A full-suspension e-bike pairs a front suspension fork with a rear shock and pivot linkage, so both wheels can move independently to absorb impacts instead of just the front. That's the key difference from a hardtail, which handles the front bump but sends everything from the rear wheel straight into the frame and the rider.
Presence of full suspension shows up most on rough terrain. With the rear wheel able to track the ground over roots, rocks, and loose surfaces instead of skipping over them, you get real traction gains on technical climbs and descents, plus a noticeably smoother, less fatiguing ride on anything that isn't pavement. It's not just a trail-riding perk, either: the same rear shock that soaks up a rock garden also takes the edge off potholes and cracked pavement on a daily commute, which is why full suspension has found its way onto plenty of bikes that never see a mountain.
The concessions are that full-suspension bikes typically run a few pounds heavier than a comparable hardtail, cost more upfront, and need periodic servicing on the shock and pivot bearings that a hardtail simply doesn't have. On smooth pavement or a long climb, some of that rear suspension energy gets absorbed into the shock instead of pushing you forward, an effect riders call pedal bob, so a hardtail (or no suspension at all) stays the more efficient choice for flat, paved commuting. If your riding regularly leaves pavement, though, that efficiency loss is a small price for the extra control.
