An acoustic barrier panel for reducing transmission of sound between a motor vehicle engine compartment and a motor vehicle passenger compartment includes an integral motor vehicle heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) unit condensate deflector. The HVAC unit condensate deflector may be defined in a material of the acoustic barrier panel. The HVAC unit condensate deflector may include a condensate reservoir portion in fluid communication with a condensate drainage channel portion. The condensate reservoir portion and the condensate drainage portion may include at least one interior layer formed of a hydrophobic material. By the integral HVAC condensate deflector, condensate draining from a motor vehicle HVAC unit is deflected whereby contact with an exhaust system of the motor vehicle is avoided.
