I feel like having the horsepower of an entry level motorcycle is a decent benchmark.

Torque should also be part of it. Plenty of 250W e bikes that make 80+ Nm.

That's similar torque to a 750 - 800cc motorbike.

An e-bike might only weight 25 kg where a low powered motorcycle is at more than 100 kg.

More power by weight is faster and can be more dangerous

Good point. Maybe similar HP/mass ratios? Idk
