An idling gas engine may be annoyingly loud, but that's the price you pay for having WAY less torque available at a standstill.

I dunno, I’m “team electric is objectively better in every way” but I gotta agree, a fancy tuned racecar engine sounds like angry beast and that’s pretty sexy.

The jolt of max acceleration of an electric motor in complete silence is also extremely sexy, though.

I don’t care much about cars overall but I do like angry beasts…
