My 1994 Ford Probe was so quiet you couldn’t tell it was running most of the time even standing next to it, and there are plenty of ICE cars around today with even smaller and quieter engines. Most people learn to look both ways before crossing the street when they’re toddlers.

My car is so quiet I have to rev it to double check if I’ve started it sometimes.
