What are Nissan Zero Gravity Seats?
July 26 2021,
Nissan Zero Gravity Seats are unique in the industry and designed to provide the highest level of comfort both the driver and his or her occupants. But what exactly are Zero Gravity Seats and why should you care? After all, a seat is a seat, no? Well not exactly.
If you have back problems or joint problems, you know that the quality of the seat can have a direct impact on how you feel. When driving, having a quality seat is even more important, especially if you have to drive long hours. That’s where Nissan’s zero gravity seats come into play.
Nissan’s Zero Gravity Seats took over a decade to design, and the company used engineers from NASA to make sure the seats provided the highest level of support. The seats are inspired by space, and more specifically the weightlessness of space.
Astronauts will tell you that in space, the lack of gravity means that your spine assumes a neutral posture, that is a position where there is no pressure on the bones or joints. In such a situation, the body is relaxed, and you don’t become fatigued.
Zero Gravity Seats are designed to replicate this phenomenon.
The seats use 14 different pressure points that put your spine in a neutral position, thus replicating the lack of gravity found in space. These points gently nudge your body into a a natural, ergonomic position that maximizes blood flow across the body and help keep your energy up.
The seats first appeared in 2013 and are now offered on the vast majority of Nissan models. Years of testing were needed before the seats were designed, and Nissan even took blood samples of the people testing the seats in the development phase to measure lactic acidity levels.
Zero Gravity Seats mean better comfort and less fatigue behind the wheel of your Nissan vehicle. Come try them today!
