The sound of a teenager driving dad’s midlife crisis just moments before smashing into the side of a building

  I didn’t hear a corvette?

    So the sound of the impact is how you distinguish the sound of an old corvette with an automatic transmission and the sound of a GM powered boat as both their engines are from the same family?

I wonder if this from the spaceballs movie and whether they had to license the sound ...

I don't get it. OK there are sounds to let you know the car is falling apart constantly, but this one is ambient sound of people encouraging you to accelerate??

  It's a joke. That clip is supposed to be your passengers.

    I still don't understand. Is that a feature of the vehicle or not? Is this an April Fool's joke or is there a setting that cheers on the driver while accelerating? I see some individuals took insult to my question. Some of the sounds are pings and pops and knocks to mimic a combustable engine. What is this sound for?

      It's the sound your passengers make, which is a joke.

      The car doesn't make the sound. The documentation jokes that your passengers do.

Props to the person/team owning docs at Tesla. This made Tesla as a brand more humane in my book.

  Thought the car would actually play that sound effect on Ludicrous mode.

  This is the kinda good natured fun that I really liked Tesla for before they announced an armored vehicle that's designed in a way to increase the likelihood of accidentally running over your kids playing in the driveway.

    Alternately, it’s designed in a way that almost all trucks and SUVs in the US are designed, in a way that is generally expected/preferred by customers who buy those vehicles. I also don’t like it, but it’s not Tesla’s fault that that’s where the market is. I’ve heard from so many foolish people who don’t understand physics that they feel safer driving a big heavy vehicle and being up high. The armor has nothing to do with the height and sight lines; it’s also not anything specific to the Cybertruck. Even midsize SUVs now are so high up and boxy that you can’t see in front of the front bumper. I was in an Escalade or Expedition or Tahoe or something the other day on the way to JFK and noticed that the center console screen has an option to view a front-bumper-cam. It’s nuts. If this is truly a problem that needs affirmative fixing, it seems that auto industry regulation (which is already mandating cellular transceivers in vehicles, so it is definitely in scope) would be the place to address this. Expecting market participants to kneecap themselves in the face of clear market demand (especially whilst already fighting the risky and uphill battle that is EV adoption) is not fair or realistic. IMO it could be covered in giant sharp stainless steel hedgehog spikes and be nicknamed the Childslayer and it’s probably still less dangerous to our society than something that burns petrochemicals. If you want to regulate something for safety, ban the sale of gasoline/diesel and the use of internal combustion engines.
