Usually they will have a somewhat narrower range of gears, and larger steps between the gear ratios.

Clicking gears on new Electra Townie 8i

Alfine 11-speed - what is needed to install it? What are common problems when installing?
With the bike linked, I don't think this hub can be fitted properly.
It requires a method to adjust the chain tension, and this frame has neither the eccentric bottom bracket recommended, nor a hori …
