E-bike geometry

Was looking at the Trek Verve+ 2 and its frame geometry. Holy cow!
68.5 degree head tube, 95mm of trail and a whopping 33mm of wheel flop.
Is there something about e-bikes that lend themselves to this highly unusual setup?
Any ideas on what Trek is thinking with this?
Just for comparison, my bikes hover around 40mm trail and 12mm of flop.
I can not imagine pedaling a frame with the Verve's numbers, at least not uphill.
