New electric vehicles will have to feature a noise-emitting device, under an EU rule coming into force on Monday. All new types of four-wheel electric vehicle must be fitted with the device, which sounds like a traditional engine. Alternatively-fuelled vehicles made up 6.6% of the new car market in May, compared with 5.6% during the same month in 2018.
