You can get that in America. You just have a level 3 classification and at that point it needs to be registered and insured. But has full road access.

You absolutely do not need a registration and license for a class 3 ebike in America. Maybe in your local jurisdiction, but that is definitely not the case everywhere. Not in Maryland at least, and we are one of the more heavy-handed regulation states.

Laws changed this year in California.
