I'm wondering about the long-term effects of electric motor 'whine' on the human ear.
I've driven a LEAF daily for 6.5 years, and will add a Tesla imminently.
I'm now 46, and have noticed hearing loss the past few years particularly in crowded places (can't discern your voice from the background noise).
The loss could very well be purely from aging. But wondering if anyone has knowledge of the (potential) effects of exposing the human ear to the electric motor 'whine' of the EVs we know and love.
Thanks.
