Opinions on "pedal assisted" bikes

I haven't ridden in years. I have a bad-ish back and live in an extremely hilly area. I'd like to be able to ride with my grandson more comfortably (including some light trails). I've seen a fair number of these around but don't know what to think.
Do I need at least some forked suspension?
Are they all absurdly heavy compared to "regular" bikes?
Are the batteries decent?
etc.
TIA!

I would say test drive one of each at your local bike shop and make a decision from there. A bike might be tough to get your hands on with all the corona stuff just an FYI

In America they are heavily restricted as to trail access. For example they are banned on bike trails in National Parks and Forestry trails.
