Drivers
today generally spend longer periods in their vehicles, and use them more
and more frequently. Comfort, at the wheel or in a passenger seat, has taken
on greater importance, and the overall "feel" of the vehicle interior
makes an important contribution to the vehicle's perceived
quality. Faurecia targets its search for
innovative ways of improving the comfort level inside the vehicle in three
specific areas: acoustic
comfort, thermal
comfort, postural
comfort
Thermal
comfort is achieved when the vehicle occupants are satisfied with
the temperature, humidity, velocity and general quality of the air in
the vehicle interior. Acoustic
comfort means ensuring a quiet ride by reducing both exterior and
interior noise through the use of cost-effective solutions that do not
incur any additional weight. Occupants also expect to experience postural
comfort in a vehicle whatever their size and weight, and whether they
are on the highway or on a mountain road.
