Same as I use with my regular bikes - a hose with low pressure, bike wash, and some towels. The motors on most e-MTBs are water resistant, so as long as you don't use high pressure or dunk the thing under water, you should be fine.

Bosch motor has limited water resistance. So i tend to keep the (low pressure) hose away from that area *entirely*. Wipe down with a cloth or brush, and focus on keeping the rest of the chainset clean. Then, every couple of month, I will disassemble the chainring, give it a good clean off the bike, then check/grease the motor's seals.

The rest of the bike: A good squirt of Muc Off and a wipe down with clean water. Chain cleaning reservoir thingy for the chain. Stiff washing-up brush for the cassette.
