Nissan air con emits aromatherapy fragrances to reduce fatigue

Nissan has announced the British production of a new "Forest AC" air conditioning system, which systematically controls cabin temperature, ventilation, aroma and humidity to create an optimal interior environment. No more rolling down your window to get a breath of fresh air! They even provide air conditioning servicing as part of the system!

Utilizing a number of advanced technologies, the system is designed to recreate the refreshing climate, fragrance and natural breezes of relaxing forest settings. It was developed based on the results of a joint research study with the Tokyo University of Science on the effects of aroma on human mental activity.

Along with the air-cleaning and temperature control effect of conventional car air conditioners, the new Forest AC system offers 'additional control of air flow, humidity, aroma and other ambient factors that can influence the physiological state and senses of the driver and passengers.' Wowzers.

Nissan say we'll see Forest AC on the new Fuga scheduled to go on sale in the UK this year.
