Pedestrian warning noise?

3347 Views 13 Replies 12 Participants Last post by  Stockholm Volt
I've heard that there is a mandatory "noise required" legislation to prevent pedestrians from being hit at low speeds which involves EVs being required to emit some sort of sound? Does the Volt have this? I can't hear anything when I'm slowly driving mine? (damn pedestrians are probably zoned out with their face in their phone and/or their earbuds on anyway)

The sound is faint. Put the car in gear and engage the parking brake. Walk to the front of the car. If you have it, you will hear it. I only hear it with my windows down in the garage.
