Thanks for that, helpful. Yes, so I am using a carbon gravel bike. So 24kg, me at 75kg, tailer ~10kg. Perhaps on 15% I will be on a limit around 50kg. I do think I need to gear down a bit. The issue is the hill is curved, so you can't get a great run up and keep pace, you have to slow and navigate.

We will find out. I need to carry a 70kg washing machine next week, so that will be a good test.

In my mind a 70kg washing machine will be no issue for the motor, but it does depend on the gear range whether you'll be able to use it to it's potential.

Thanks. I do have a larger cassette so I will fit that if needed.
I think the other issue is the ebike is my wife's and she's short and I'm tall, so me trying to pedal it isn't very efficient. I will try raise the saddle.
