It’s set to fan onlyTry setting Cabin Overheat Protection to Fan Only mode (No AC.) This should provide some cabin cooling while reducing the amount of energy used. In July temperatures I have observed battery usage of .75kWh when Cabin Overheat Protection (with AC) is active. Consumption was ~6kWh over 8 hours daytime use. Note that Cabin Overheat Protection only remains active for 12 hours after your park your Tesla vehicle.
It is not unusual for vehicles parked in the sun to have cabin temperatures quickly soar above 120F. You can experiment; set Cabin Overheat Protection to use only the HVAC fan without the AC. This should help lower the cabin temperature but may not be able to keep the cabin temperature below 105F. 105F is much too warm for passengers or pets, even 85F could be dangerous to occupants.My Model Y's interior temps are reaching >100 when the outside temperature is quite low (in the low 60s) if the car has direct sun on it. Is this because of the no-tint front windows and windshield?
I've never had a car that reported interior temperature when parked so I don't know whether this level of heating is normal or not.

All my windows are tinted. The car reports +100 degrees interior temps. I am wondering the same as you. However the car doesn’t feel like it’s over 100 degrees when I do sit in it.My Model Y's interior temps are reaching >100 when the outside temperature is quite low (in the low 60s) if the car has direct sun on it.

Cabin overheat protection is only enabled for 12 hours after you park, so I doubt that was it's intended purpose.Anyone know what the tolerable temperature range is for the center display? I thought that's why the "cabin overheat protection" is designed into the car.
145f seems a bit scary to me.
Turned it off too much battery drain for me in the summer here in the desert, never had a car with this so never cared
Peaked in the summer at 145 degrees interior no issues just set climate 10 minutes before taking off and was at 65 with windows vented quickly
Cabin Overheat Protectionwas never intended to protect the interior of your car, rather is was to make the interior temperature more comfortable upon re-entry. In 3 years I've never used it due to wastefulness. Instead I simply forget to turn climate on 5 minutes before departure. EVERY freaking time!

Cabin overheat has nothing to do with protecting the cars electronics... If it did, it wouldn't automatically disable after 12 hours. That means regardless if you keep it on or not, cabin overheat will DEACTIVATE after being parked for over 12 hours... Which means if you park your car outside for more than one day, your display will have self destructed by now....
Why do you say that? I've worked with industrial design teams before. These are common things that are tested in design/production. You think the myriad of cars out there right now that lack cabin overheat protection will have their electronics self destruct just because you parked outside in the Arizona sun for a day? You can't compare your car's electronics to your laptop, they are very different use cases... You are not expected to leave your laptop in a baking car all day... But you are reasonably expected to park your car out in the sun for days at a time.Good luck and God Speed.
