I really dislike this trend of adding sounds to electric cars.<p>One of the things I liked the most about the electric car I used to drive was the quiet, and I would have hated if it made some fake sound as I drove around.<p>Once any car is moving, there are plenty of other sounds, such as gear-whine, tire noise, etc, to be audible to any pedestrians. And if the car is going so slowly that there's no sound at all, then there's plenty of time for a driver to stop if they see someone entering the street.
