Electric cars have to make noise on purpose because otherwise it would be a silent car. And most of these noises are are weird futuristic WEEEE-00000 UFO sounds. Therefore I posit that we should be able to change the noises our electric cars make

EDIT: These suggestions are Top-Notch! Keep em coming!

    I initially thought that too since there are a lot of fun sci-fi sounds that would work. Ufortunately, some people would probably ruin the fun by using that feature to disable the sound instead.

      It should be you HAVE to choose A noise and it gives options; they’d need to be pre-installed or require a visit to the dealer because it can’t be “silent” noise. And if it’s found, people should ask, “do I need to call the cops? Any mystery drive-bys in the hood?”

        Did you know silence can be detected in software? The volume can be normalized too across frequencies that matter. Requiring the dealer or manufacturer is room for enshittification.
