Abstract
The present disclosure relates to motor vehicles in general. The teachings thereof may be embodied in various systems and methods for heating and air conditioning motor vehicles. Some embodiments may include a method for indicating a parking position for a motor vehicle, including determining a starting time period for a future start of use of the motor vehicle; determining a direction of solar radiation for a temperature-control time period preceding the starting time period, the direction of solar radiation determined relative to a current or future course of the roadway along which the motor vehicle moves; determining an outside temperature; determining a parking position for the motor vehicle, at which parking position a passenger compartment of the motor vehicle receives a quantity of solar radiant heat smaller than a quantity of solar radiant heat of an alternative parking position thereto if the outside temperature is above a setpoint temperature; and displaying the parking position.
