Harman Marks Several Firsts at Geneva Auto Show

At this year’s Geneva Auto Show, audio entertainment giant Harman is announcing the introduction of its hardware and technology in multiple upcoming automotive makes and models.

According to Harman, their systems will come to Volvo for the first time, with audio equipment hitting the V40, V/S60, V/XC70 and XC60 lines.

Moving from Sweden to Germany, the BMW i8, X3M, X4 and 4-Series Grand Coupé will join other of the German automaker’s models with Harman infotainment systems. BMW sister company MINI and its F56 will have that line’s first HUD via Harman tech.

The new Audi TT roadster will get the Harman treatment, alongside the Porsche Macan and 911 Targa.

For those shopping even higher on the scale, the new Lamborghini Huracan will be the first of the Bologna HQ’d super cars to receive Harman systems.

Finally, back on Earth, the Jeep Cherokee debuting in Geneva will be the first of its kind to be Harman-ized with a Uconnect infotainment system.

Earlier this year, Harman introduced its new MP3-restoring Clari-Fi system (formerly Signal Doctor) at CES 2014. The plan is to include the tech in 2015 autos.
