I'm certainly not ditching my 12kg Lapierre MTB in favor of a car, it certainly has a different sense of fun than simply pushing a gas pedal, lol.
I see people talking about transmissions on ICE lacking. While this is true for older cars with 5-speed transmissions, it actually doesn't carry too much truth for the cars this forum is about. Like if you were to watch the speedometer and tachometer concurrently in a 3.3T while accelerating, it doesn't stall in speed at all. It keeps going at throttle, even while shifting up. This is because the gearbox has pretty low times during the gear changes. Like it actually swaps the gears but the tachometer makes you think it's taking longer.
However, ideally in an EV you do all the speed in a single gear. This is great especially for cruising at lower speeds, if an EV passes you by on the street, it wouldn't have the sound notes of an ICE. It goes like a moped, but they're adding fake noises to make pedestrians be aware of the vehicle. Of course, the worst part of the ICE is the smell. If your vehicle sits in a closed garage with other cars, this becomes a bigger problem. You don't want to smell carbon monoxide for long as you can die from being poisoned out of the blue.
