Does anyone feel that Electric cars do not give you the same feel/Roar that combustion cars do? In Electric cars you only hear the sound of the motors, but in combustion engines you get a different roar.

Indeed I would agree on this one. It is very different when you can hear the roar or humming of the engine as it runs. Also you feel its power too. Quite different when a hybrid car is running on electric.

yes, internal combustion engines will soon die out and be replaced with Hydrogen or electric cars... our children and grand children will not be able to experience the same things that we have. Mayb transportation will become so much more different than we expect. Mayb MONORAILS wahahaha

one day we will be looking back at dirty old petrol engines as a barbaric thing. to start with the electric car is not giving you the same spead, but that will change over time. me personally I get wet hands from fast driving...but then that's personal.
for the sound you can listen to loud music instead. anyhow, I think that most people will opt for GPS controlled cars where you won't even have to do the driving anymore, u just program the destination. anyhow, I guess for guys like you Audi will invent some super y hydrogene fuel car with a clean raoring, but it will cost ya...

Some electric car manufacturers are adding internal combustion engine sounds to their cars. So you can be driving your quiet Tesla, but hear the roaring sound of a V8...

I love it, the sound of the engine added. I have to agree with tecshift, most people I know have the radio on so they can't hear the engine anyway.
I think we would all be driving cars running on electricity, chip fat oil or possibly even water if there was not so much money tied up in the petrol car.
