Anyone else love the sounds this car makes?
This is probably controversial, but I love the fake engine and braking noise. It give me vibes that cross between a space ship and a void creature.
What I really like is that it’s not there most of the time. Only during hard acceleration or breaking. So I don’t get tired of it, and when it does come on, I’m pleasantly surprised.
There’s also something pleasant but luxurious about the external car lock and unlock sound. Not a harsh beep like other cars, just smooth and inviting.
What I hated was the internal reverse sound. When I first got the car I was astounded how annoying loud it was. Fortunately you can ask Lexus to disable it, which improved the driving experience immensely.
The external reverse sound is so quiet I’m surprised it’s legal, but I guess there are some EVs (Teslas I think) that don’t turn there’s on at all.
