Såg när jag googlade på elcykelpremie ett "reglemente" de har sammanställt inom EU med riktlinjer och klassificeringar och övrigt. Om man orkar läsa, bara skriv något namn/email i rutorna så kan du ladda ner dokumentet:

Jag kopierade ut texten här ang eMTB, de behöver visst inte typgodkännas:
[...]
Electric bikes used for competition, electric mountain
bikes, pedelecs 25 km/h – 250 W and electric recumbent cycles with a seat
height below the specified limits are not in the type-approval.
[...]
Electric recumbent bikes with their seat height under a set limit are
excluded both from both type-approval and from EN 15194. Consequently,
to date there are no technical regulations in Europe for this type of vehicle.
The same applies to electric bicycles for competition and for electric
mountain bikes. The only obligation that rests on the manufacturer of these
vehicles is to comply with the GPSD, Machinery, EMC and RoHS Directive
(see below).

As explained above, certain categories of electric cycles, i.e. pedelecs 25
km/h – 250 W, electric mountain bikes, electric competition bikes, certain
electric recumbent bikes are excluded from the type-approval. For pedelecs
25 km/h – 250 W, CEN has developed the standard EN 15194 but in most
member states there is no legal obligation to comply with the standard.

Article 2 of Directive 2006/42/EC on Machinery stipulates that vehicles
which are subject to type-approval are excluded from the Machinery
Directive. This implies that electric cycles which are not subject to typeapproval
are included in the Machinery Directive. This is the case for 25
km/h – 250 pedelecs, electric mountain bikes, electric competition bikes
and certain recumbent bikes.

Så om man köper en Biltema speedbike hamnar man i detta kluster av riktlinjer som ska uppfyllas, märkplåt, försäkring osv osv
