This is a mid-drive ebike, which is preferable since the motor drives the pedals, and has the advantage that the motor power uses the gearing on the bike. Because the motor is in the low centre of the bike, it is a lot more balanced and stable. The other kind of bike that can move the bike without pedaling usually has a heavy motor on the wheels, and because it doesn't have gearing, it's less efficient when you are going up hills.
This kind of bike is meant more for the person who still wants exercise but wants to cover more distance with any given effort, not the person who wants the bike to do all the work for him,
