An idling gas engine may be annoyingly loud, but that's the price you pay for having WAY less torque available at a standstill.

All EVs come with Level 1 chargers that plug in to your standard house outlet.

Sure, but if you use those it takes a very long time to charge. Like, from empty it can take 40+ hours to charge a battery EV from empty to 80%. If you're using your car to commute and your commute is anywhere near the max range of your car, that isn't a viable option.
