What if? & would you? electic cars.

OK, we laugh about some guys who has the audacity to install the "pizz-piss" sound on their NA cars, (a lot of small compact cars)

In the coming future, where hybrids & electrics cars may be the only available cars in the planet & a high chance that they will be as silent as a home electric toaster.
The glorious engine sounds of a V6, V8 or your treasured straight-piped booming after-market exhaust will no longer be there as all cars are as electric as your digital appliances.

the only way to "hear" the glorious thunder of yesteryear cars are probably fitting speakers that will emit those booming "vrrroooom"

Question is would you in the future?....install...pizz-piss? on your car?

future sports cars could be a lot closer then we think. & we all know the technology will filter down to saloon cars eventually in maybe next 15-20years?

it would just be riding a roller coster - all the acceleration without engine noise , lets buy oil reserves let say 100 barrels or so for the future . lol

quick go and buy voice recorder and record my car sound engine for my grandchildren listen.... mayb by that time, they dont even know what is combustion engine... hahahaha....

I see a bright future in electric powered engines, it the onli way to go . Can't wait for these electric car and motorcycles

But i wonder how for those who r very bz. Even few mins of pumping petrol also no time sometimes.
This 1 mus charge few hours somemore.

N the tuning process of the car will be completely different i guess. Or mayb cant be tune anymore.. I know that car produces 248hp according to specs anyway.

electric powered engine means no more manual clutch-gearstick tranny....

I see a lot of potential in electric cars... they can drag faster than conventional petrol-driven cars. The whine from the electric motors spinning at higher revolutions is very 'orgasmic'.

Give it another 10 years or so... soon, even oil barons will drive electric cars. Who knows, perhaps oil may drop to as low as USD 1 per barrel.

acbc : that time petrolheads would source W16 engines lol

aside from how fast u can go,
just imagine this,
an engine tat has virtually zero backtorque,
totally super smooth,
super responsive,
veli little vibration.
The power delivery surely much much more refined than the old internal combustion engine .
It will surely make one hell of a race engine, totally super smooth and control in the corners . :shocked:

i dont think i can live without the soundtrack a v8 or a v12 creates...sorry..i am not for electric cars..
i think i would be dead by the time petrol finishes....until then...i am petrolhead..
