Also, the idea of not smelling exhaust, especially those that cut their cats out, and less car engine and exhaust noise will make downtown areas of major cities more pleasant.
I hate to say but I’m down with this. I had a Taycan CT last summer on a trip and it was marvelous. My m8 and m3 are pretty loud and I’m growing tired of the noise. The silence and ambient spaceship sound of the taycan is nice. I don’t need to have everyone hear my car coming down the street. Not even sure what the point of all that is. And if I want car sounds I just listen to the asd in the cabin. Doesn’t bother anyone else and still sounds cool.
