My Rivian R1T has four electric motors. I've never seen them. I'd probably be amazed at their size. I've always enjoyed the silence of EV's in general. The noise Rivians make has been described by some as "geary". I thought that was overblown. Yesterday morning the radio was off and at 70 mph they seemed very loud and high pitched. I've never noticed that before. Electric motors start out very quiet and get louder as the speed increases. That's normal. Are my motors getting louder for some reason? Are the motors louder at low temperatures? Was it just me? I'm wondering how many people have noticed excessive motor noise.
