Looks much more interesting and desirable to me than the one posted in the Electra pricing thread. 
Yes, the picture of a dirty hipster, dressed in winter clothes and boots, walking a siberian husky, on the beach, that really makes me want to buy one.
Excuse me while I vomit at what has become of the bike industry.

If it makes you feel any better, this guy just took his bike and girl friend from him.
Hope the UK gets them in, i have wanted a fat tyre cruiser for ages, love Electras and this has the bits i want, more gears, fat wheels, disk brakes and still looks cool, if its bigger than the Felt versions its a winner!
Oooh they are on the UK pages already along with the new Relic and the gorgeous new Revil 3i which i think is based on the ghostrider frame, nice graphics! http://www.thecyclecentrejsy.co.uk/bikes/2016/leisureelectra.html
Most rear IGH cannot take the stress of a ebike motor. You really need a rolhoff or DaVinci hub if you want to not have to rebuild your hubs constantly.
Those are fairly pricy options that the average Joe isn't going to want to pay for with an off the shelf solution trying to meet a pricepoint.
