Which mode of the Fista has engine sound enhancement?
2 Answers
The Fista's Comfort mode, Sport mode, Eco mode, and Smart Driving mode all feature enhanced engine sound. Taking the Fista 2021 280TGDi GLX Elite Edition as an example, its dimensions are 4660mm in length, 1790mm in width, and 1425mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. It has a fuel tank capacity of 53 liters and features a 4-door, 5-seater sedan body structure. In terms of power, it is equipped with a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine delivering a maximum power of 140 kW and a maximum torque of 265 Nm. For suspension, this model uses a MacPherson strut independent suspension at the front and a multi-link independent suspension at the rear.
I remember when driving the Fista, Sport mode was absolutely the one that unleashed the roar! The moment I switched to Sport, the engine's growl and backfire sound immediately filled the cabin, making it feel like sitting in a race car cockpit. In normal ECO or Comfort modes, the car is super quiet, perfect for commuting and saving fuel, but when Sport is activated, the sound noticeably intensifies. Official materials say it simulates this thrilling effect through speakers. Once on the highway in Sport mode, the sound was exhilarating, but I had to watch out for the slightly increased fuel consumption. I don't use it much for daily commutes to avoid disturbing the neighbors, but it's absolutely exhilarating for weekend mountain drives. The Fista's drive mode knob is very easy to operate—just switch back to Normal if the noise gets too much. In short, if you want that roaring experience, go straight for Sport mode without hesitation.
