I don't know about anyone else, but I was expecting silence.

I couldn't determine whether it was the hybrid system or Hill's normal whining that I could hear!

Seriously, the sound was from inside a fairly bare metal box so sound would be amplified and doesn't reflect what it would sound like from outside. I remember watching EV saloons racing on the TV some time ago, and apart from a lot of tyre screeching, the rest of the sounds of the car was exactly pleasing to the ear. But then I'm biased towards ICE motors.
