Does the Xingrui have exhaust sound?

The Xingrui does not have exhaust sound. To have exhaust sound, modifications are required. Origin of car exhaust sound: Car exhaust sound is produced by removing the muffler from the exhaust system, allowing the engine to directly exhaust into the environment, resulting in loud noise. Exhaust sound is a complex issue. Many people's understanding of exhaust sound is limited to the exhaust pipe, which indeed can affect the sound, but it is not the origin of the sound. Generation of exhaust sound: The generation of exhaust sound depends firstly on the design of the exhaust backpressure, which comes in various forms and produces different sounds. Secondly, it depends on the engine's displacement, number of cylinders, cylinder arrangement, and whether it is naturally aspirated, turbocharged, or supercharged. The same backpressure exhaust pipe will produce different sounds on different engines. The price of the car is not very important; the key is the internal design of the exhaust system. For example, Ferrari's exhaust is designed by specialized fluid dynamics and sound effect experts. With good design, the desired exhaust sound can be achieved.
As an average car owner, I've noticed that the stock exhaust sound of my Xingrui is quite subdued in daily driving, lacking any noticeable roar. This is actually a deliberate design feature - Geely engineers prioritized optimizing engine noise control to make it run quieter and more comfortable, ideal for urban commuting. Having driven this car for over half a year now, whether cruising on highways or navigating stop-and-go city traffic, the engine remains remarkably discreet, almost completely devoid of the rumbling sounds commonly heard in modified vehicles. If you're seeking an exhilarating driving experience with roaring exhaust notes, you might be disappointed; but its low noise levels genuinely enhance driving comfort, especially beneficial for long-distance trips or when carrying family and friends. Overall, the factory-standard Xingrui doesn't produce exhaust roar - this design prioritizes fuel efficiency, environmental friendliness, and daily practicality, unless you choose to modify the exhaust system yourself.
As an auto mechanic, I have to say the Xingrui comes with virtually no factory-configured engine roar, as it's equipped with either a 1.5T or 2.0T turbocharged engine designed with noise reduction and fuel efficiency in mind. From my inspections of customer vehicles, the exhaust systems are all sealed to keep sound levels within compliance. Engine roar typically comes from aftermarket exhaust modifications or high-displacement engine conversions, which the Xingrui's factory settings deliberately avoid to prevent excessive noise or regulatory violations. I'd advise owners seeking more growl to consider exhaust modifications, but they must be mindful of legal limits to avoid fines. Meanwhile, the stock quiet setup protects electronic components and reduces wear, benefiting long-term maintenance. In summary, based on standard inspections, it delivers subdued sound ideal for practical driving unless modified.
