How late are We talkin'? I did traded pre-owned vehicles up until just over a year ago. Couldn't tell You the latest MY of those 2 models I've driven, the point was Hy & Kia have been doing it for a few years already, & the EV/Hybrids make that "motor-whine" sound as a safety feature. I'll be honest, My fascination with new vehicles left a long time ago. Except for new engine tech, I try to remain happily oblivious to all the ball-massaging gingerbread laden stuff, only what I had to diag./service crossed My radar.
