There is at least one practical reason for implementing such a sound, as long as it's heard outside the e-vehicle... and that's so blind people don't get nailed while crossing the street! I'm being 100% serious. When vehicles make no sound whatsoever, it's pretty dangerous for anyone who needs to rely on their hearing for safety while out and about.

I have to remind myself that if I do click on it, it's going to be like 90% pictures of male buttox.
Anyway, that electric charger looks awesome, if it actually is released in the same design as it's shown. I do not have high hopes for it. But if such a car was actually released like that, I would definitely be interested. Though now that I'm in my 40s, more and more I'm thinking I just want utility. But I'm not ready for a minivan, when that happens... I need someone to put me down.

I would totally buy one of those, but I can't eat that stuff. My cholesterol is good, but the doctor said my triglycerides (did I spell that right) are a little high... meaning I need to cut back a little bit on fatty foods. I hate getting old. I remember when I was 18 and I ran 9 miles a day, and could eat three double-quarter pounder meals in one sitting, with the fries... and THEN go home and eat whatever my mom was making for dinner, and still not gain a single pound.

OMG... I think a bit of canned engine noise would be a whole lot more preferable to all that racket!
