Tokyo Auto Salon: Small Car, BIG Sound
Sound Quality is a small specialty store in Chiba, across Tokyo Bay. They equipped a small Smart with sound so big that you can hear it on Ginza when they turn it on in Chiba.
This is a non-exhaustive sampling of the rear sub-woofers There are more elsewhere. They take up so much room that the carlet turned into a Smart for1.
And smart it is. We count six flat screens. The one in the steering wheel hopefully switches automatically from portrait to landscape.
Did we mention that there are more sub-woofers elsewhere?

Interesting they started with a 450 instead of a 451. The 450 was imported as a kei car, so I suppose they're easier to find there.
They might want to turn this over to a local medical university for research purposes. I think you might be able to use this to ultrasonically destroy gallstones, kidneystones and clean the plaque off your teath-simultaneously, whilst listing to your favorite tunes.
