EVs have special low noise tires with a foam liner. Also, you have misophonia.
Thank you for your diagnosis Dr SaveTheTuaHawk, rest assured I'll give it exactly the amount of weight it deserves.
I'm pretty sure most people find irregularly spaced high-pitched buzzing noises unpleasant; smoke detectors don't play lullabies for a reason.
The lack of engine noise making every road sound and creak from the car audible is a common complaint. Just because EVs are superior, doesn't make them perfect.
