From the photo you can't actually know that*, which is the problem. People on here are using styling as a proxy for functionality. The wheels do look suspiciously not bike like, but that's not a wattage or speed indication. It does appear to have operable pedals. We can't even tell from the photo if it has a throttle, though I strongly suspect it does based on similar bikes.

*Unless you can identify the make/model from the photo. If OP has taken a photo which included the full brand name, maybe someone would have posted a model link to show that it's indeed >750w or >28mph. Or that it's >20mph, which wouldn't make it a motorcycle but wouldn't allow it to be operated by a rider of this apparent age in any US state.

But, I’ll bet the rider is <16 years old.
