I have a Mariner hybrid, and it’s so cool moving along with no sound.
When you pull up at alight and you sit there for several minutes, and your car is off and everyone else is sitting there burning gas, it puts a smile on your face.
I have enjoyed the sounds of great engines in my vehicles of the past. Today I don’t need it anymore. If people do, I have not problem with it.
I test drove an Audi A6 that was perfectly quiet, and the engine automatically stopped and started at stoplights (no perseptive change to the driver). It was not a hybrid.

A Ram 1500 with a Hemi will do that too while towing a 25’ boat! A lot of cars have engines that shut off at stop lights now.

I rented a Hybrid last year. I was sitting at a light and a big dump truck came up behind me just before the light changed. It freaked me out until the engine kicked in. I thought I was going to be rear ended. After I got used to it, it was okay.
...you're probably in a Chevy Volt.
