The 2015 Ford Mustang's roar is allegedly a bogus, as it is suspected to be just intensified by its sounds system.
Without the Mustang's stereo system, the roar of Ford's latest model sounds more like a purr.
The multinational carmaker known for its luxury cars first launched the Ford Mustang back in 1984.
Now, Ford is trying to revive the Mustang with a topnotch EcoBoost engine with a powerhouse 2.3-liter that boosted both power and efficiency-a far cry from the original Mustang's 4-cylinder engine.
However, the 2014 For Mustang's EcoBoost engine and intense roar falls below expectations when the car's sound system is turned off.
The "glitch" was discovered by car magazine Road & Track's Jason Cammisa.
Camissa reportedly removed the sound system's fuse during a test drive, and exposed that the car was indeed voiceless without its sound system.
When asked about the Ford Mustang's roar and whether the 2.3-liter EcoBoost would sound like the vehicle's own, Chief Mustang Engineer Dave Perciak admitted that the car's engine would be improved if its stereo system was turned on.
"With the EcoBoost engine we have both active noise cancellation and we also amplify the existing engine sound order," stated Perciak.
"We don't create an artificial sound; we don't pluck one off the shelf; we bring in the real sound, process it, and play it through the car's speakers. Today's V6 sounds fantastic, and although the EcoBoost won't sound like a V8, it won't sound like it doesn't belong in a Mustang, either," Perciak added.
The Detroit-based car manufacturer collaborated with consumers and Mustang patrons to help them determine how the new 2015 Mustang should sound.
It came to no surprise that the Detroit-based car company would make a car with engine amplification and noise cancellation.
Ford launched the Mustang Boss 302 in 1969 and reinvented in 2012. The car is said to employ exhaust pipes to enhance its engine sound.
