UMW Toyota (UMWT) has uploaded yet another teaser for the launch of the Toyota Corolla Cross, but this time they also teased that the event will be the first car launch in 8D audio in Malaysia. What is 8D audio?
According to our research, 8D audio is a surround sound system that is currently all the rage for audiophiles across the world. 8D audio uses the principles of binaural recording to trick our brains into thinking that sounds are coming from different places.
The effect is said to be similar to one where you will hear sounds coming from all around you when in the city, but instead of random sounds like car horns, footsteps, or constructions, you are listening to music. So, the launch will give you an immersive experience.
There isn’t a time in memory that doesn’t involve staring at cars. After discovering the excitement of watching Schumacher vs Hakkinen, Formula 1 became a major part of life. The love for cars and F1 ultimately led to a job with CAR Magazine. The untimely death of the magazine meant a hiatus from cars at lifestyle women’s magazine Marie Claire before another opportunity came knocking again.
