The cost of running an electric car

[Cobaltblue]

Daylight running lights were made compulsory to ensure
cars can be seen.
It is high time that EV's were made to emit some noise
so they can be heard.
In my village the EV creeps about the narrow lanes like
silent death on wheels.

Unless accelerating most modern cars the engine is barely audible and low speeds and most of the sound comes from tyre/road noise.

I'd be interested to know what you would have them sound like mine makes a spaceship noise when reversing the Mitzi PHEV makes a spaceship noise in forward and reverse.

Granted you'll hear a rattly old Diesel Landy a mile off but most newer cars you'll only hear tyre noise (and that's the same for EV's)
