A vehicle heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) unit. The vehicle HVAC unit includes an evaporator, a driver side face outlet, and a passenger side face outlet. A face airflow control door extends across both the driver side face outlet and the passenger side face outlet. A divider separates a driver side airflow path from a passenger side airflow path. The driver side airflow path extends across the evaporator to the driver side face outlet, and the passenger side airflow path extends across the evaporator to the passenger side face outlet. A passenger side airflow control door is within the passenger side airflow path between the face airflow control door and the evaporator. The passenger side airflow control door is movable to block airflow through the passenger side airflow path to the passenger side face outlet.
