People get motion sick in EVs because they are heavy and the suspension has a hard time damping. It has nothing to do with “ICE feedback”. It’s the same effect as seasickness.
Annectodal, but whatever acceleration curve Toyota uses in its hybrids makes me sick so quickly. I haven’t had many problems in Chevy PHEVs or EVs, teslas, or Kia EVs, but I do often get motion sick in ICE vehicles. Not as badly as Toyota hybrids though.
I’m not sure how much mass they have, but they have a full ICE engine plus batteries. It could just be an issue with how much it weighs and the suspension. I somewhat doubt it’s the acceleration curves alone, but I don’t know. If it doesn’t happen in other vehicles, it seems odd that it’d be that specific curve that’s the issue.
I’ve heard of some people feeling motion sick without the same feedback as an ICE vehicle. Could be helpful for them.

might just be their suspension setup on the hybrids
I remember when I test drove a fourth gen Outback and it felt worse than a van. that was enough to prove they had killed the wagon for good
