Bringing a legend of rock and roll inside the 2019 Nissan TITAN, Nissan and Panasonic Automotive Systems Company of America will introduce the new Fender® Premium Audio System to the truck this fall. The 2019 TITAN will be the first Nissan vehicle and the only truck in its class to feature the Fender Premium Audio System.
Inspiring “the emotion of a live performance,” the Fender Premium Audio System includes 12 speakers (10 on King Cab models) with an amplifier power of 485 watts through nine channels. For a more precise immersive performance, the new Fender Premium Audio system incorporates Panasonic’s proprietary Acoustic Motion Control™ technology, which helps reduce vibration in the individual speakers to provide an immersive and detailed sound unlike any in its class.
“Every adventure requires a great soundtrack,” said Fred DePerez, vice president, Nissan North America LCV Business Unit. “With the new Fender Premium Audio System, every seat of the 2019 TITAN will feel like the front row at your favorite concert venue.”
“Panasonic’s exclusive collaboration with Fender has allowed us to develop a one-of-a-kind vehicle sound system with unsurpassed performance and authenticity,” said Tom Dunn, Director – Global Audio Solutions Business Unit, Panasonic Automotive Systems Company of America. “We have combined our 100 years of experience developing innovative consumer technology products and solutions with Fender’s mission to inspire players and music enthusiasts worldwide to create a premium audio system emotionally powerful enough to match the strength behind the 2019 TITAN.”
Panasonic Automotive, Fender and Nissan engineers and designers worked collaboratively to enhance the TITAN driving experience with a sound system that delivers rich, dynamic and immersive music quality. The 12 speakers featured in the Fender Premium Audio System in the 2019 TITAN have been strategically balanced and integrated into the design of the truck to deliver the emotion of a live performance for the driver and all passengers.
“At Fender, we’ve spent more than 70 years perfecting tone for players and music enthusiasts around the world, and we’re proud to see that same quality extend to our partnership with Panasonic and the Nissan family,” said Dan Heitkemper, Vice President, Licensing & Merchandising at Fender. “The Fender Premium Audio System delivers uncompromised quality and clarity in every row – producing the realistic ambience of a performance venue in the 2019 Nissan TITAN, a perfect blend for music and truck-lovers alike.”
