Is the Merida Lithos 10K road legal in Australia?

What motor does the Merida Lithos 10K have?
The Merida Lithos 10K uses a Bosch Performance Line CX-R motor, in a mid-drive position, producing 120Nm of torque. Mid-drive motors climb hills better because they work through the bike's gears.
How much does the Merida Lithos 10K weigh?
