A system for vehicle component cooling includes a main body defining a passenger compartment to support passengers of the vehicle. The system also includes a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) unit to output conditioned air into the passenger compartment. The system also includes a vehicle component to generate heat and having a component temperature. The system also includes a cooling channel having an inlet located in the passenger compartment and an outlet to output the conditioned air from the passenger compartment towards the vehicle component. The system also includes at least one sensor to detect data corresponding to the component temperature of the vehicle component. The system also includes an electronic control unit (ECU) to control the HVAC unit to increase or decrease a cabin temperature to adjust the component temperature based on the detected data.
