In fact watts are really difficult for manufacturers to advertise. To @Gary point above, they have to be close to the law to avoid regulatory action.
I’d assume that’s why they use figures like max 340% assistance instead of Watts. Seems safer to me to stop eyebrows being raised by regulators.
NM, however, as far as I can see has zero regulation. And this is probably why motor manufacturers are using this in their headline stats / marketing.
