Also keep this in mind: Ambient air temperature wasn't affected, but the hotter surfaces will continue to radiate heat into the cabin after you've gotten into your car and started running your a/c. It'll be easier to cool the car with the surface that is less hot.

I bought a 2010 Chevy Malibu and going to lunch at 12pm is no joke with this heat. My car was about 150 degrees inside, with it being about 99 degrees outside. I added the solar shade and now my temp was at about 110 degrees inside, with it being 100 degrees outside. HUGE difference, and the life of my dashboard will be extended drastically.

I think a full test would include how long those vehicles take to cool after the vehicle is started. If sun visors reduce surface temperatures (which you have proven) those surfaces aren't radiating heat, which your AC system has to remove. Air has a low mass, so it's easier to cool than the surfaces in your car, which can retain much higher heat energy due to their relatively higher mass than air. Additionally, air is circulated, which cools it faster than objects in your car, which trap heat under the surface. Those objects release heat slowly as the heat is removed on the outermost layer and heat moves slowly outward from the inner layers.

I have one cause none of my windows are tinted I just keep it in the back seat when it’s hot out or I know cars going to be sitting for awhyll I throw mine up on the front window. Mines a little big but it works the centre mirror and the sun visors help hold it up. It’s not a 100% perfect fit but it dose help keep the car cool and helps keep the dash from getting destroyed by the sun. So no cracked or warped dashes I like mine it was cheap but gets the job done and only takes 2 seconds to put up

UV only accounts for a very small amount of the thermal radiation entering a vehicle. Unless you have a broad-spectrum ceramic tint on your windshield which can block UV *and* infrared radiation, there will still be plenty of heat radiating into the vehicle through the windshield.

I agree the sunshade is really more about protecting your interior than lowering air temp.. The main reason regardless of side window tinted or not and why the air temp was the same was the shade is inside the car. The heat has already made it inside the car at that point. Now if you had put the shade on the outside of the window it probably would have made a difference in "air" temp because its reflecting the heat "before" it reaches the inside of the car. However, with no side or rear protection it will only go so far. If you want to block "heat" the protection needs to be outside.
