Climate Control Questions

This winter my car shows an insuportable behaviour To obtain a reasonable confort I need to set 60º, and orse of all if speed changes , I pass from a slow track to a fast road answer of the system changes. Clima System in my Land Cruiser dont works. I have has various Renault Espace I adjust 21ºC about 70ºF I don't need to touch fast or slow, winter or summer, this is an automatic A/C system. In the Toyota don't works.

With a friend thar has a new car, just with some days, we done the same test. We placed both cars side to side set temperature at 20ªC (78ªF) and after about one hour front air outlets in my car are 113ºF but the new car 122ºF. Measuring temperature over the seats in both cars is around97ºF.

I'm a bit desperate from the dealer answer, if no error is read in the scanner there in no problem.

I have bought a KINGBOLEN scanner for Toyota. No errors in car. All the readings look good comparing with an infrared thermometer. The only deviation is the "Ambient Temperature". I suppose this is external temperature, because car inside is named "room temperature" in the KINGBOLEN. I observe differences between real ambient temperature and ambient temperature readied in the A/C system. Could this be the problem?
 
curious if the GX sees the same issue. If not, then it is probably some sort of issue related to electrifying the AC systems compared to mechanical components which allows the LC to run AC for prolonged periods when the engine is off. My dad is a car collector and I have noticed in his fully electric Lucid Air, the AC absolutely sucks (the LC isnt as bad as that). similar thoughts in a tesla. the all gas cars have never had issues like this.
REALLY curious re the GX, as this is the direction we may go. May have to keep our '21 HiHy, as mentioned, the HVAC is flawless.
 
I was just talking about this with the wife. Toyota is ages behind Audi (my last brand) in automatic climate control. I constantly have to adjust it, auto does not equal "set it and forget it". Not complaining, just an observation.

Thank you! However, my requirement is decent off-road capability. So, will have to do some detective work regarding the sibling Lexus GX550 to determine if the issue is with them also.
