With Honda Clarity and Toyota Mirai. Imagine a Prius with a very slow charger built in. No fun at all, for twice the price. Mind you I haven’t driven the 2021 yet.

A friend of mine sent me this short video when I drove back home... More to come when I have the opportunity. Best, Nicolas ...

Beautiful engine sound !

Nice sound.

 
 By: bimbeano : February 5th, 2021-10:57
Just as i’m beginning to like the sound of turbocars more and more we will have to go electric soon. So i expect i will like the sound of electric cars in a couple of years from now 😂.

Much if not most of the sounds today are "faked" anyway

 
 By: cazalea : February 5th, 2021-11:05
Enhanced, tuned, supplemented, by the manufacturer to begin with ... giving the driver a "boy racer" experience at the press of a button, or by default. I don't mind that my electric cars are more or less silent. Cheers, Mike

Not faked but enhanced.

 
 By: bimbeano : February 5th, 2021-12:12
Faked would be IMO extra sound thru the speakers, i believe my Megane has such a system ... altough it sounds great from the outside , enhanced offcourse 😁.

I see!

 
 By: amanico : February 5th, 2021-13:38

Actually there are 3 different types of sound IMO

 
 By: bimbeano : February 5th, 2021-12:18
1. Pure sound like my 1988 Peugeot 205 ... offcourse you could say Peugeot put on an exhaust with a 45 mm tube instead of a 43 mm tube without any power gain ... we will never know 🤣. 2. Nowadays sportscars like the A110 and all Porsches Ferraris etc ... ... 

You forgot sounds 4-12

 
 By: cazalea : February 5th, 2021-13:00
That's all the noises the car makes outside of the powertrain --- squeaking of the bushings, clunking of the suspension scraping of the tires on the wheel wells squealing of the brakes whirring of the bad bearings in the alternator screeching of the air c...  

LOL

 
 By: bimbeano : February 5th, 2021-16:01
My 205 makes noises i don’t even want to comprehend. My Clio’s exhaust makes more different types of noises any sound engineer can come up with, especially since we upped the rev limiter and probably some joints started to tear up and inner parts of the r... 

There are some noises I love a lot...

Hydrogen is the future! ;)

A fuel cel generating electricity powering an electric motor ?

No. :)))

That’s one method

But remember about 10 years ago when BMW produced a 7 series that could run on either petrol or hydrogen (there was a robotic hydrogen filling station in Southern California around Oxnard, if I recall correctly). It was not optimized for either, so had re... 

Interesting!

How wonderful! Absolutely sub zero cool.

I'm so happy for you and a little jealous, too! I was also pleased to see the Alpine A110's win the RGT class on the recent Monte Carlo Rally. I would have loved to see it, but alas not this year. Enjoy it with every fiber of your being! Kent

I missed your post til today - it is very tasteful!

 
 By: penfriend : February 10th, 2021-05:39
Great color with perfect rims - to me the best variation I have seen of the Alpine. Congratulations and have always a safe ride and enough space between you and other objects.

Wow, congrats Nico. I had not seen this before today.

 
 By: andyhud : February 10th, 2021-08:35
That will provide joy for many years to come.

Congratulations on your beautiful new car, Nico
