It would be quieter thats for sure but you would lose like 90% of the power and couldnt go fast or anything like that at all. It wouldnt have any torque to tow anything either (if you tow)

I believe Gorilla 1000W Electric ATV's have 4000-5000 lb towing capacity,
electric motors are great for towing and torque,
Airports use electric vehicles to tow airplanes,
also electric vehicles are common in industrial applications,
only problem in the past was getting them small enough and cheap enough,
looks like we are reaching that point,
