More info about the bike would be helpful but probably a Bafang mid drive kit with a quality battery.

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Bafang or Photon mid drive or rear hub drive probably, but don't forget you need a controller, and you really don't want to get a sketchy battery.
A mid drive would let you take advantage of the bike's gears while a hub drive would reduce wear-and-tear on the bike's regular drivetrain, but it won't be able to use the gears at all.
