EVELO is the brand we ride.
There are many more brands and styles to select form in the US these days.
We take them everywhere. They are trail E-bikes which let you ride all trails.
They are a bit heavy, need to consider an E-Bike, bike rack. They have about a 40 to 50 mile range before the need to recharge the battery.

We looked at those before ordering the RAD's. The EVELO at $2000-$4000 We were consodering the Quest one are very expensive especially since they only have 250w motors (most other brands 500w-750w). Also the RAD has 750w with a 14-AH battery vs the EVELO at only 250W 10-AH (Both RAD and EVELO use Samsung Batteries). The Rad also has 7 gears/speed so it is geared more like a typical bike. We ride ours like a typical bike so the multiple gears are very important and only use the battery for hills or assist. I do like the belt drive on the EVELO although that is what is limiting it to a single gear
There is a lot to consider when comparing the newer Ebikes
Wired and Bicycle.com both had the RAD as the #1 Ebike for 2019
