I love my Yamaha gas cart and just don’t see me ever making a switch. I don’t mind any noise either, but that’s just me as I love the big engine sound of a fast boat or Harley motorcycle.
The electric carts have the same sort of thing for showing remaining miles that your gas Yamaha has... or at least some gas Yamahas have. My gas Yamaha does not have a gas gauge in the dash and the one in the tank hasn't worked for years.

Gas cart: Keep the tank more than half full and you won't run out of fuel
Lithium cart: Plug it in every night and the vast majority of us won't run out of fuel
Lead acid: No experience, no idea
