Mimicking sound and run of ICEs id the most absurd pro-reactionary move possible, sorry.
BTW since current motors ad high speed have heating issues having a REAL mechanical "extra gear" (3 gears actually, one very short for very steep passages and tight parking, a normal one, a high one) might be interesting, but to understand that engineers need to drive EVs. Today they seems not doing so.
It's the same history for p.v. missed integrations: most engineers and decision makers seem not to have p.v. at home, so they do not feel the need and the opportunity of such integration.

- theshrike79 2y agoEven ICE vehicles have fake sounds nowadays. The engines are quiet and the cabins are so well insulated that the engine sounds some people love don't carry. So they play fake sounds through the stereo. https://www.bimmer-tech.net/blog/item/137-bmw-active-sound-design https://www.bimmer-tech.net/blog/item/137-bmw-active-sound-d...
- ryandrake 2y agoI used to think this was a dumb idea, but when you think about it: The only person who wants to hear a car's vroom-vroom noises is the driver. So it makes sense to play the fake noises back through the internal speakers--they're only there for the entertainment of one person. You should be able to turn it off if you don't care about vroom-vroom.
