An odd one I found out. There are some people who when sitting in the front passenger seat will get carsick and vomit. It doesn’t seem to happen to the driver, and is unknown if those in the back seats will get hit by it.

Before I looked this up, for the first time I rode in an EV in the passenger seat. A clear, bright day on a smooth road. Then about half an hour into the trip, blaagh.

Just look up “carsick in EV”. Lots of references.

It's attributable to the generally higher accelerations of EVs.

The driver depresses the accelerator, and so is subconsciously "braced" for the high acceleration - and thus less subject to nausea.

[...] and is unknown if those in the back seats will get hit by it.

If they are quick, they should be able to avoid the stream of vomitus coming at them from the occupant of the front passenger seat.
