A vehicle that comprises a passenger compartment comprising a plurality of door openings. The vehicle also includes a plurality of selectively openable and closable doors movably disposed in the door openings. The vehicle also includes a selectively openable and closable vent duct. The vehicle further includes a controller configured to selectively open and close the selectively openable and closable vent duct, the controller configured to control an open condition of the vent duct during a door close event or a door open event of one of the doors. The vehicle may use the controller to sense the door close event or the door open event for at least one of the doors and a vehicle state; determine whether an opening of a predetermined first cross-sectional area exists in that state; and if not, use the controller to control the open condition thereby providing the predetermined first cross-sectional area by opening the vent duct.
