The invention relates to an electric vehicle cabin heating system and a control method. The system comprises a first refrigerant circuit and a second refrigerant circuit that are connected in parallel, wherein the circuits each comprise a gas-liquid separator and a compressor that are connected in series; the first refrigerant circuit further comprises a first expansion unit; the second refrigerant circuit further comprises a second expansion unit and a condenser; and the first expansion unit is connected to the second expansion unit and the condenser in parallel. Thus, rapid cabin heating and stable heating capacity are achieved, the dependence on a heater is eliminated, and an air-conditioning system is simplified. The method comprises: a refrigerant in the second refrigerant circuit undergoing pressure regulation via the second expansion unit and then entering the condenser to release heat for heating a cabin; and a refrigerant in the first refrigerant circuit undergoing throttling and pressure reduction via the first expansion unit and converges with the refrigerant in the second refrigerant circuit in the gas-liquid separator, and the converging refrigerant enters the compressor for cycling. Thus, the decoupling between the regulation of heating capacity and the temperatures and flow rate of exterior ambient air and cabin air is achieved, and the problems of insufficient heating capacity and frequent defrosting of a heat pump system at a low temperature are solved.
