My bike shop has one from Trek, the power sits on a rack above the rear wheel, that only goes 20 mph, and he says you ALWAYS have to assist it, else it shuts off.
$2,100.

Introduced by SANYO in Japan in December 2008, the eneloop bike is a 26-inch, three-speed regenerative, pedal-assist hybrid electric bicycle. As such, riders can propel the eneloop bike under their own power or can engage the bike's motor and electrical system to pedal in one of three assist modes - standard, power-up or auto - where the front hub-based motor helps the bicycle and rider travel forward.
SANYO also employs its unique Torque-sensing Power Management Controller within the regenerative electrical system of the eneloop bike. As a result, the "Synergetic Hybrid Bicycle" automatically adjusts to differences in terrain uphill/downhill slopes, applying the perfect amount of assisted power when needed and engaging the regenerative properties of the "energy looping" (ene+loop) eneloop "Loop Charging" system when coasting or braking. As a result, eneloop bike owners can expect to ride up to 40 miles per charge in full "Auto" pedal assist mode, roughly increasing the battery use capacity by up to 1.18 times per charge.
The eneloop bike is expected to be available through independent bicycle dealers and specialty retailers throughout the United States beginning in November 2009, with a suggested retail price starting at $2,299.
