Wonder how long it'll take until there is some artificial IC engine sounds plumbed in to videos like these, Maybe I'm being a little cynical. Amazing technical exercise, But does it get me excited, errrr...

Most Pistonheads stereotypes in three sentences I've ever seen. Impressive.

Sorry I wasn't aware there was an 'PC' moderator on board.
Is inappropriate to make a comment on something you don't like, despite it being only "three sentences"?

I absolutely can't raise any enjoyment for full electric cars. They suck imho.

Noise cancelling sound plumbed in to silence that drivetrain would be a good start.

It just doesn't raise any excitement to me,
Regardless whether or not electric motors are the future they just don't stir the soul like an ice powered vehicle, remember those days as a kid replicating engine noises and dreaming of those cars to own, just doesn't hit the same gooey part for me, just As I always wanted a petrol rc car
Over a Battery version, even now those brushless rc cars are crazy fast now I'd still take a petrol one to tinker with every time
