Well this was disappointing. Full throttle but almost no sound at all. At least compared to the previous generation.
New F-type. Extremely quiet.

I think the driver blew the guarantee on his engine : this is not 'running in' ..

That's pretty sad, even my V6 OPF/GPF model sounds great compared to this and is already a bit muted compared to before. At least it had the same character though:
It's probably because of even stricter noise regulations that are coming about 2024 I heard, every new car with an active valve exhaust is getting a lot quieter.

Vika, there's no doubt about it. I am an AWD R owner and have watched thousands of F-Type R clips on YouTube and the new R is definitely dumbed down. WTF is that sound after 4 seconds on the new R?! It's a sound which I've never heard before on any of the current F-Type R's when accelerating. There's no doubt about it; noise/pollution regulations have really softened the sound.
