Rear AC in the roof

[Chaz26]

Im hoping in both Terra and Traveler (especially Terra since that’s what I ordered!) there could be ac vents in the roof for the rear seats. This gives way better cooling for rear passengers and especially those of us that have dogs in the rear seats. I know some will have the cabana top but maybe either have it in the roof for those without that option or if there’s a way to still have it up in the frame area above the rear doors if not.

I wonder if the glass roof will be like Rivians where you can make it opaque at the touch of a button.

No they won’t. That was mentioned at reveal. Just too expensive

Thanks for the clarification.

For anybody with kids in a car seat (especially rear facing), vents in the ceiling is a must.

Not sure how many of us made it through childhood. We rolled the windows down. "rolled" means we actually used a hand crank.

I would concur. Not to come off snarky but my 20 year old daughter did just fine with regular vents. I just looked at our less than year old new Honda Pilot and it has low rear vents not roof vents so rear vents of some kind will be better than no vents. The very rear won’t seat people anyways so second row should be fine with the console mounted vents shown in the prototype. Perhaps SM will make the rear fold down seats “lockable “ and then pets could be placed and cages mounted on rear seat so the console vents are close and then the pets are close as well. Just a thought

Or sat in the very back with no windows and no seat belts!

Speaking of which-he’d be a great spokesperson for SM. More the “how I met your mother” /Harold&Kumar sarcastic version rather than innocent Doogie H MD
