If I decide to buy a conventional ICE car for a set amount of money, say 40K for the sake of argument, I'll have a wide variety of options available based on body styles and drivetrains. So an SUV with either a manual or automatic gearbox, diesel or petrol with varying capacities.

When it comes to EV vehicles there can be the same range of body styles, but are there significant difference in the drivetrains between EV cars? Do batteries and electric motors vary much between manufactures?
