https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/model3/en_cn/GUID-5D8F5B42-90F9-4ED7-9B36-A54BFED1030C.html

The Pedestrian Warning System (if equipped) causes Model 3 to emit sound when driving below 24 km/h (15 mph) or while driving in reverse. Electric vehicles operate quietly and this sound helps to alert pedestrians of your oncoming vehicle. The sound, which activates whenever the setting is turned on (if equipped) and Model 3 is shifted out of Park, gets louder as speed increases.

A few hybrids also do something like this when running on the battery (like when backing out or slowing moving).

This reminds me of that episode of Weeds where the gangbanger buys all his boys Priuses so they can perform drive-bys without alerting the target

Weird. I've had a model 3 for awhile now and had no clue about this. Sounds terrible. Not sure why anybody would turn it on. The car being so quiet is one of the major perks.

While this isn't Tesla directly there's some that make so little noise that had to add it in.

They added a new boombox feature to newer cars so that a customizable pedestrian warning sound is heard.

Mine doesn't have that, though. I bought mine shortly before they started adding the external speaker to the S.

I have a 2022 CR-V Hybrid, and it makes this loud angelic hum when I put the car in reverse. Something about a law passing in 2019 or 2020 that requires electric vehicles to make sounds. My complaint is the sound is sooo loud. Like MUCH louder than a non electric car.

Some of the high end electric cars make some wild ass sounds. The Mercedes EQS sounds like a pod racer when youre accelerating.
