I’m with you, I’m drifting between the 2020 models of the Specialized Levo Turbo Expert, Scott Rail 9.8 and Scott Genius ERide 900 Tuned All while wondering if I should hold for the 2021 models. Then again I’m thinking just get one and get out and ride ?

Think of it this way - if you are looking at bikes with the Gen 4 Bosch or the Brose (Specilized) the only changes between 2020 and 2021 are likely to be component spec and cosmetic, if you are looking at Brands who use the Shimano then they are likely to have totally new bikes with the new motor systems and batteries - however no-one (at least publicly) has tested or knows much about the new Shimano system other than it is likely to be more powerful and more efficient Thant the current e8000.

Think your right about the shimano thing , but the ebike industry is moving so quickly I think when ever you buy a ebike they'll be something new coming round the corner , I'm jumping in soon with the bosch gen4 I dont want to wait for the new shimano stuff as I think it will be awhile away even though I've got a feeling it will be abit better than the bosch gen4

The most critical thing is the rest of the bike, not the motor - all the big players are good, and when you are out of the trail its much of a muchness between the current motors, far motor important is how the bike rides, the components, that it fits you, and the riding you want to do.

I have ridden so many different EMTB's, and my memories from each one are not about the motors, but about whether it was fun to ride.

Obviously battery capacity and range play a factor in the decision process, but really you are looking at the same decisions you would make with any other bike purchase.
