Damn.. Okay EVs are too quiet, let's add a speaker with some sound.

Well just like new EVs in the EU need to make some noise, this will help solve a genuine safety issue. Quiet cars moving sometimes fairly quickly, with lots of people wandering around with lots of distractions, is an accident waiting to happen.
My guess is that there’s been a few close calls over the last few events which is why this has been raised.
