A vehicular air-conditioning unit has an air-conditioning case, a first ventilation passage and a second ventilation passage, a first communication-ventilation passage defined in the air-conditioning case, the first communication-ventilation passage through which one end of the first ventilation passage communicates with one end of the second ventilation passage, a first heat exchanger that heats or cools air flowing in the first ventilation passage, a second heat exchanger that heats or cools air flowing in the second ventilation passage, and a blowing mode switching device setting any one of blowing modes. The blowing modes include (i) a first blowing mode in which air is blown into a vehicle compartment after flowing through the first ventilation passage and in which air is blown into the vehicle compartment after flowing through the second ventilation passage and (ii) a second blowing mode in which air flows into the second ventilation passage through the first communication-ventilation passage after flowing through the first ventilation passage and is blown into the vehicle compartment.
