Does anyone know a good electric bike thats shaped like a road bike or even a electric bike like the e-tour from ecomotion?

Just had a look at that ecomotion bike - sorry, but that's not a "good bike". Looks like someone slapped some "racing wheels" on a city bike frame and completed the set with the cheapest components they could find.
No wonder at this price point - realistic price for an ebike kit (battery, motor, controller, display) is around 1000 €/$ in a western country, still something like 300$ if you buy wholesale directly in china (with a high risk of DOA).

Not personally, but I gather A to B is a good website for electrics: http://www.atob.org.uk/electric-bicycle-zone/

It'd be far cheaper just to get a Sick Bike Parts electric shift kit and build your own. However from personal experience I can tell you wider tires suspension forks and suspension seat post make for a far more comfortable ride. The bike in the picture even with the Nuvinci rear hub can be built for under $2000. It'll out perform ebikes costing twice as much.

And it's only $4,050. (sarcasm) https://www.giant-bicycles.com/us/road-eplus-1
For that amount, you could buy FOUR of these & still have CA$H left over. https://www.giant-bicycles.com/us/contend-1
