If you want a hybrid, then the Boardman HYB 8.9E is a whisker over £2k* at the moment, with no suspension:

You'll need to allow £28 for mudguards, and some extra if you want panniers - but the frame has all the necessary fixing holes.
My wife has one, and she definitely doesn't break out in a sweat (unlike me trying to keep up on an ordinary tourer - grr!).
At 6.5 miles each way you can have full power all the time if you really want to irrtitate other cyclists - and still have a lot of battery spare.
