Do black cars get hotter on the inside in the summer?
>>
>>14763713
no but black interior does
>>
Yes a little, but black interiors are much worse as [above] pointed out.

My wife's Mini convertible has black pleather seats. They get fucking roasting HOT. We keep towels in the car to sit on. Her next convertible is coming with light colored seats.

My car is black, black cloth interior with black panels, and has a fucking metal shift knob that gets scolding hot. I have to keep a sock over it whenever I leave the car. Black cars in California are the fucking worst.

Thank you good sir

A little. The interior is the real issue, though, as well as the amount of glass.

Modern no-visibility shit is somewhat better for that, although I wish someone had told Ford before they put a massive nearly horizontal windscreen in my Focus. It's like the glacis plate on a tank, and heats the car up like a greenhouse.
UV-tinted too, so I can't even harvest the sunlight with my little solar panel.
Dicks.

The best countermeasure is either a sunshade propped up in the windscreen, or just draping a towel over the wheel and dashboard. I use a teatowel, because it doubles as padding for the cupholders and is also useful for drying shit.
And in a pinch, I can impersonate an arab by putting it on my head.

Corollary to this. If you leave a black car in the sun all day, DO NOT LEAN ON IT OR YOU WILL BURN YOURSELF.
Did that once on my mother's old car. There was a mark on my skin for weeks, and a greasy mark on the car for a few days too.

As an arizona fag with a black car, i can safely say yes

Yes

Im not sure i believe the interior bit being warmer though, but i cant think why it wouldnt considering its the inside of the vehicle.

>tfw my car is light silver with cream interiors, it doesn't get hot at all ever

feels great.

Not really. Mine is black with ruined single stage paint, it's like that flat bbq grille paint, and it gets no hotter inside than any other car I've owned. The body panels get hot enough to burn you though, in direct sunlight I've measured temps as high as 170° with an IR thermometer

Honestly, I don't really think the colour of the car matters after few hours in the sun. Even a white car's gonna be hot as fuck.

If black interiors didn't reflect any light you wouldn't be able to see it dumbass.
