Is the Ai3's sunroof going to be a game changer or just a gimmick?
Sunroof is an interesting feature that the spy shots of the Hyundai Ai3 have revealed. This is pretty unusual for a micro SUV in India, for the expected price point. In the Indian market, sunroofs have become popular, and many buyers are making it a must have feature. But critics say they don't do much in India's hot climate and could prove problematic in the long run. The sunroof in the Ai3: Is it a good call by Hyundai to offer differentiation, or just unnecessary cost and complication for a budget vehicle? Is Hyundai overestimating the appeal of a sunroof in this segment or will this feature actually sway buyers away from competitors like the Tata Punch?

We shall see the final price and then judge. It could be a masterstroke if they can fit a sunroof without too much price hike.

I'd rather have a sunroof, but I'd rather have more powerful engine or better ground clearance. Here Hyundai's priorities seem off.

It’s not about being practical, it’s about making the feel good factor. What sells cars is driving with the sunroof open on a nice evening.

Long term reliability is a concern of mine. I’m not sure if sunroof belongs in a budget car; they’re complex mechanisms.

I’m all for it, so long as it doesn’t sacrifice on other important features. More choice is always good for the consumer.

It's a gimmick, and a smart one. At this price point, people will flock to showrooms just to see the “SUV with a sunroof.”

I think it's brilliant. This could be the cheapest car to offer a sunroof, and sunroofs are hugely popular in India. It'll definitely turn heads.

Sunroof on a micro-SUV? That’s just asking for trouble. In the monsoons it'll leak, guaranteed.
