An idling gas engine may be annoyingly loud, but that’s the price you pay for having WAY less torque available at a standstill.

But the steering rack isn’t even physically connected to the wheels anymore so that sucks
how does that matter if the drive by wire has force feedback.
people argued over fly by wire in planes when it started emerging, how it was taking the safe controllable mechanical link away or whatever, but ultimately it has proven its safety and reliability over mechanical linkages anyway
I’m not disagreeing that it’s better but I just prefer the direct feel of hydraulic steering. It’s the primary reason I drive a 15 year old BMW and refuse to get something newer haha
I’ve tried the new models but the feel just isn’t there
If cars got the same level of maintenance as planes and drivers got the same training as pilots I’d believe that.
Are you sure that’s true for the Taycan?
