Fwiw you wouldn't ride around town at 3kw, that would be ridiculous and dangerous. The default power level is "1" (out of 5) which assists with around 180-250w.

Fun trail bike though (helpful on the uphills, for someone who doesn't typically enjoy that part).

In BC, Canada, there is a maximum motor power limit of 500W for e-bikes. I am not sure if switching (or locking?) the e-bike to power assist level 1 would qualify.
