alt Hacker NewsWeird, my experience has been that EVs are much quieter and that's a real improvement in densely populated areas. Past a certain speed the main source of noise is the tires and then EVs aren't much better than ICE vehicles (wrt noise).

Im in a super dense area. Speed limit is really low. So tire noise is not that big of a factor and the WOOOOOOO of electric cars is prevalent over others. Obviously comparing apples to apples, a diesel truck is going to be super loud.
