What assist levels do you usually use on e-road bikes?

It's not for sale in Europe unfortunately and probably never will with the great orange one's new tariff regime and as a US brand I'm not familiar with Ride1UP except on here

Wanna bet it is made in China and a subject to severe U.S. tariffs now?
Name bike/e-bike components manufactured in the U.S.

@Katrina92 have a look at a Specialized Creo 2 before the prices skyrocket. That's all what I'm saying

Pretty much all bikes are made in China or Taiwan with parts also made in places like Vietnam. These tariffs will affect everywhere eventually because of international bounce as most manufacturers will be forced to up prices to compensate for extra expenses. We are all going to take a hit. Plus Europe will be flooded with cheap Chinese bikes/products once destined for the US also putting pressure on main bike brands. I would hate to be a struggling bike brand right now future looking bleak. Expect more bankruptcies and further consolidation medium term. Looking at cars especially EVs Chinese brands seem to be able to take the tariff hit because of Chinese Govt support and a lower base price to start with. With further tariffs what happens is some governments start desperately doing likewise to support local firms. Attempting to lock out foreign companies or at least compete. U.K. talking about doing that this very morning but the knock on for consumers is it's a real mess. Bottom line prices go up and up in the chaos and of course it spirals as recession hits and mass unemployment and then nobody has money in pocket to pay for luxuries like that must have fancy new ebike!!

There are some small, high end part manufacturers in the US, but I don't think its possible to assemble a complete bike from US components. And even those small manufacturers are likely using at least some imported materials. Just for example, China is by far the worlds leader in aluminum production. The story with steel is largely the same. So even if you're, say, Chris King or LH Thomson and manufacture everything in the US, your prices are still going up because raw material prices are going up.
