I have experience servicing these Yamahas and they are excellent bikes with a few minor issues. First and foremost, they run Yamaha motors, which means you're going to need a Yamaha dealer if something goes awry there. I have not yet run into any motor issues in my experience with these, but note that Yamaha dealers are few and far between in some areas.
Another issue is that geometry on these is a little funky. The road and hybrid bikes are built off the same frame that is sized small, medium, and large, but really fits more like medium, medium-large, and real big. Measure out your current ride and verify that it'll fit you before you hit 'order.' I haven't had luck getting people much smaller than 5' 4" on the small size.
The final issue is that they run their own proprietary rear derailleur hanger on many of the frames, which makes a basic repair (rear der hanger replacement) a bit frustrating, as you have to track down the right part from, again, a Yamaha dealer. If you grab one of these bikes, order a couple of spare hangers at the same time, if possible, and make your future repair needs that much easier.
Otherwise, like I said above, bonkers deals.
Regarding the drop bar vs flat bar for the road bikes, looking at the geometry tables, I notice the stack height is pretty low, at least in the largest size. That would make using the drops rather uncomfortable for me. Also, the longer width of the flat bar will provide more stability compared to narrow drop bars, which is something to really consider for a bike that can sustain 28 mph. Just something to think about.

I put in for a 175lbs person on this 50lb bike going 15mph off-road on level terrain. It estimates it would take 257 watts of total power to go that speed.
If you reduce the bike to 25lbs, it goes down to 237.5 watts. that's just a difference of 20 watts to carry an extra 25 pounds of weight.
It's not nothing for humans since we get tired, but that's pretty minimal for a motor.
I'm 6' just under 300lbs and the cheap 350w class II I have as a junk, not too worried about being stolen, ebike gets me up to 21-22 (supposed to be 20) mph throttle only in about 3sec flat ground and pedaling uphill on dirt is super, super easy in lightest pedal assist and gets easier the more assist.
A mid drive Yamaha or brose or Bosch etc at 250w is going to get you up some massive incline bike trails and for those of you doing pavement have zero problems anywhere.
Perhaps watch a YT video or two of real mountain ebikes which are usually 250w motors
I'm guessing most of the people talking about their cheap Chinese hub motors have never in their life attempted anything like these trails.
Such a spectacular deal here but also to get worked on would need to go about 120miles to closest dealer (also only option to buy as delivery not available here)
Ugh

If Yamaha got more orders then they will switch to backorder status which means they sold out bikes since Yamaha try to clean their inventory so there will be no restock…
I ordered wabash RT from Yamaha directly on Saturday but still I have not heard anything and still my card status is pending…
