The proposed extension did not pass, but that didn't stop salespeople from stating otherwise regarding a credit.

Let's also understand ebike vs two-wheeled electric vehicle has specifications:
A qualified 2-wheeled plug-in electric vehicle is a new vehicle with two wheels that:
- Is capable of achieving a speed of 45 miles per hour or greater;
- is propelled to a significant extent by an electric motor which draws electricity from a battery which:
- (i) has a capacity of not less than 2.5 kilowatt hours, and
- (ii) is capable of being recharged from an external source of electricity; and
- has a gross vehicle weight rating of less than 14,000 pounds.
Because there is a Manufacturer listing there, as well.
Manufacturers of the 2-wheeled vehicles listed below have provided appropriate information and have received acknowledgement from the Service of the vehicle’s eligibility for the credit. They have also provided written consent allowing the Service to disclose their vehicle on this web page.
From: https://www.cyclevolta.com/understanding-e-bike-power-range-and-energy/
"One kilowatt is defined to be about 1.34 hp. You can just as readily say a small motorcycle with 10 hp has about 7 kilowatts.
But when it comes to eBikes, a kilowatt, a full 1,000 watts, is often just too big a unit. Instead, eBikes are generally rated in unprefixed watts, with power ranging from 250 to about 900 watts."
