Abstract

An electrically or partially electrically driven vehicle has a system (1) for active sound design. Active sound design sounds emitted by one or more loudspeakers (5) are modified depending on the driver type and/or depending on the current driving style. The system (1) has at least one sensor for recording measurement parameters (2) that permit a classification of a current driving style and/or a driver type of a driver of the vehicle. The device (1) has a classification device (3) that is configured to determine the current driving style and/or driver type of the driver of the vehicle based on the measurement parameters (2) recorded by the at least one sensor. The system (1) has a sound control system for controlling and modifying the sounds emitted by the loudspeakers (5) based on the current driving style and/or driver type classified by the classification device (3).
