Answer
Are electric cars quieter but still dangerous in street racing?
Yes. Electric cars may produce less engine noise, but their immediate acceleration can make them just as dangerous in a race or a sudden sprint. In narrow industrial areas in Mallorca, that quick surge can surprise other road users and leave very little time to react.
