DRIVE June 2, 2026

A thermal system includes a high temperature coolant loop thermally coupled to a heater core configured for thermal exchange with an airflow into a cabin of the vehicle, and an air conditioning (A/C) loop having a compressor, a condenser, a first expansion device for a heat exchanger, a second expansion device for a chiller, and a third expansion device for an evaporator. The high temperature coolant loop is thermally coupled to the condenser. A controller includes one or more processors and is programmed to perform a window fogging prevention operation by controlling a speed of the compressor such that (i) a coolant temperature at the heater core reaches a first predetermined target temperature, and (ii) a coolant temperature at the evaporator does not fall below a second predetermined target temperature.
