Some of the electric cars have artificial noise that is far, far louder than any combustion engine. There is one that sounds like a spaceship hum from the movies that I can hear in my apartment despite not reallly hearing any ICE engines other than delivery trucks.
they aren’t though… all i can hear when they are on is the loud whirrring of the electronic motors. i like of hate it tbh, regular cars aren’t as loud to me.
The whirring is from a speaker. The electric motors are insanely quiet. On cars that don’t pretend to have sounds through a speaker, you’re basically just hearing the tires on the floor and the HVAC fans.
I hear them all the time, they seem to make the same amount of noise as a ICE, unless it’s a big engine truck/sports car.
This is mainly relevant in parking spaces. My car is basically completely silent when I’m going below 20 kph or so.

Whoever designed that one went overboard.
