The way I understand it, they're a lot better nowadays. Even switched to EFI a few years back. I anticipate getting one of these if they ever bring it to fruition: https://www.imz-ural.com/electric https://www.imz-ural.com/electric I saw that "concept" at the Long Beach bike show a few years. It's literally the guts of a Zero bolted into an Ural frame. At least one of the things that I personally find exciting is the idea of having a huge stack of batteries in the sidecar. Would be great for both capacity, and handling when you don't have a passenger. You could even add a teslaesque "ludicrous" mode and not worry about running out of battery.
