"Most of the commercial E-Bike uses 250W or 350W motors, because that’s what the European specs are. While that amount of power is able to achieve 20MPH range, it does take its time to get there. In the US, with the open roads, that’s simply not enough power to keep up with traffic. Quite frankly, they still feel like a plain bicycle and it’s a bit boring to ride. Higher adoption require more power."
As I understand it, the EU standard says there's supposed to be no power assist past 25km, which is about 16mh. That is, for e-bikes which don't require a license.
I agree. If you want a more powerful e-bike, you should have a license.
