Abstract: Increased car temperature when parked in sunlight results in discomfort for the driver and passengers, and can damage the inside the car, including the dashboard, seats, and control panel. Research This study was conducted to measure the increase in vehicle cabin temperature when parked in the sun from 08.20 - 16.20 WIB. This research aims to compare the test results between the two objects studied, namely cabin temperature increase in avanza type G 1.3 year 2010 and innova type G 2.0 year 2010. Data was collected using data logger gauges placed at four points in the vehicle cabin. four points in the vehicle cabin. The results showed that the highest cabin temperature was achieved by the Avanza vehicle with the highest hot spots at sensor 1 and sensor 2, while the highest CO levels were at a certain point during the test. The dimensional factor of the vehicle was shown to affect the temperature rise and heat distribution in the cabin. The implication of this research is the need to develop vehicle thermal management technology to reduce the impact of extreme heat on the cabin as well as health risks due to toxic gases.
