“Nissan moved to Music City in 2006 and has been closely tied-in with the city’s vibrant music scene ever since, and we try to bring some of that emotion into every product we produce. With its headrest-based Bose sound system, Kicks drivers can get a taste of that enjoyment every time they go for a drive.”
