And what is it? Always assumed it was just water but now I'm pretty sure it's not. Also do all cars do this?

This is normal, and all cars actually do it.

In 99% of cases, water from your car exhaust system is absolutely normal and is nothing to worry about. It is just condensation being vented while the engine is running. You’re most likely to notice this when the outside temperature is cold and when the engine has not been running all that long.

    I don't think EVs do it

    Edit: downvotes from people who completely lack a sense of humor

    This thread is on no stupid questions. Why go out of your way to be rude/smart ass?

    You're projecting quite a bit onto me. Maybe you should take the day off.

    Your edit speaks volumes. I didn't down vote that one btw. It was fine enough. I was playing stupid to continue what I thought was joke.

    And that's why you started acting like a jerk?

    The question wasn't directed at you. The question is uninteresting for anyone but them to answer. It is obvious where I became rude.

    What purpose does

    "They don’t, hence my comment."

    serve in this conversation?

    I'm not the other commenter.

    It serves as clarification.

    They made a joke, playing with the fact EVs don't have exhaust. You replied you didn't know they had exhaust. They clarified that they do not.

    That seems very ear to me?

    "I’m not the other commenter."

    Thanks, I had no idea!

    "They don't, hence my comment."

    It can easily be rephrased into "They don't." That is the clarification. But there is a second part. What purpose does that part serve?
