Looks like even more artificial sound is on the way.

Sorry, EU folks.



Honestly it reads like science fiction.



"Due to a new ruling in the European Parliament, electric auto makers will be forced to add artificial sound to vehicles sold in Europe by 2019."



"Due to a fear that mouse-quiet electric cars will be a danger to pedestrians — specifically those who are visually impaired — the European Parliament recently ruled that by July 1, 2019, all new electric cars in Europe must be outfitted with Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (ACAS) devices. Basically, the devices will replicate the sounds of combustion engines, with the exact specifications of them to be decided by 2017. The ruling is expected be affirmed by the European Council, making it law."
