Simulated engine sounds

It's not loud enough, LOL....Does anyone know how to turn up the volume on it?

Drive faster?

I agree, it's really much too minimal. I understand lots of people want it off and do turn it off, and am glad that option exists for people who do not like it. But for those of us that do like it, the loudest I have ever heard it is only like an idle on an ICE - I wish I could get it higher.

To me, it adds to the liveliness of the vehicle. It's just otherwise too subdued, like something I would want in a Lexus, not a performance vehicle.

Our 4X isn’t due until early Oct but I’ll prob leave propulsion sounds on when I drive it. It sounded decent when we did the overnight test drive. But, I’m a V8 guy who is also going to be getting into a ‘19-20 GT350 in the next 2 years, so there’s that. What I want Ford to do is offer sounds of Mustangs through history as an OTA. It would be fun, if unnecessary. Better than fart sounds ?.
I’d pick my sound to be an ‘87-93 GT/LX 5.0 with a set of 2-chamber Flowmasters. ??

re: increasing the propulsion sound volume. Has anyone tried twisting the volume knob while listening to the sound? With the audio system off...

My son turned it on the other day and I think it was making me sick.

I'll try that tomorrow and report back, thanks for the tip!

The sound on unbridled is amazing. They did a great job at implementing it. I wish I could turn the volume up on it.

I do wish there was some options for it. I really like the Taycan sound

To me, the propulsion sounds are like [insert diet here] bread, or pizza, or bacon. At their best, they are a sad example of the real thing. If you want to eat Paleo, that’s great, eat Paleo. Quit trying to convince yourself that you can still eat cupcakes and still be paleo compliant. Same goes for EV’s pretending to sound like cammed hellcats, or whatever other sound they want to use to pretend these aren’t very quiet vehicles. Just enjoy the music of the radio. If you need a thumpy V-8 sound, get a thumpy V-8 car.

Really? It's fun not serious GEEZ, Like one person said it's the TECH of the thing.....Showing off innovation is all! Not trying to be a muscle car no EV can simulate that feel!

I agree it would not work well if it was pretending to sound like an ICE, but when it’s its own sound it works. Big fan of the E-Tron’s sound too.

I just turn it on to show my friends. The volume is too low, wish I could turn it up a bit.

You sound fun at parties.

If only it sounded more like a space ship.

From the planet Feline9?

Scratch that. I’d probably end up chasing it. ?
