Can't be too long a time. Many current ICE models shut down their engines every time their car comes to a stop. Even at a traffic light. Motor starts right back up when the throttle is pressed.
Most owners hate that "feature"
I rented a car with that once. Absolutely hated it because there was even a greater delay than an idling engine when you want to pull out into traffic. Felt dangerous and was worried about it instantly stalling. Was certainly glad to get back into my Tesla.
