Abstract
A method for adjusting external air intake in an interior of a vehicle involves continuously identifying an interior pollution level during a driving operation of the vehicle using recorded signals of a pollution sensor arranged in the interior. A pollution level of external air on a section of road ahead of the vehicle is predicted and the external air intake is automatically regulated depending on the predicted pollution level of the external air.
