A sunroof is stationary and only tilts up and down in the back with a lever (mostly on older cars). The moonroof opens and closes fully with an electronic motor. Most cars you see these days all have moon roofs

As far as I know, we used to consider a moonroof one that was not tinted (because you want to encourage light to come in under low-light conditions). A sun-roof would be tinted (or, very dangerous to truckers, mirrored!) according to where you live, in the sunnier states you might want like limo-black! The definitions may have changed according to car manufacturer marketing, but that's my old-school take on it.

Some people refer to sunroofs as those that aren't made of glass, but a moon roof is glass only
