattage generally.

At Aylmer Kia in Quebec. For $500. In Ontario they’ll want to charge you more ($1000) with no guarantees. In QC they’re mandated by law (from what I’ve been told) to keep it down to $500 and it to be fully refundable at any point.

Here in Denmark I have the possibility to order sunroof to all trim-levels. It's sadly not a panoramic roof, but a standard sunroof, that retracts on top of the roof. Hope it does not make to much noise when open.
Ioniq 5 has NO sunroof. Only the glass roof that is NOT operational.
