Follows your real speed
GPS speed in, revs out. Floor it and the engine revs harder and shifts later. Lift off and it crackles on the overrun.
Your Tesla is fast.
Brilliant.
And completely silent.
Until now.

Scroll to drive · V8 Muscle
Idle. Then a blip.
A lumpy crossplane burble at 760 rpm. Stopped at a light? Hold REV and it barks.
Floor it.
First gear. The revs climb, the pipes open up and the intake roars.
Shift.
A real gearbox with real ratios. The revs drop and the pull goes on.
Keep going.
Third, fourth, all the way up. Every rev follows the speed, the way a real engine would.
Lift off.
Pops and crackle on the overrun. Scroll back up and do it again.
Now picture it in your Tesla.
In the car the same engine follows your real speed. Nothing you just heard was a recording.
Hear the real synthesizer, revved by your scroll.
Not a loop
Built live,
one pulse at a time.
Most fake engine noise loops a recording, so it never really matches the car. TeslaSound builds the sound in real time from your speed. It models the firing order, every exhaust pulse, the pipes, the intake roar and the gearbox, so what you hear is what a real engine would do at that speed.
How it sounds real
From your speed to your speakers.
-
01
Firing order
Each cylinder fires in the real engine's order. That uneven beat is why a crossplane V8 lopes and a V12 howls.
-
02
Exhaust pulses
Every firing is its own pulse of sound, never quite the same twice, like real metal and real combustion.
-
03
Pipes & muffler
Pipe lengths, echoes and the muffler shape the tone, from a muffled stock car to open pipes.
-
04
Intake & whine
The intake roars under load. Where the car has a supercharger, you hear it whine as the revs climb.
-
05
Gearbox
Real ratios and shift points. Quick upshifts, rev-matched downshifts, and a clutch in the manual cars.
-
06
Your speakers
Mixed live in the browser and played through the car's speakers, like music. No files, no loops.
What you get
Feels like the real thing.
A real gearbox
Automatics, dual-clutch and a proper manual with a clutch. It blips and rev-matches on the way down when you brake.
Tune it your way
Intensity sets how eagerly it revs and how late it shifts. Character goes from a stock, muffled engine to a lumpy cam with open pipes. Crackle adds the pops and bangs.
Test drive anywhere
No car nearby? Press the Gas and Brake pedals on screen (lower presses harder, the top of Gas holds your speed) or play the demo run. Works on a phone or a laptop too.
The garage
14 sounds, and more on the way.
Engines modelled on real cars, made-up ones, an electric buzz and a few you would never find at a dealer. Pick one before you drive, switch any time.
Coming soon
More sounds coming
New cars land in the garage all the time, real and made-up. Got an engine you would love to hear in your EV? Tell us at lifemock@gmail.com.

Turn up the media volume and drive
It plays through the car speakers, like music. Accelerate harder for more revs.

Stopped at a light? Hold REV
Blip the throttle while you wait for green.
Works in
- Model 3, Model Y, Model S, Model X and Cybertruck
- Other EVs with a modern web browser
- A phone on the car speakers over Bluetooth
Good to know
- Keep your music on. Play Spotify or the radio as usual and the engine sound plays along with it.
- It plays inside the car, like music. A web page cannot use the outside Boombox speaker.
- Expect a short delay: the revs follow your speed about half a second behind.
- Keep the page open. The sound stops when the browser goes to the background.
