They broke the mechanical link between peddles and wheel, so why keep the belt or chain!?.

They are keeping the part that gives a lot of mechanical problems and increasesx maintenance.

Just noticed, it does have a belt or chain because the drive motor is near the peddles.

Seems odd that they didn't get rid of the belt/chain to!

The electronics takes your peddling data and then instructs the hub drive motor controller what to do.

This controls the power to the motor and also regenerative braking.

The peddles are basically decoupled from the motor and wheel.

It's a cycle-by-wire system.

No more gears: meet the new e-bike drive system with no mechanical link between the pedals and rear wheel | electric bike reviews, buying advice and news - ebiketips Girona-based Niche Mobility says it intends to create a new category of e-bikes, replacing mechanical gearing with a fully automatic and digital system, which it plans to market to bike manufacturers ...

I should have patented this idea 😀
I discussed this on Twitter years ago.

A new eBike motor and transmission system, it has a software and electronics that replace gears and chain.

The peddles turn a generator which purely acts as a sensor.

Labour’s great green energy plan could be a legacy as vital as the NHS | Polly Toynbee Ed Miliband has a rare chance to do for the climate what Nye Bevan did for health: create something future generations will be proud of, says Guardian columnist Polly Toynbee

'Every solar panel, every wind turbine, every heat pump, every EV on the road makes the UK more secure. This link between clean energy and national security throws off the idea that green policy is weak, fluffy, lefty, wokery, when it is basic national defence.'

It's not really about the technology.
It's about it requiring the existing gas network to be maintained and his assumption that he can control how it is used and the politics behind burning gas.
On top of that it is a vegetarian/vegan agenda that he does not disclose.

Nigel Farage calls for parking charges to be scrapped on North East high streets Reform UK leader Nigel Farage was on the campaign trail on high streets in South Shields and Gateshead on Tuesday, ahead of May's local council elections

In Newcastle on street parking costs the council £9,260,871.63 per year.
If on street parking is 'free' that would still be a cost that needs to be covered. It's roughly the same as a 6% rise in council tax, on top of existing rises.

EVs are now cheaper than ICE vehicles (based on average prices) and there are plenty of cheaper EVs this year so far, with more to come.

They are beliefs because you just said you don't know much about EVs, but you are basing you judgement on them with information about other technologies (ICE).
