The Focus JAM² is a powerful and beautifully balanced e-MTB that is considerably cheaper than most of the competition.
Superb package for the money
Plush & active suspension performance
Great geometry & handling
Powerful Bosch motor
Cable routing through stem and headset is messy & complicated
Lacks mullet compatibility
Short dropper post due to limited insertion depth

Focus has found an excellent balance that translates to on-trail enjoyment, so long as you aren’t in a rush up the hills
Well thought-out spec
Neat frame storage
Looks smart
A lot of fun on the trail
A bit hefty in weight
CIS stem adds complication if you want/need to change it

It may look like a diet e-bike from certain angles but rest assured the new Focus Jam Carbon 8.9 is very much a pilot powered pedal-bike.
