Fake Sound?

My brother has his on all the time in the Taycan. The kids like it. Also if i got another ICE/EV car it has to have a nice sound also for sense of speed.

It might be nice to have it off on a long distance motorway cruise and back on in city driving. Each to their own I say.

For pedestrian safety its important to have some sound externally. I had a guy with an EV ask me if i could hear his. I said "yes but its still dangerous" sarcastically. Basically it needs to be louder externally.

There goes the Prius wondering why people are walking in front of his car with their backs turned all the way to the store entrance

If you really want fake sound, get this system.

Well when they ask you to rev it.....

It came with the Electroinduction sound set when I collected it, but after trying both sounds at all levels I have switched it off and am surprised how clearly I can hear the sounds of the countryside, birds singing etc, when driving with the roof down, even at reasonable speeds.

Yes, I remember when we went to Regent Street to see the Gumball Rally coming through a few years ago, and the local radio presenter, a Blonde girl who clearly had no clue about cars, was interviewing the drivers as they entered Regent Street, asking stupid questions and finishing with Give it a Rev, which was a crowd pleaser for the Astons, Bugatti's and Ferraris and hilarious when the Tesla Model S driver was asked to give it a rev..

Lol well we experience the loud pops and bangs here in my area daily from Merc, BMW boys. I think a hi vis jacket and a radar gun from Ebay will scare them away. Excess Noise is for small brained kids.

I enjoy a v6 and v8 from time to time as a car Enthusiast. Even a v10. But after a while it becomes tedious. These cars were made to be cold started in mansion garages and driven in the countryside or mountains. But when in residential area people should have some common sense. Noise cameras are coming in nationwide. Good luck

Yes, I agree, I love the Burble of the American V8's but it does get tiring after a while on a long drive, and we also have the boy racers here with extra loud exhausts and popping and banging, one of whom goes to work past my house at 5 am. At least when I go out early in my electric car I don't disturb anyone.

Does the Cyberster have external sound generation for pedestrians at low speeds. I didnt hear it or when reversing.
