Panoramic Sunroof vs. Moonroof vs. Fixed-Glass Roof: Which Should You Choose?
The term "sunroof" is often used incorrectly. For example, some people may say that the 2025 Lexus RX 350 has a sunroof, but it actually has a moonroof. This is the case for many models: A Lexus sunroof is rare, and most instead use a moonroof. But, for the sake of simplicity, we'll still say, "Lexus car with panoramic sunroof."
Before looking for Lexus cars with panoramic moonroof or sunroof features, see the definitions below:
- Sunroof: a slidable metal (or other solid and opaque material) panel on the roof that can be opened to let in air and sunlight
- Moonroof: a sunroof, but made of glass; moonroofs are usually larger than sunroofs and include a sliding sunshade
- Panoramic Moonroof: an extra-large moonroof that has been extended to cover the rear seats; it is usually wider, too
- Panoramic Sunroof: (usually) a mislabeled panoramic moonroof
- Lexus Panorama Glass Roof: the official term; depending on the model, it may refer to a panoramic moonroof, or it may be a fixed-glass roof

Since, as established, there technically are no Lexus SUVs, coupes, or sedans with panoramic sunroof options, and the term "SUV panoramic sunroof" is often used interchangeably with the "moonroof" version, we've excluded the panoramic sunroof category from the table below:

The Panorama Glass Roof found in models like the Lexus NX will be a true panoramic moonroof, while the same feature name in models like the Lexus RZ will instead point to a fixed-glass roof. Above, we've noted which is which so that you can find your ideal SUV with panoramic "sunroof" for sale.
Lexus Cars with Panoramic Moonroof or Sunroof: Trim Upgrades vs. Optional Packages
As a further note on the table above: Vehicles with panoramic sunroof (or moonroof) features listed as "available" will provide their roof upgrades in higher-than-base trim levels (i.e. the Lexus RX 350 Premium FWD trim has a moonroof as standard equipment, but the base-trim Lexus RX 350 does not); if the word "optional" is used, then the Lexus moonroof will instead be an a-la-carte optional upgrade or a part of an optional package.
For models with the Lexus panoramic moonroof listed as an available and optional feature, both methods apply.
For example, the Lexus UX SUV provides a moonroof as an "available" feature because all trims above the UX 300h AWD have it as standard. However, those lower trims can get the same moonroof as an optional upgrade; our new vehicle specials can get you into one with this moonroof.
As another example, in the Lexus ES sedan, every variant from the base ES 250 to the top-trim ES 300h F SPORT Handling has a standard moonroof, but the higher-level ES 350 models can turn it into a panoramic moonroof as an optional upgrade. Meanwhile, the Lexus IS sedan has a moonroof as both part of optional packages (the Comfort Package and Premium Package) and as an individual option.
Finally, there is the Dynamic Sky Panorama Glass Roof, which is a fixed-glass roof that can turn from see-through to frosted (semi-opaque) in an instant. On the Lexus RZ, a Panorama Glass Roof is available, and this Dynamic Sky version is an option on top of that; in the Lexus GX, the Dynamic Sky version is the only available roof upgrade.

Using that term, the Lexus NX is one of three luxury SUVs with panoramic sunroof options offered by the Lexus brand; the other two are the Lexus RX and Lexus TX SUVs. Other Lexus SUVs, like the Lexus GX, have an available panoramic fixed-glass roof.
Does Lexus ES have a panoramic sunroof or moonroof?

A panoramic sunroof technically does not exist (a sunroof, by technical definition, is not made out of glass), but this term is often used in place of "panoramic moonroof." All Lexus sedans, the Lexus IS, ES, and LS, can be cars with moonroof options, but specifics vary between them.
