An idling gas engine may be annoyingly loud, but that’s the price you pay for having WAY less torque available at a standstill.

    This is the true valid complaint against electric. Electric vehicles are super boring to drive, even when they have insanely good performance.

    It is not just the lack of noise and vibration. Too consistent maybe? It is like going fast in a video game. Something is just missing in an EV.

      I always found it interesting that Rolls-Royce had to let vibrations and noise in the back of their cars. Moving in a car without identifiers really trips with the brain.

      Welcome to downvote city, where every comment that brings forth negative aspects of EVs are downvoted!

      I agree btw.
