Toyota has uploaded a video highlighting the sound of the hydrogen-powered engine used by its new Corolla Sport race car — and it sounds like hydrogen might be just what we need to save the engine exhaust note.
If you’re a car guy, you might have noticed that in recent years, there seems to be an inverse relationship between the performance of a new sports car and the sound of its exhaust. For example, the next-gen Porsche 911 Turbo S, the final boss of quarter-mile drag races, sounds like a souped-up vacuum cleaner.
