So silent around town with only the electric engine running.
Design and All tech stuff is amazing.
I would had ordered the car asap.. BUT there is a noise from the tires or wind when running on the highway.
THe problem is, the noise you hear is always the loudest. In the case of a conventional ICE/Diesel it is the engine noise and this masks the road/wind noise. If you take the engine noise away with a HEV/EV you are left with the road/wind noise. Personally I think this is less intrusive than the clatter of a diesel engine.
