So in the early days of Hybrids (2001/2002), we Prius owners used to think about how to create a slow speed sound effect as a safety function, so when the cars operated on pure electric, unwary pedestrians were made a little safer. We used to speculate about favorite sound effect. Mine in order of preference were:
1) “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang” car sound effect (CHKA CHKA PSH PSH)
2) Kinght Rider/Cylon Scanner sound efffect( Wooh Woooh)
3) Jetsons Car sound effect (pbebebebebebebe)
Someone at Rivian who likes whimsy and safety.... please think about giving me an external speaker that I can program with sounds.... slow speed sound, custom horn sound, custom car finder sound, custom security sound.
Anyone else want to add their two cents in? This was a spirited discussion 20 years ago.
