I am utterly fascinated by the sound design work Audi has been doing in the last years. It's  not surprising that Audi's acoustics department is involved in the development of a new model, but what's so great is they had a spin to their "usual" job this time with the new Audi e-tron models, were they won't rely on the actual sound from the engine and later on attenuate or accentuate desired frequencies; they are actually designing the sound for the engine.

"In a series-production Audi, a combustion engine currently supplies the music. Conversely, the motor in an electric-powered e-tron is not an option, as it is too quiet and its high frequencies are not exactly melodious. Audi’s e-tron models will therefore feature a synthetic sound signature. Rudolf Halbmeir teamed up with his colleagues Axel Brombach and Dr. Lars Hinrichsen to create it."
