    I drive a chevrolet bolt and I can definitely hear the motor when I’m accelerating fast. Honestly I think a loud electric motor sounds way cooler than a gas engine, especially when you think about the fact that the noise is coming out of something the size of a coffee can thats having 150 thousand watts dumped into it.

      IDK how many HP yours have, ours is pretty modest by EV standards with only 204 HP, and I can’t really say for sure that I can hear the engine.
      But we did by a car that has very good sound proofing, but we can still hear the tires clearly. Still the quiet of the car makes it feel like a luxury car IMO. 👍 😎
