  Hyundai is making an Ioniq 5 N, that can simulate gears and gearchanges so people can still feel like vroooom, vroooooom. You can’t make that up.

    That’s slightly less offensive IMO, than the fact that if you turned the speaker off on a modern Mustang or Corvette, they’d be as quiet as a Prius. This means they could have put the speaker on the EV versions they just released, but they didn’t. There’s something wrong about a silent Mustang or Corvette.

      As a resident in a nice, hilly area: Not really. Traffic can’t become silent quickly enough.

      Isn’t that a law in EU for pedes safety?

        It’s not the same noise. Law is just a zoom or whatever at low speeds. The speaker is artificial engine noise and stuff

    Toyota is working on a fake manual too. As a manual enthusiast… I think it’s just dumb.
