I believe most e-bikes in Europe are limited to 25km/h. 32km/h in Canada.
same in australia
I'm in Canada and my e-bike does indeed have a 32km/h limiter. I was a little amused, though, to discover that there is a phone app which can lift this limit, so it appears to only be in software. But I have left it at 32 regardless. I'm perfectly happy with that.
Depends on the country and the type of ebike.
I think it’s safe to assume the post author means level 1 e-bikes. IE those that are unmodified/legal in their jurisdictions and require the rider to pedal for assist.
