But that would be like a Mitchell's Plain Tazz sounding like a Ferrari, there is a limit to fake. Quietness is the one advantage of E-vehicles.
I have to agree. I’ve often ridden through areas where I wished the engine was silent because it scared the wildlife away.
On the other hand, there was talk in the UK to introduce legislation that electric and hybrid cars should have some noisemaking device especially around town after too many pedestrians were hit in parking lots. Apparently they are too quiet at low speeds so people don’t here the car...
Even a problem with new gen diesel/petrol engine.... was watching my wife stroll towards me in the road of a hospital parking lot just this week with a spanking new Land Cruiser patiently following her waiting for her to move over.... she eventually jumped out the way when I could get her in earshot as no manner of gesticulation could get her to look over her shoulder to notice the V8 Cruiser tailing her.... 
sounds like some boertjie was checking your wifes rear....
eps 1 to 8 is available as Torrents, its really nice viewing.
Question, why cant they take extra batteries with? 10 extra batteries would still weigh less than that generator on a truck. I dont see why batteries cant be hot-swoppable,
Very impressive reliability from all the vehicles though, them being prototypes and the amount of mods that went into those livewires. Pity some update spoiled it.
There is an interview where it was explained that some Pan America suspension bits was fitted, but I would have expected more, the suspensions dont look that good. Looks like a fairly harsh ride.
Quite a few times I was thinking I would have had a blast with a normal litre class adventure bike in the area though, not driving slow to conserve battery
