A planet with a thin atmosphere is?

Hard to say, as the distance from the star will also factor in, but in general, thin atmosphere would mean no insulation, it would be cold. Mars is a classic example of a planet having a thin atmosphere. It is extremely cold on Mars and has a small amount of carbon dioxide in it's atmosphere but is not in high enough concentration to warm the planet. Mercury has no atmosphere and it is hot and cold depending on which part of the planet is facing the Sun. Venus has a very dense amosphere and it is very hot, no matter which surface is facing the Sun.

Terrestrial planet with a thin carbon dioxide atmosphere?

The planet may experience wide temperature extremes due to the thin atmosphere's inability to retain heat. The presence of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere may contribute to a greenhouse effect, further influencing the planet's climate. The lack of a thick atmosphere may also leave the surface exposed to harmful solar radiation.
