ICE either starts up with enough voltage, or doesn’t spin/start up at all due to low voltage and/or if HV is in a protected mode. You will never feel it like a car w/a starter trying to turn over. One of the signs you’re out of or running out of gas is when your fuel indicator gets to the reserve level.
