Could be an e-bike, looks like the same battery under the rack. The old pic obviously precedes v brakes but the rest of it???

Go here. Bici elettrica Montana E-Bluecity Uomo 28" e-bike 2018. Di Ruvo - Bike Store
That is a Pletcher (sp?) style rack - it has a spring loaded 'trap' holding down that package of prosciutto or smoked fish or whatever.

That is not an Ebike, though... there are only 2 X brake and 1 X shifter controls coming off the handlebar. I have no doubt it is a modern photo, but it's not an E bike.
