Air filters for healthier driving

Even with closed car windows, soot, dust, pollen and exhaust fumes find their way into cars while driving. The pollutants are induced through the ventilation system in the car's interior and can be directly inhaled by passengers. The level of such pollutants inside cars can be up to six times as high as on the street. The most effective protection is an active charcoal filter: It filters almost all dust and dirt from the induced air and absorbs up to 90 percent of dangerous and unpleasant smelling gases. Even microscopic particles such as pollen and bacteria have almost no chance of getting through the filter and into the car. So hay-fever sufferers can also breathe freely.

Plus: You can install active charcoal filters from Bosch quickly and easily yourself. They are available for almost all vehicle types from garages, Bosch Service points and spare parts retailers for around 15 Euro. You will find information and advice on installing or changing your filter on our Web site.
