Jalopnik thinks they were dubbed: http://oppositelock.jalopnik.com/why-is-60-minutes-dubbing-m... But I also remember reading somewhere that the ADA was pushing for electric cars to emit noise for deaf and hard hearing pedestrians.

"But I also remember reading somewhere that the ADA was pushing for electric cars to emit noise for deaf and hard hearing pedestrians." I read a similar one except it was regarding blind pedestrians. I'm not sure how a silent vehicle would affect deaf person.

Actually, the film's portrayal of Iron Man/Tony Stark was based on Elon Musk. So yeah.

I really doubt that, as Iron Man is a comic character from the start of 1960 or so.

Since the car is so quiet... I wonder if the noise the car makes on these clips is an overdub.

Am I the only one who got an ad for Chevrolet? Pretty awesome that GM helped pay for the segment. (Also for Viagra... not sure about that one.)
