Reverse sound

I currently have Nissan Leaf and when I take reverse the sound is very high. Does Ariya also have same setup or little less

All EVs have it. Our ioniq5 and original EV Ioniq and now Aria, all have it. Aria one is louder than our Ioniqs.

I have never heard it in any of the videos. Wonder how it sounds.

We also have 23 ID.4 and it’s not as loud as leaf.

Here's a video I took of the Ariya backing up using ProPilot Park assist during this past summer's Ride and Drive event in MA. If you crank up the volume, you can get an idea of the reverse sound compared to nearby road noise.

The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration issued its final ruling in February 2018, and requires the device to emit warning sounds when traveling at speeds less than 18.6 mph (30 km/h) with compliance by September 2020,

The one I test drove at the dealer had a gentle chime sound when backing up. It was much quieter than our Kia EV, which is REALLY loud

IMO, the backup sound is noticeable but not obnoxious. Pretty much what one would want.

The Ariya’s backup sound seems identical to the 2021 Leaf’s that we had.

Just took delivery of my Ariya and there's only 1 beeper in the front right bumper. I'm trying to locate it either from the top or bottom soon and post pictures. For me it's way too loud and annoying.
