Nissan is the latest automaker to use Alexa and is offering it in a way that may even benefit customers who purchased their new cars up to two year ago. >Nissan said Wednesday a number of vehicles from 2016, 2017 and 2018 equipped with the NissanConnect Services will work with a new Alexa skill to perform functions such as starting the car, unlocking and locking the car, and turning the lights or horn on. The system needed to connect to Alexa is found in certain versions of vehicles such as the Altima, Maxima, Pathfinder, Rogue, Sentra, and Titan. It also covers the 2017 GT-R sports car, which means you can use Alexa to impress your neighbors with its engine roar. Amazon plans to add the skill to models later this month.
