Did you know that those sounds made by moving EVs and hybrids are entirely composed and come out speakers? None of it results from the activity of the motors, batteries, etc. It’s kinda obvious if you stop to think about it, because tons of other things in our lives would make weird alien sounds too. Anyway, they all sound similar because of regulatory constraints. I just spoiled this Vox video, but you should still watch it for the whole story.

That blog was turned into a book as well, so if you like this article, maybe check that out too.
