Could you give us less info?
I have this (though done slightly differently as I am upgrading some stuff) so you know since no info given I might as well go for the near the top if not the top depending on who you ask):

It's difficult to make a decent suggestion when there are no parameters given.
What is your budget?
What kind of riding do you plan on doing?
Any physical limitation to bike fit or operation?
Bicycle operating terrain, traffic pattern, skill level?
Storage (when bike is not in use) is limited?
Transporting this e-bike to your ride starting point or just ride it from your residence?
Long term cycling goals? replace car? physically fit to ride everyday for good distance?
All these answers can help determine better suggestion to an e-bike that suit you.

cat, good start, also, are you handy with tools, do you need to carry it up flights of stairs, can you charge at work if used for commute etc, etc, etc I tried to have a sticky for this to allow individuals to just answer some questions before embarking, but was rebuffed by an erstwhile mod (AIR).
