Video of the car running is up.
My observations:
Got the very low pitch 5.0L V8 rumble like the ISF, Mustang GT and the M156 NA 6.2L AMG V8.
No supercharger whine.
No turbo hissing or vacuum cleaner sound. Exhaust sounds open so no turbo in the way.
It got a hint of air suspension bounce, but it is not very noticeable. Very little body roll or pitch.
Is too far away to hear any electric motor whine.
Is hard to believe a motor sounds like that would rev to 9k, all motor that rev to 9k got a very high pitch exhaust tone. Also it does not sounds like it rev high at all, unless they are short shifting. But looks like they are hot lapping........people don't short shift in a hot lap. Maybe that 9k rpm on that spec sheet is a typo?
