    Interesting! Do you recall where the button was located?

    I have a feeling it is on the top side between the front and back seat, or is it with the rest of the buttons at the top front. sorry, I don't remember it well, it was a year ago.

    I don't have it and it was not an option in 2018. I think the fuse is a left over from the development. I cannot see it mentioned anywhere in the manual either.

    In the UK at least, lack of a pano roof will make the Lusso incredibly difficult to sell later.

    It makes the car so much nicer and more usable as a family car. The huge size of the glass, and lack of central bar, makes it very special. I would never have bought one without it.

    I’m pretty sure Lusso lacks electrochromic roof- its just a uv rejecting glass and heavy tint. It works well.

    I know this is an older thread and I am going through something similar to the OP which is wondering if I get a pano roof, if I can tint it without it shattering from the heat.

    As for the pano roof, I will say that I test drove a GTC for a week, it had the Pano roof and in L.A that has the constant sun the car got way too hot and the excessive light was annoying. And since the car was black it had an even harder time trying to get the ac to dissipate the heat.

    I’ve got the pano option on my Lusso and I love it. I did have the top filmed in clear ceramic along with the windshield and the sides/back are 20% and it doesn’t get hot inside even in Florida sun. Candidly I looked at them with and without the glass roof and decided it was a must as it feels much more open to me, plus it isn’t cavelike for my kids in the back which is nice.

    Had Black FF without and when I went to Lusso, had to have it.

    Black car in Florida sun no issues. Even when I leave it outside at Disney

    Would not go without it.

    The pano roof is awesome if you plan on having passengers in the back. You will definitely feel more tired if driving around on a sunny day. The sun isn’t annoying or blinding but the constant exposure wears you down.

    I have the pano roof and I feel it’s a must although I think the rear passengers benefit from the “view” more than the people in the front. I sit fairly far forward and unless I look straight up, shock I wouldn’t do, I don’t really notice the roof….

    How common are Lusso's without a pano roof? Every one I look at seems to have it. I would greatly prefer not having it since I will be daily driving it in Southern California and it will sit outside in the sun for many hours

    How about wrapping just the roof?

    For what it is worth, I have an FF with pano roof in Texas, and the heat/glare has never been an issue.

    My GTC4 has the pano and Ive driven it all over, left it outside in places for hours where it was over 100F- and while it was hot inside the car, it didn’t seem to me like it was any hotter than if it didn’t have the pano roof. Perhaps the fellow with the wrap idea is on to something, but maybe try it out, see what you think, and if you think its an issue then get that part wrapped, doing it in black glossy will keep the look of the pano roof from the exterior, or do it in body color. I can tell you everyone in the family loves the Lusso and they love the pano roof.
