That was my first thought too
We were going up mountainous foothills, with the air conditioner on full, at 70+ mph, with 2 people and luggage in the car, and still got 42-43 mpg.
That was nice.

Ethel Merman the way I’ll always remember her. Loved that movie.
Inspired by the Cone of Silence.
I hope it's as reliable as the real thing.
I like the new design of the 2018 Elanta GT. I really miss the versatility of a Hatchback. For the life of me I can't understand the crappy Gas mileage rating of only 32 mpg highway. The same 2.0 motor in the Sedan version is rated at EPA 38 mpg. WHATS UP WITH DAT?

Active sound manipulation is not exactly a new idea. At least 20 years ago Lotus Motor Cars once employed Amar Bose (of Bose speaker fame) to design active noise cancellation for their cars. Rather than resort to better engineering to eliminate creaks, squeaks and groans in their cars, their idea was just to ignore their existence during the design phase, then acoustically neutralize the annoying sounds when they materialized in production.
Bose also designed the first practical active automotive suspension system, which has been plagiarized by several different racing series and probably will finally arrive in a production car by 2020.
