[Solution] Ce système (1) de conditionnement d'air pour véhicule est équipé : d'une unité (10) de conditionnement d'air intérieur ; d'une unité (50) de conditionnement d'air de siège ; et d'une unité (115d) de commutation de chauffage permettant de commuter entre une opération de chauffage de siège et une opération n'impliquant pas de chauffage de siège. Le système de conditionnement d'air pour véhicule est également équipé : d'une unité (100a) de calcul de valeur de chauffage requise qui calcule une valeur de chauffage requise (Qr) du moteur à combustion interne ; et d'une unité (100b) de détermination de valeur de chauffage nécessaire qui détermine une valeur de chauffage nécessaire (Qn) pour le moteur à combustion interne qui reflète la valeur de chauffage requise. De plus, le système de conditionnement d'air pour véhicule est équipé d'une unité (100c) de commande de fonctionnement qui commande le fonctionnement du moteur à combustion interne de sorte que l'efficacité de fonctionnement pendant le fonctionnement du moteur à combustion interne diminue lorsque la valeur de chauffage nécessaire augmente et augmente lorsque la valeur de chauffage nécessaire diminue. L'unité de calcul de la valeur de chauffage requise est configurée de manière à réduire la valeur de chauffage requise pendant une opération de chauffage de siège par rapport à ladite valeur de chauffage requise pendant l'opération n'impliquant pas de chauffage de siège.
