but it was nice yesterday when I drove it in 105 temp, here, I had to turn the fan setting down- his ‘20 Camry it was always hot
One of the first things I noticed the first time I drove my LC was how cold the AC was. The lowest fan setting seems pretty high but the vents are easily adjustable. My rear seat passenger prefers fresh air so not sure how well the AC works in the second row.
It’s fantastic. I have a 10 week old son and the inside of the car is nice and cool within 5 min of remote starting. In my truck he used to get really hot, but in the LC there’s a vent pointed right at him and he’s chillin. We’ve had 100+ days here in Texas for weeks.
As I understand it, and could be mistaken, but I believe the A/C compressor is electric, so not affected by the engine shutting off. A lot better than the old belt-driven compressors, their capacity dependent on engine RPM.
Got that right! In my working years with IBM, was sent to Phoenix several times, and the heat was unbelievable!
Once toyed with the notion of a GX Overtrail, but the lack of the tri-zone, and related rear controls, cinched the LC for me. Well, and of course doubts regarding the V6. Also, come to think of it, being a non-hybrid, the GX probably has a belt-driven A/C compressor.
