Feb. 6 – Franklin, Tenn. – The all-electric Nissan LEAF may be known for being quiet on the outside,
but now it’s in concert on the inside with the first custom-designed
Bose® Energy Efficient Series sound system available on the 2013 model
that goes on sale this month.The Bose system in the LEAF delivers powerful, high-quality audio, but with a significantly smaller and lighter footprint than conventional systems and at about half the electrical current.
“Early adopters of EVs were thrilled to have a zero-emissions
vehicle and now that we’re expanding the market and it matures, many
customers are asking for more amenities in their EV,” said Brendan Jones, Nissan director of EV marketing.“We wanted to be able to give them a premium sound system and be conscientious about the amount of energy required to do so.”
Nissan, which now assembles the LEAF, its battery and its electric motor all in Tennessee, introduced an expanded range of trim levels for the 2013 LEAF. The Bose system is available as part of the premium package on SV and SL models.
