Nissan : Vitamin C air conditioningYOKOSUKA, Japan — In a riposte to those who think a reliance on cars is unhealthy, new Nissan models will feature air conditioners that pump breathable vitamin C and stress-reducing seats, the firm said Wednesday. The automaker plans to introduce air conditioners in its cars that spray vitamin C to moisturize skin and as well as air purifiers developed by Sharp. Technological innovations that fit in the new thinking of the Japanese constructor. Just like the new Forrest Air system on the new Infiniti M that simulates a normal breeze instead of forcing air continuously onto the passengers. The system also includes a fragrance dispenser, a grapeseed polyphenol filter and the new Plasmacluster technology that ionizes air entering the vehicle to eliminate odours. |
