To know what power level you need (and what size battery, which is even more important than the motor and controller), you'll have to define what specific job do you need it to do for you, and under what specific conditions.
What max speed do you need?
What max range, at that speed, do you need?
What terrain does it have to handle at that speed? (what is the slope of hills it must climb? what is the road type (paved, dirt, rock, sand, etc)?).
What is the worst-case wind it must be able to maintain that speed against?
What is the total expected rider/bike/etc weight?
Etc.
Knowing those things you can determine how good the bike you need must be.

I’m stuck in deciding if the 5000watt model will do the job as also I’d like to be able to use the peddle assist options whilst out riding with my wife on her ebike plus are they happy to be sat if I want at 45mph or will this be screaming the arse out of it ? Will the 8000 watt be to much of a animal when using it on peddle assist ? Thanks from U.K.
