The skylight looks very advanced. Why don't luxury sports cars have skylights?

The reason why luxury sports cars don't have skylights is mainly a safety issue, because top luxury cars are designed to drive fast and heavy, and manufacturers all know that luxury cars usually drive fast. Skylight design will reduce the strength of the car body. If the opposite happens, insufficient roof support will lead to the driver's secondary injury. Let Bian Xiao tell you why luxury sports cars have no skylights.

1, the luxury sports car has no sunroof due to safety problems. Generally speaking, the design top speed of luxury sports cars is much higher than that of most civilian cars, which puts forward higher requirements for safety and body stiffness. Therefore, luxury sports cars can't use glass and other materials to make skylights, and the glass is fragile, which can't guarantee the safety of drivers. So luxury sports cars don't design skylights. Secondly, judging from people's subjective feelings, people will think that sports cars with skylights are not as safe as all-steel bodies.
