tl;dw:

EVTOL can be 4x-8x quieter than helicopters, but not 100x quieter as some marketing claims

That's still enough to get closer to the destination than a helicopter can or run more flights to the same place.

Independent measurements show that EVTOLs made by startups today are 2x to 4x quieter than helicopters when hovering
