The Sound Of Smugness
-
Next-generation Prius models, in Japan, at least, will offer an option to add a device that emits a sound when the car is running on battery power so that pedestrians can hear it coming. It's just an option, though, and just in Japan for now. They say that the sound is about as loud as a regular engine but "isn't annoying." Aren't Priuses by definition annoying?
