Would you buy this electric bike?
Personally, I would be interested if the price were a bit lower. I would never consider an electric as my only vehicle and styling, performance and ease of maintenance is important. This one looks sorta classic... which I like. I'd have to ride one to see if it pushed the right buttons. It's a scrambler style, and I haven't ridden a bike this small in a very long time!
Would be totally useless for me. Even though I'm 72, I still do 800+ mile days. Can't do that on something that needs to be recharged all the time. On vacation, this year, I put 2,248 miles on the Drifter in 6 days, ran the Dragon 6 times in 2 hours.
Fortunately I live in a rural area which is about 2 miles from a built up area. No electric would work as an only vehicle for me. I think technology will improve the range of these things. They will never be a substitute for an ic bike for many reasons.

First of all, that's because of their lack of a v-twin sound! ;)
