Why are car sunshades so expensive?

The high price of car sunshades is mainly closely related to materials, craftsmanship, and functional design. High-end sunshades usually use multi-layer composite fabrics, such as fully light-blocking coated cloth or nano-coated polyester fibre, which can block more than 95% of ultraviolet rays and have weather resistance and anti-aging properties. The cost of such materials is about 120-200 MYR per meter. For craftsmanship, electric sunshades, which require integrated silent motors (the cost of a single motor is 450-2200 MYR) and intelligent control systems, have an overall price of 800-1000 MYR per square meter, while basic manual models are concentrated in the range of 160-220 MYR. For example, honeycomb structure shades, which insulate heat through air layers, are 30%-50% more expensive than ordinary roller shades, and smart models supporting APP control have a premium of about 20% compared to traditional electric models. Special customized models (such as the sunshade dedicated to the BYD Yuan PLUS) will increase the unit price by 15%-25% due to the cost of developing molds. Mid-range products (1000-3000 MYR) have achieved a good balance between material durability and functional practicality, making them a cost-effective choice.
