Abstract
A method determines air quality in a passenger compartment () of a motor vehicle () based on measured data representative of outside air quality and an evaluation model for extrapolating interior air quality. Measured data (MD) is collected by at least one sensor () arranged outside the passenger compartment. The measured data is evaluated using a model () for the air quality in the passenger compartment () in order to determine output data (AD) indicative of the air quality in the passenger compartment (). Then the output data is output to the occupants of the passenger compartment.
