they look beefy maybe 3mm
Possibly 12g (2.6mm), that's used on some ebikes. You can buy them pretty easily now that ebikes are a thing.

2 cross 3 cross patern?
Hub motors are very large compared with the ERD, use what the maker suggests, which might be just 1X. Too many crossings will make the entry angle at the rim unworkable.

My ex companion has bought an electic horse,
the motor is in the rear hub.
The rear wheel is going out of true regularly,
I recommended the most professional outfit to sort it out.
The tension were all over the place on the trouble free front wheel,
I hope the rear was treated the same way .
Evening out tensions at the rear magically brought back the wheel almost perfectly true.
I brought my tension metre on holiday,
but forgot my spoke gauge,
they look beefy maybe 3mm.
Would DT Alpine be the go to spoke like on a tandem?
