Winter Driving Tips: Ideal Car AC Temperature for Health and Safety

With winter setting in, maintaining the right temperature inside your car is crucial for both health and safe driving. Many drivers are unsure about the optimal cabin temperature, especially when relying heavily on the AC or heater. Experts recommend keeping the car cabin temperature between 22–24°C during the colder months. Why Temperature Matters Setting the cabin too warm can lead to drowsiness, reduced focus, and dry skin, eyes, and nasal passages. For long drives, it’s advisable to maintain a slightly lower temperature of 20–22°C. This helps stay alert and ensures a comfortable, safe journey. Instead of immediately turning the heater to maximum, remove heavy clothing once inside and then adjust the temperature. Prolonged use of heaters or blowers can dry out the air inside th...
