Sounds from the car
Even if your car is very quiet, it is not entirely soundless and can make various noises during normal daily use. This is quite normal and these sounds should not worry you.
Some of the possible sounds which the car can make during use are listed below.
Note
The sounds below are only a guide to help you understand which sounds can normally be heard from the car during operation. This is not a complete list of normal sounds which can be heard from the car, and is not a diagnosis of the car.

Sound from the charging socket when the charging handle is locked with a locking pin
For safety reasons, a mechanical locking pin secures the charging handle during charging. The mechanical locking pin is activated around 3 seconds after the charging handle has been inserted.
Sound from climate control system
The climate control system uses several fans and compressors with varying intensity. Under high load, max defrost or max fan level, the sound is evident even outside the car.
Sound when closing or locking the tailgate without key within range
When you press the 
button on the underside of the tailgate and there is no key for the car within range for locking to occur, three signals sound from the car.
The same sound also occurs if anyone tries to open or close the tailgate without key, using the foot sensor function.

A slight electric motor noise is heard when the car is completely stopped and the mechanical parking brake is engaged.
