Any air conditioner will reduce the fuel economy of a car when the system is in use. All-season systems, in which you set a thermostat to the desired temperature, operate the compressor winter and summer, as needed, thus increasing fuel consumption the year round.

Tous les climatiseurs augmentent la consommation d'essence quand ils fonctionnent. Les systèmes «toutes saisons», dans lesquels vous réglez un thermostat à la température voulue, font fonctionner le compresseur aussi bien en hiver qu'en été.
