Don't worry, you'll probably be able to simulate that with some kind of "retro mode". Many ICE cars already artificially pump in the sound of an older, nosier engine when you put them into sports mode. My 4 cylinder diesel GTD sounds like a V8 when I floor it (unless I have the windows open of course. In which case I can actually hear the engine and like all diesels it just sounds like a tractor). You'd just need to add some kind of engine response curve to the EV throttle[1] to simulate hitting the correct rev band/gear change. 1. Even that word is a retro throwback in an EV, as is "driver" when you really think about its etymology.
