Driver Runs Tesla Cybertruck With Reverse Spaceship Sound

Two days ago we saw a Tesla driver unloading the Cybertruck from a semi-truck and I for the first time heard Cybertruck's somewhat-familiar and Toyota Prius-like pedestrian sound.

It's the Cybertruck's pedestrian noise, which you are about to hear. The sound is similar to what is used by Tesla today in vehicles like the Model 3, but one cannot deny that its futuristic tone fits the Cybertruck very well. This is why I thought it was a little creepy. However, other people on X call it a spaceship sound. So, how would you describe the Cybertruck's pedestrian noise? Please, share your opinion in the comments section as we move forward.

Before I let you hear the Cybertruck's pedestrian sound, I also want to ask where you think Tesla is taking these Cybertrucks? Taking to showrooms or delivery centers? Also. I already said that this sound is somewhat similar to Toyota Prius, but more to the sound of Tesla Model 3. Thus, do you think Cybertruck needs to have its own soundtrack?

By the way, as you drive the Cybertruck, I wonder if you can turn that sound off when off-roading, I would want that sound if out in the mountains and this spaceship noise scares away all the wildlife I am trying to spot and photograph, wrote one Tesla enthusiast on social media platform X.

Okay, so let's hear Cybertruck's sound.

 

What do you think of it? Like it? Does it remind you more like Toyota Prius when it usually enters the garage in reverse, or the sound of a Tesla Model 3?

Some truck owners call it a fake sound through speakers, which even the cheapest EVs have those and that real trucks don't need these fake sounds. However; this is required because electric vehicles are silent and regulators demand a certain level of sounds for safety.

If Tesla wanted to put a fake engine sound they could have, but why miss the opportunity to do something unique? I think Tesla is missing one interesting opportunity here to do something unique.

Some people on X say it's the default Tesla reverse sound. Others say they don't like it. Yet, others say Cybertruck sounds like a spaceship in reverse.

 The Tesla Cybertruck has been a particular source of amazement and controversy since its unveiling in 2019. The truck's angular design and stainless steel body panels have divided automotive design enthusiasts on whether it is cutting edge or just plain ugly.

Some people love the Cybertruck's futuristic look. They see it as a bold and refreshing departure from the traditional pickup truck design. They also appreciate the truck's unique features, such as its bulletproof windows and ability to tow up to 14,000 pounds.

Others, however, are not so fond of the Cybertruck's design. They find it to be too angular and ungainly. They also worry about the truck's practicality, such as its lack of a bed liner and its inability to fit in some garages.

Despite the criticism, the Cybertruck has been a commercial success. Tesla has received over 1.5 million pre-orders for the truck, and it is scheduled to go into production in 2023.

Only time will tell whether the Cybertruck will be a success. However, there is no doubt that it is a polarizing vehicle that has captured the attention of the automotive world.

I, for one, am a fan of the Cybertruck. I love its bold and futuristic design, and I think it will be a great addition to the Tesla lineup. However, I can also understand why some people might not like it. It's definitely not a truck for everyone.

But that's part of what makes the Cybertruck so interesting. It's a truck that challenges the status quo and forces people to think differently about what a pickup truck can be. And I think that's a good thing.
