Active Sound Design - what exactly is it?

I’m having trouble understanding what this feature is or how it works. Is anyone more familiar with it?

Thanks in advance!

I think it generates some engine noise inside the cabin. It’s kind of silly, but I can’t deny that I have mine on.

Engine sounds through your speakers.

I truly think it creates a simulated sound of your car engine that makes it sound powerful. To be honest, I keep mine on moderate because I don’t mind imagining my car has some muscle.

Its purpose is to introduce engine and road noise into the cabin. However, in the GT model, it really doesn’t make a difference, at least based on my experience!

A microphone is located in front of the firewall beneath the windshield wiper cover, which transmits engine sounds to the speakers at different volume levels.
