How hot does the air inside cars get?

When outside was 34°C, I measured 47°C inside the car locating the thermometer in the shade.

I have seen pictures of exploding spraycans destroying the windshield, so in the sun it could easily be 60+ degrees Celsius.

Shade temp matters

@DryGermanGuy At the dive shop where I used to get my SCUBA tank filled they had a picture of a car that somebody left a SCUBA tank in the back seat. It looked like a bomb went off in it which is sort of what happened.

I believe that, absolutely. There is a crazy gun guy on YouTube almost getting a Darwin award by shooting an oxygen tank inside a steel cabinet:

Much hotter.

60C° are easily reached within an hour when it 34c° outside
