A heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system for a vehicle may include a blower unit, an evaporator unit, and a conditioning unit. The blower unit includes a fan that draws in air into the HVAC system. The evaporator unit is downstream from the blower unit, and the air drawn in by the fan flows through an evaporator of the evaporator unit. The conditioning unit is downstream from the evaporator unit. The blower unit is disposed below the conditioning unit.

1. A heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system for a vehicle comprising: a blower unit including a fan, wherein the fan draws in air;an evaporator unit including an evaporator, wherein the evaporator unit is downstream from the blower unit in an air flow direction, and the air drawn in by the fan flows through the evaporator; anda conditioning unit defining an air passage, wherein the conditioning unit is downstream from the evaporator unit in the air flow direction and conditions the air flowing in the air passage, and the blower unit is disposed at a position lower than the conditioning unit along a vertical axis of the vehicle;wherein: the conditioning unit includes a heat exchanger;the blower unit and the evaporator unit define an expansion region that substantially extends from the fan towards the evaporator along the vertical axis of the vehicle;the evaporator and the heat exchanger are arranged to be substantially parallel to each other along the vertical axis of the vehicle and to be spaced away from each other along a first direction perpendicular to the vertical axis; andthe evaporator and the heat exchanger overlap the fan in a second direction parallel to the vertical axis when viewed from a side of the vehicle such that the evaporator and the heat exchanger are confined to an area having a width less than a width of the blower unit, wherein the area is defined by two linear lines extending parallel to the vertical axis and the second direction, the two linear lines are adjacent to opposite sides of the blower unit. 2. The heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system of claim 1 further comprising: a flue, wherein the blower unit is coupled to the flue and draws in air from outside of the vehicle via the flue. 3. The heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system of claim 1 further comprising: a housing for housing the blower unit, the evaporator unit, and the conditioning unit, wherein a portion of the housing in which the conditioning unit is disposed is above a portion of the housing in which the blower unit is disposed. 4. A heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system for a vehicle comprising: a flue defining a passage;a blower unit including a fan, wherein the blower unit is coupled to the flue, and the fan draws in air from outside the vehicle via the flue;an evaporator unit including an evaporator, wherein the evaporator unit is downstream from the blower unit in an air flow direction, and the air drawn in by the fan flows through the evaporator; anda conditioning unit defining an air passage, wherein the conditioning unit is downstream from the evaporator unit in the air flow direction and conditions the air flowing in the air passage from the evaporator, the conditioning unit is substantially adjacent to a dashboard of the vehicle, and the blower unit is below the conditioning unit along a vertical axis of the vehicle;wherein: the conditioning unit includes a heat exchanger;the blower unit and the evaporator unit define an expansion region that substantially extends from the fan towards the evaporator along the vertical axis of the vehicle;the evaporator and the heat exchanger are arranged to be substantially parallel to each other along the vertical axis of the vehicle and to be spaced away from each other along a first direction perpendicular to the vertical axis; andthe evaporator and the heat exchanger overlap the fan in a second direction parallel to the vertical axis when viewed from a side of the vehicle such that the evaporator and the heat exchanger are confined to an area having a width less than a width of the blower unit, wherein the area is defined by two linear lines extending parallel to the vertical axis and the second direction, the two linear lines are adjacent to opposite sides of the blower unit. 5. The heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system of claim 4 further comprising: a housing for housing the blower unit, the evaporator unit, and the conditioning unit, wherein a portion of the housing in which the conditioning unit is disposed is above a portion of the housing in which the blower unit is disposed. 6. The heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system of claim 4 wherein the flue includes a door disposed along the passage to control the amount of air being drawn in.
