It could be a pedal bearing. Most times I get that tick...tick...tick... on every revolution it's the pedal bearings. It can happen with even the best pedals. Next I would look to the bottom bracket bearings. These ticks can happen due to dirt, lack of lubrication or incorrect torque applied to the bearings.

When my bike arrived, the front derailleur cable extended past the clamping screw so that it touched the right crank arm every time it passed through the top of its rotation.
In my case, I wrapped the cable around the clamping screw so that it would not touch the crank arm.

No, not likely worn out. If it's a pedal bearing, the click can come and go, as often it's dirt that will work it's way out with a good washing and some riding. It is a serviceable item though and noise often means maintenance is required (clean & lube), with any bearing noise. Bearings on bikes will tell you "click" when they want attention. Given your bike is new, it may be covered under warranty.
Hub motors can also get a little noisy in dry, dusty, dirty environments, but that's not what we're talking about here.
Hope you got it sorted out.

I had the same problem and found the same solution.
