There's a noise it must make? I haven't heard of this.

Yes, it's for the safety of people that have vision problems and just pedestrians in general. You can hear a combustion engine no problem but an electric one is nearly silent. Some car companies add a speaker in the front to make engine noises.

My Bolt only has chimes when I leave my driver door open; but those are internal chimes.

No reverse sounds either; backup camera activates with overhead view.

It does beep at me if I forget my keys in the car though
