Yes... They are wildly different...
...And the drive setups fit well in gas cars.
Engines, transmissions, and fuel tanks take up a lot of room. People have been mounting electric motors in cars and stuffing them with batteries for decades.
Some people even leave the whole subframe from a Tesla complete and mount it directly under a car. Obviously different cars are able to accept different solutions.
Recall that we are not talking about EV cars but converting gas cars to EV.
