Hands on test drive of the EV that changes everything? It sounds and acts like a ICE car, the first in the world that tricks a drivers mind into believing they are driving a ICE car.

Why care?

I thought when you install a solar system and your talking about installing a 10kWh of battery back-up, a EV, 2 way charging, 87kWh battery storage, V2L, V2H, AC vs DC " Micro Inversion Inversion" are points of conversation, especially when this car proves you don't need to burn dinosaurs to have fun.  That's why I care.  All good, nice forum. I love it, I'll leave you alone ;)

Cheers

You can care and enjoy that sort of stuff, that's great, but don't be surprised when others don't get so excited over a bit of software that makes an EV sound and feel like an ICE car. I don't see how it "changes everything".
As an EV owner, I don't want my EV to sound louder or jerk as if it's changing gear or whatever. I specifically bought an EV because I like the silence, I like the smooth instant acceleration. If I want an ICE car experience I'll buy an ICE car.
