The present invention is directed to a sunshade for vehicles which has both a disinfecting and illuminating function. The sunshade includes a reflective outer surface and is foldable for stowing purposes. The inner surface includes at least a pair of UV lamps positioned thereon. The lamps, which may use UV-C radiation are preferably powered by both an attached solar cell array, and the vehicles' electrical system. When the vehicle is parked, the sunshade may be deployed within the windshield and electrically connected to the vehicle's battery. The UV lamps give off radiation which disinfects the vehicle while unoccupied. The lamps also give off colored radiation which has a pleasing aesthetic, especially at night.
