Electric vehicles are designed to deliver a quieter, more refined ride, yet some passengers report experiencing motion sickness despite the absence of engine vibrations. Researchers suggest the issue may stem from the instant torque delivery in EVs, which can create abrupt acceleration patterns unlike traditional combustion engines.

Studies are now exploring how these unique driving dynamics affect passenger well-being compared to conventional vehicles.
