Microphones inside the all-new 2014
Cadillac CTS listen to the roar of the engine,
and the electronic sound enhancement
system selects
preferred tones to come through CTS’s
Bose audio system.
Electronic enhancement tunes engine sound for different
driving modes
Cadillac engineers applied the principles of
psychoacoustics, the science of sound perception, and car-guy instinct to
create powerful and pleasant exhaust notes for the all-new 2014 CTS midsize
luxury sedan and CTS Vsport.
Knowing that engine sound communicates throttle response to
the driver, CTS engineers uniquely tuned each selectable driving mode – Tour,
Sport and Track – to provide the driver with a specific sound impression of
what’s happening under the hood.
