Ohh, yeah there definitely is that. It’s legally mandated. It sounds reasonable on the Fusion Hybrid and I imagine it’s the same.
The Toyota sound is out of this world…

hah I just watched that a minute ago trying to find other examples, that is bizarre

Ah I maybe misread the first question about fake sound — I’m wondering if there is external artificial (i.e. safety) sound since the hybrid can theoretically be in EV mode at pedestrian-injuring speeds, and also the ICE can turn off during deceleration at even higher speeds, right? I saw that there’s an artificIal backup sound from video reviews since thats EV only in reverse.
Typically the pedestrian alert noises shut off over 15-20 mph as then the wheel/aero noise of the vehicle is loud enough to be noticeable.

I really really doubt it. Auto makers only usually do this on performance vehicles to make it seen more familiar or natural, but the hybrid already sounds strange with the eCVT keeping the revs up. The appeal of hybrid isquietness and fuel economy. Fake noises are out of character
We had a million rides now and no one spoke about this and other important questions. All these promo videos are just a marketing fluff. Very annoying.

All hybrids beep in reverse. My 2021 escape scares my wife in reverse she thinks the door is ajar. Someday i will tell her the truth.

Wow, the sound of the RAV4 backing up is annoying! I hope the Maverick backing up doesn’t sound anything like that. It seems like I remember one review video showing it backing up and it was just making a small beep sound. I can’t remember which video it was on now…

I would much prefer the beep over the sound the RAV4 makes personally.

I thought all the Hybrids were delayed awaiting EPA approval? Did I miss something? How did this guy get a Hybrid delivered?

Anyway, it was a great video, and like others mentioned, he should have reset the trip meter before making the video!

TFL Truck's video.

Presumably the same press event in Nashville the other drive reviews are from.

Weird question but the ball game is not going my way- is that what cicadas sound like in the beginning? I mean the loud background noise.

Probably. Here is what it sounds like in Oklahoma at night from my back porch.

Great, thank you! Not amazing deals but pretty decent, I'll probably go for the 60 months.

All Weather Floor Liner observation; if you pause the video at exactly 3:26 you will see the floor liners are Tan. Other pictures and videos of the XLT they are Grey. Since there is only one part number to order the liners how do we know if we will get Tan or Grey? I want the Grey ones.
yikes!
