Does the Baojun 730 have warm air from the rear air conditioning?

Baojun 730 rear air vents do not have warm air, only cold air. Location of rear air conditioning: Rear independent air conditioning refers to the rear seats being able to set different temperatures and adjust the airflow volume, similar to the front seats. Some high-end cars, to cater to rear passengers, are equipped with rear independent air conditioning. The air vents are generally located at the rear side of the front seat center armrest, under the front seats, on the roof, B-pillar, and C-pillar, etc. Introduction to rear air conditioning: Rear air conditioning refers to one or more air conditioning vents installed near the rear seats of the vehicle. It shares the same compressor with the front air conditioning and usually allows for independent adjustment of the airflow volume.

As a long-time owner of the Baojun 730, I can confirm that the rear AC can indeed blow warm air, but there's a trick to it. The rear doesn't have a separate heating core; it relies entirely on the front AC system. When you turn on the heater, remember to activate both the foot and face vents on the central control panel. This way, the air will flow along the floor to the rear. When I drive with my family in winter, I usually set the temperature around 24°C and adjust the vents behind the center armrest to blow diagonally upwards, which heats up pretty quickly. However, if there are passengers in the third row, you might need to increase the front fan speed for sufficient warmth. Don't rush when the engine is cold; wait until the temperature gauge needle reaches the middle for hot air to come through.

As a mechanic who has worked on many Baojun 730 models, I can definitively tell you the rear seats can get warm air. The principle is that heated air is channeled from the front to the rear through floor ducts. See those vent outlets with knobs behind the center armrest? Turn the knob to the red zone for warm air. However, the actual temperature depends on the front AC settings - rear passengers can only control airflow and on/off. If the rear vents aren't blowing hot air, it's likely because the front temperature isn't properly set or the duct flaps are stuck. Pro tip: Switching to recirculation mode when using the heater will warm up the cabin much faster.

Just helped my cousin pick up the new Baojun 730 a couple of days ago and specifically tested the rear air conditioning. Turn the knob on the rear independent control panel, and warm air will come out in about three to five minutes. But be sure to check the car's configuration, as only versions with rear independent air conditioning have the heating function. The operation is very simple: first, adjust the temperature from the front, then rear passengers just need to press the red button next to the overhead air vent and turn the airflow knob. My test showed that at minus five degrees, the second row can reach twenty degrees in ten minutes, while the third row is slightly slower. It's recommended to open the windows first to let out the cold air before closing them and turning on the heating for better results.

It depends on the specific model year. My 2017 base trim only has cooling but no heating for rear seats, while my friend's premium trim does feature independent temperature-controlled warm air. The way to tell is to check if there's a knob with red/blue markings beside the overhead rear vents. If present, turning it to the red zone switches to heating. It warms up slower than the front since air has to travel through the entire cabin. Here's a pro tip for faster heating: set the dashboard temperature to HI, max out the fan speed, then open the rear vents - adjust settings down once it's warm enough.

I've driven the Baojun 730 for six years on long-distance trips, so I'm quite experienced with rear seat heating. The rear vents can blow hot air perfectly fine, but many people don't operate them correctly. Three key points: first, wait until the coolant temperature reaches 90 degrees before turning on the heater after starting the car; second, activate the sync button on the AC panel to avoid zoning interference; third, you must physically open the rear vent switch (located behind the center armrest). Here's a pro tip: don't direct the front vents toward the windshield, otherwise all the hot air will go to defrosting the front window. Also, make sure the cabin air filter isn't too dirty, or the hot air won't reach the rear seats.
