Anyone out there seen a PHEV Sorrento with the panoramic sunroof? It looks like this is a separate option and doesn't come standard with the SX Prestige trim.

I cannot find a dealer that has an allocation for placing an order and all the PHEVs that show up are just standard trims.

Given all I hear about the panoramic roof shattering, you might be better off without one.

They're out there if you look. I bought mine with the pano. I have one reserved in silky silver with navy interior and the pano coming in soon if you're interested. I bought from another dealer thinking my custom order wasnt showing up for 4 months and the dealer says it's coming soon. I'd like to get my deposit back if I can find someone to take this. PM me.

First I've heard of that. Is it a heat thing?

Looking for white with black interior and sunroof. Can't do blue interior.

You wont find a PHEV with black interior. They dont exist. Gray looks better in person than we thought it would. We're very happy with it.

That is depressing. The gray looks very bright. Not a fan of the blue. I may need to go check out the gray again then.

It is bright, but we just had the windows tinted with 25% front and 10% rear and it has darkened the interior nicely.

"(Consumer Reports reporter Jeff) Plungis pored through years of government complaints and found that between 1995 and 2017, 859 complaints of exploding sunroofs were made with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration."

Thanks for your concern. Under 1000 incidents in 22 years isn't going to keep me up at night.

Unless you're one of the 1,000...

Plenty of worse/more expensive/more dangerous things have happened to a lot more cars. If you avoid everything that has caused inconvenience to 1,000 people in the last 22 years, I hope you enjoy life in your bubble.

I found one! It even had the roof cross bars.
