Xc90 cabin noise
Just used a dB measuring tool on the iPhone (not scientific I know) to measure the DB noice in the car over a 15 mile drive (country roads and inner city mixed surfaces). Averaging between 30- 40 mph the volume was an average of 63db.
Car is a 2019 rdesign D5 on 20” latitude 3 boots. Anyone else tried measuring the sound? Not sure if that is noisy or quiet as haven’t done it in previous cars. |

63db is not noisy. They start to get noisy above 45 mph, unless on smooth tarmac. Do the same test on mixed roads above 45 mph.

Found this - https://www.auto-decibel-db.com/index_kmh.html
Seems average across the industry if accurate |

The Latitude tyres I had on my second XC90 were far better than the Pirelli scorpion and offered a quieter and smoother ride. So your lucky you've got those tyres.

Can you tell us which app to help standardise the results.
