    this was first start of the day with around 10celsius ambient

    first ofcourse the brake pomp noise
    the inverter noise
    then the ICE start ( seems to be a little ruff? )
    and warm in a real fast time thx to exhaust heat recovery
    then again ICE shutdown and inverter noise
    and finally shutdown car again ;-)

    I wouldn't think they would know. But you never know.
