You haven't given us a lot to go on - budget, range, weight, terrain, etc - but this might be worth looking at to start with https://wooshbikes.co.uk/?santana-cd
My wife has one, often does 50 - 60 mile rides over some big hills in N Wales, but uses 2 batteries due to her lack of strength and arthritis. The build quality is not fabulous, but good value for money we think.
You can't buy a street legal throttle only bike in the UK, they have to be peddle assisted. Whoosh say this one is legal because you have to use the peddles to get it moving before the throttle will operate.

For the same reason the majority of the high end bikes are choosing to produce them as opposed to hub motors , plenty of info available on the net if you want to research .Go and try both types and see if you agree , I know I do

I've been riding, testing and repairing just about every type of ebike for ten years. I don't need to do any internet research thank you, and I don't agree that a mid motor is the best solution for riding on the road, especially if you want a throttle.
