Obviously I can't tell without listening myself but a standard feature of all gear trains is designed in backlash which reduces wear and noise but it does mean there is a small amount of free motion between power on and the over-run. In and EV where the motor runs much faster than an IC engine even if there is only a single speed transmission taking up this backlash may be more noticeable and audible on an EV than an ICE car.
So in summary it may not be a fault, just normal engineering being unfamiliar on an EV.
