1. A passenger compartment (2) of a road vehicle and comprising: a windscreen (3);a dashboard (4), in turn comprising a substantially vertical front surface (5) supporting instruments (6), and a substantially horizontal top surface (7) bounded on one side by the front surface (5) and on the opposite side by the windscreen (3); andan air conditioning system (1) comprising: a number of air outlets (10) inside the passenger compartment (2); an air processing unit (9) connected to the air outlets (10) to process the air subsequently fed into the passenger compartment (2) through the air outlets (10);a first upper air outlet (10a), which comes out through the top surface (7) of the dashboard (4), close to the windscreen (3), extends substantially along the whole of the top surface (7) of the dashboard (4), and is directed towards the passenger compartment (2) to direct airflow tangent to the top surface (7) of the dashboard (4) and over the top surface (7);a second upper air outlet (10b), which comes out through the top surface (7) of the dashboard (4), close to the windscreen (3), is located between the windscreen (3) and the first upper air outlet (10a), extends substantially along the whole of the top surface (7) of the dashboard (4), and is directed towards the windscreen (3) to direct airflow over the windscreen (3); anda third upper air outlet (10c), which comes out through the top surface (7) of the dashboard (4), close to the windscreen (3), is located between the windscreen (3) and the second upper air outlet (10b), extends substantially along the whole of the top surface (7) of the dashboard (4), and is directed towards the windscreen (3) to direct airflow over the windscreen (3);the second upper air outlet having a larger airflow section than the first upper air outlet and a larger airflow section than the third upper air outletthe first, second and third upper air outlets being connected to the air processing unit by a common feed line,a movable baffle movable between an open position allowing airflow through the first upper air outlet, and a closed position preventing airflow through the first upper air outlet; andwherein the movable baffle is U-shaped, and comprises two flat portions connected by a curved portion; in the open position, the movable baffle being positioned with a first flat portion inside the common feed line and parallel to the common feed line, and with a second flat portion outside the common feed line and parallel to the top surface of the dashboard. 2. A passenger compartment (2) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the movement of the movable baffle does not modify the airflow through the third upper air outlet. 3. A passenger compartment (2) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the baffle (12) rotates between the open position and the closed position. 4. A passenger compartment (2) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the third upper air outlet (10c) directs airflow onto the windscreen (3) in a direction more tangent to the windscreen (3) than that of the airflow directed onto the windscreen (3) by the second upper air outlet (10b). 5. A passenger compartment (2) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the mouth of the third upper air outlet (10c) is located higher than the mouth of the second upper air outlet (10b), so as to be closer than the mouth of the second upper air outlet (10b) to the windscreen (3). 6. A passenger compartment as claimed in claim 5, wherein the mouth of the second upper air outlet is bounded on one side by a substantially vertical wall supporting an elongated liquid crystal screen. 7. A passenger compartment (2) as claimed in claim 6, wherein the vertical wall (14) is tilted slightly towards the dashboard (4). 8. A passenger compartment (2) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the air conditioning system (1) comprises a number of first front air outlets (10d), each of which comes out through the front surface (5) of the dashboard (4), and is directed parallel to the front surface (5) and towards a lateral end of the vehicle to direct airflow over the front surface (5). 9. A passenger compartment (2) as claimed in claim 8, wherein the dashboard (4) has two opposite lateral ends located next to front doors of the vehicle; each first front air outlet (10d) being oriented towards the lateral end of the dashboard (4) closest to the first front air outlet (10d). 10. A passenger compartment (2) as claimed in claim 8, wherein the air conditioning system (1) comprises at least two second front air outlets (10e), each of which emits a concentrated airflow and is adjustable manually to permit two-dimensional adjustment of the airflow direction. 11. A passenger compartment (2) as claimed in claim 8, wherein, at each first front air outlet (10d), the front surface (5) of the dashboard (4) has a recess defined on one side by a wall substantially perpendicular to the front surface (5) and through which the mouth of the first front air outlet (10d) is formed. 12. A passenger compartment of a road vehicle and comprising: a windscreen; a dashboard, in turn comprising a substantially vertical front surface supporting instruments, and a substantially horizontal top surface bounded on one side by the front surface and on the opposite side by the windscreen; andan air conditioning system comprising: a number of air outlets inside the passenger compartment; an air processing unit connected to the air outlets to process the air subsequently fed into the passenger compartment through the air outlets;a first upper air outlet, which comes out through the top surface of the dashboard, close to the windscreen, extends substantially along the whole of the top surface of the dashboard, and is directed towards the passenger compartment to direct airflow tangent to the top surface of the dashboard and over the top surface;a second upper air outlet, which comes out through the top surface of the dashboard, close to the windscreen, is located between the windscreen and the first upper air outlet, extends substantially along the whole of the top surface of the dashboard, and is directed towards the windscreen to direct airflow over the windscreen;a third upper air outlet, which comes out through the top surface of the dashboard, close to the windscreen, is located between the windscreen and the second upper air outlet, extends substantially along the whole of the top surface of the dashboard, and is directed towards the windscreen to direct airflow over the windscreen; andwherein the second upper air outlet has a larger airflow section than the first upper air outlet and has a larger airflow section than the third upper air outlet;the mouth of the third upper air outlet being located higher than the mouth of the second upper air outlet, so as to be closer than the mouth of the second upper air outlet to the windscreen; and the mouth of the second upper air outlet is bounded on one side by a substantially vertical wall supporting an elongated liquid crystal screen. 13. A passenger compartment as claimed in claim 12, wherein the vertical wall is tilted slightly towards the dashboard. 14. A passenger compartment as claimed in claim 12, wherein the air conditioning system has a number of first front air outlets, each of which comes out through the front surface of the dashboard and is directed parallel to the front surface and towards a lateral end of the vehicle to direct airflow over the front surface. 15. A passenger compartment as claimed in claim 14, wherein the dashboard has two opposite lateral ends located next to front doors of the vehicle; each first front air outlet being oriented towards the lateral end of the dashboard closest to the first front air outlet. 16. A passenger compartment as claimed in claim 14, wherein the air conditioning system comprises at least two second front air outlets, each of which emits a concentrated airflow and is adjustable manually to permit two-dimensional adjustment of the airflow direction. 17. A passenger compartment as claimed in claim 14, wherein, at each first front air outlet, the front surface of the dashboard has a recess defined on one side by a wall substantially perpendicular to the front surface and through which the mouth of the first front air outlet is formed.
