The experience between the two is certainly different enough that I hope I never have to go back to driving an ICE vehicle. I never struggle to climb a hill or merge from an on ramp in my EV. I don’t have to get regular oil changes or brake service. And I love plugging in at home rather than having to drop $30 or more at a gas station every week.
We took a windy road recently with the kids, meaning seriously windy — even the driver would sometimes get queasy in the past — and while I admittedly took it easy, we were all completely fine. My husband postulated that it was because there was no up and downshifting. It certainly was remarkably smoother in the EV but I was still astonished that none of us felt even a little bit yucky.

Also the weight of the battery gives it a low center of gravity
For a moment, I was wondering how strong the wind must blow to induce queasiness.
