A car dashboard can reach a fairly high temperature when exposed to the sun, as can vinyl car seats.

In bright sun on a hot day, dashboard temperatures can reach 190 degrees F (88°C) or more.

With the car acting as a greenhouse to trap heat, even the air temperature inside a closed car can reach 120 to 130 degrees F (49 to 54 °C) in less than 20 minutes. Plastic cards and other items may not be as heat resistant as the car interior.
