Rolls-Royce Ghost Prototypes Made People Feel Sick
Bloomberg learned from Rolls-Royce chief engineer Jon Simms that during early testing in the car’s five-year development period, the car was so quiet it caused those people to become disoriented, “bordering on nausea.”
Obviously, that’s not a good thing for any vehicle, especially for something considered to be ultra-luxury. How did engineers fix this? Simple. They just found ways to make the car’s ride louder. For example, engineers developed a soft cabin undertone by tuning the rear seat frames and other trunk components to vibrate at a specific low frequency. They also recalibrated the V12 engine and opted against offering rev-inducing driving modes such as sport or track.
