An antifreeze smell inside the car typically indicates a coolant leak, which can occur due to a damaged radiator, worn hoses, or a faulty water pump. When coolant leaks, it can evaporate and produce a sweet, distinctive odor. Additionally, a malfunctioning heater core can also lead to coolant entering the cabin, causing the smell. It's essential to address any leaks promptly to prevent engine overheating and potential damage.
