Electric motors have a wider rpm operating range than gas, but they still get limited at lower speeds so gears are often needed. Of course there are several different ways to wind a motor with different trade offs, but in general you want a few gears.
You’re not gaining a lot for the increased weight and added complexity and decreased reliability for having a gearbox, you’ll just end up with two gears and still no ability to manually shift.
They are electric. Why the heck would they need a clutch??
