Amerigon revolutionized seat comfort by introducing the Climate Control Seat® in 1999, the world's first thermoelectric-based cooled and heated seat. The CCS® cooled/heated seat helped to create a new market and provide a new level of comfort not experienced since the introduction of in-vehicle air conditioning in the 1960's.
Today, over 90 vehicle nameplates worldwide offer some form of cooling or vented seat systems, with many vehicles offering these seats as standard equipment.
