A quiet cabin can bring luxury ambiance to any vehicle - helping to create a respite from the world outside and allow families to enjoy even the longest commutes. This is why some autos, such as the 2021 Chrysler Pacifica, use active noise cancellation (ANC) to create an exceptionally peaceful interior for passengers.ANC in a minivan works as it does in noise-cancelling headphones. Sensors in the vehicle detect exterior sounds (such as road vibrations) and funnels them into a digital signal processor (DSP). It creates an inverse of each sonic wave and sends it out through the stereo speakers.Â
ANC is not the only way to dampen noise in vehicles, however. Another method is to use acoustic glass for the windshield and side windows. Both these features are also available in the new Chrysler Pacifica, and they assure a more refined ride.Â
This double-layer glass surrounds a sheet of transparent vinyl, which acts as a sound-proof barrier. Some vehicles also use the same material as a laminate on the outside of the windows to help reduce road noise and improve the cabin experience.Â
