Cadillac CTS engine sounds are technologically advanced, but still natural

Feel and hear the roar of the CTS Twin-Turbo engine. How important is it to hear the sound of your car’s engine? Well, if you have a performance model vehicle, it probably is a little more important. Even though vehicle manufacturers are making great strides in providing quiet rides for drivers and passengers, the fact is – sometimes we want to hear the growl of our engines.

2014 Cadillac CTS Engine Sounds

At Cadillac, there was great effort devoted to the sounds coming out of the new Cadillac CTS. Understanding that drivers rely on the sounds coming out of the CTS to determine throttle response, engineers on the CTS tuned each driving mode on the CTS to sound a certain way. The result is some great 2014 Cadillac CTS engine sounds. The first mode is Tour mode, which is the most common “everyday driving” mode for the vehicle. The CTS is programmed to provide a purr of refinement when in this mode. The next, Sport mode, provides a little more growl to let drivers know that they are getting some serious response from the pedal. The final mode is Track mode, available only on the CTS Vsport with the Cadillac Twin-Turbo engine. As you can imagine, this version gives off a real “Roar.” (Just in time for Katy Perry’s newest hit). You may be wondering how the company engineered the 2014 Cadillac CTS engine sounds. The process actually includes microphones in the cabin of the vehicle. The integrated electronic sound enhancement provides the “just right” pitch for every driving mode on the new CTS. This doesn’t mean that artificial sounds were used – they were just perfectly tuned using the Bose audio system. So if you needed another reason to try out the new Cadillac CTS, this would be it. Take it for a test drive and take a listen to the engine through the awesome sound system. Hear the roar of the CTS.
