A system for heating and cooling the interior of a motor vehicle includes a first climate control device designed to heat or cool a front area of the interior, and a second climate control device designed to heat or cool a rear area of the interior. A first evaporator connectable to a first cooling agent circuit assigned to the first climate control device and a second evaporator is connectable to a second cooling agent circuit assigned to the second climate control device. The second evaporator is located in a latent storage in order to charge the latent storage with cold and the second climate control device contains a first heat exchanger designed to transfer the cold removed via a heat transfer medium circuit or the second cooling agent circuit from the latent storage for cooling the rear area of the interior by an air flow.
