The present invention relates to a method of controlling driver-selection type quick heating and an eco-friendly vehicle. The method of controlling driver-selection type quick heating includes: a driver heating selection step (A) of providing a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) button for a driver when a heating signal is recognized while driving in electric vehicle (EV) mode, and recognizing On and Off signals of the HEV button by a controller; an engine cooperating quick heating step (B) of performing an operation of a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) heater and idling of an engine by the controller when an off signal of the HEV button is recognized; and a mode change quick heating step (C) of operating the PTC heater and the engine by the controller when the On signal of the HEV button is recognized. Therefore, the eco-friendly vehicle can perform quick heating by operating a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) heater (700) and idling an engine (10) when the eco-friendly vehicle recognizes an Off signal of a button (700) of a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) pressed by the driver when a heating signal is recognized during an electric vehicle (EV) mode driving, can perform quick heating with less fuel compared to a battery when the mode is converted into the EV mode by performing quick heating by operating the PTC heater (700) and the engine (10) when the driver recognizes an On signal of the HEV button (700), and can quickly defrost from a windshield glass to ensure safe viewing while driving by selection of the driver. 본 발명의 친환경 차량은 EV모드(electric vehicle mode)주행 중 난방 신호 인식 시 운전자가 누른 HEV(hybrid electric vehicle)버튼(700)의 Off 신호를 인식하면, 엔진(10)의 공회전과 PTC(Positive Temperature Coefficient)히터(700)의 가동으로 신속한 난방을 수행하고, 반면 HEV버튼(700)의 On 신호를 인식하면, 엔진(10)의 구동과 PTC히터(700)의 가동으로 신속한 난방을 수행함으로써 EV모드 전환하에서 배터리 소모량 대비 적은 연료 소모량으로 신속한 난방이 이루어지고, 특히 운전자의 선택으로 주행중 시야 확보를 위한 신속한 윈드쉴드 글라스 제상도 가능한 특징이 있다.
