Okay so to recap your rebuttal is coming from the context of “my last two cars were high end luxury vehicles with plentiful sound dampening” and “one of my cars is an extremely fast sports car”. Okay… yes from the standpoint of the 1% in their audi R8’s, I suppose ICE and EVs are equally quiet and lagless. I personally can’t speak to that so I’ll take your word.
But Comparing more normal people cars though like various mid range post 2020 Subarus, fords, rav4s, and 2010s Volvos, among others, those compared to EVs and plug in hybrids in EV mode including lower end ones like the crosstrek plug in hybrid - the latter were all quieter and had immediate acceleration w less lag compared those ice.
(And I’m excluding the 2025 stop start Subaru forester from that assessment because it’s lag is a whole other level from stopped. Not sure if that’s normal for all stop start cars, but perhaps this is the type of modern ICE innovation from the past 15years that the ev people are unaware of?)
Equally, airplane travel is a totally different experience when one is on a private jet or in first class versus taking southwest.
