Nissan Motor Co Ltd has developed a new air conditioning system named 'Forest AC' which has been designed using a number of advanced technologies to increase cabin comfort with refreshing climate, fragrances and natural breeze of relaxing forest settings. It controls cabin temperature, humidity, aroma and ventilation systematically to create an optimal interior environment.
Driver's mental activities have been studied to design AC system for the first time and as a result, additional control of flow of air, humidity and aroma in addition to air cleaning and temperature control have been introduced which significantly affect the physiological state of passengers.
The major features of this forest AC, according to the company sources, are:
- Breezy Air
- Aroma
- Humidity Control
- Active control of Ventilation
- Odor Sensors
This Forest AC system generates 'plasmacluster ions' through ventilation system at higher densities helping maintain cabin air quality by improving reduction of airborne microbes and increased adhere odor reduction. In addition, it also uses a high performance filter which removes allergens more effectively.
"Forest AC" is expected to be launched with the new Fuga this year.
