Colorado’s largest electric school bus fleet has a new charging hub to keep its 28 buses ready to run their daily routes.

Today’s 9to5Toys Green Deals is headlined by Anker’s 2026 SOLIX S2000 portable power station at $550 off, but you can also cash in and take a chore off your list with Segway’s Navimow i105N Robot Lawn Mower down at $669. Another notable markdown today is the WORX 2-in-1 reciprocating saw for $73, which I personally own and love.

Head below for other Green Deals we’ve found today and, of course, Electrek‘s best EV buying and leasing deals. Also, check out the new Electrek Tesla Shop for the best deals on Tesla accessories.

Illinois homeowners can now get rooftop solar paired with a whopping 60-kWh home battery for no money down – but this isn’t free equipment.

Waymo is now letting all riders in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Phoenix hail its next-generation Ojai robotaxi — a vehicle built in China by Zeekr.

That makes the Ojai one of the only ways for an American to ride in a Chinese-made EV, a car they still can’t legally buy for themselves.

Geely says its next-generation solid-state EV battery will reach an energy density of up to 500 Wh/kg, and it’s already running the cells through real-world validation ahead of a pilot rollout in 2027.

That number is the whole story. At 500 Wh/kg, Geely’s cells would hold roughly twice the energy per kilogram of the best lithium-ion battery packs shipping in EVs today.

British folding e-bike maker FLIT has just unveiled its latest lightweight folding e-bike, the FLIT M2i. And at just 13.3 kg (29.3 lb), this thing is getting impressively light for a fully equipped electric bike.

Genesis unveiled its first full-size flagship SUV, the GV90, and it’s about as over-the-top as they come. The ultra-luxe electric SUV packs coach doors, a built-in refrigerator, massive digital screens, air suspension, and plenty of other high-end touches.

Wawa launched self-branded Tesla Superchargers earlier this year, and now it’s doing the same with Electrify America EV fast chargers.

Cuba is struggling with a US-imposed blockade on fuel shipments, which has led to many crises, including a breakdown in garbage collection in Havana. But a tiny startup is stepping up to collect garbage in one neighborhood, using electric three-wheeled vehicles powered by solar.

Portland International Airport (PDX) in Oregon can now charge up to 20 rental EVs at once without sacrificing valuable floor space, thanks to a new overhead ChargePoint fast charging system.

Our midweek Green Deals is being led by an incredible exclusive deal on the Heybike Hero 750W Mid-Drive Carbon-Fiber All-Terrain e-bike at a new $1,049.50 low. Right behind that, we have EcoFlow’s latest 48-hour flash sale with up to $2,200 savings on four units, like the D...

The city of London has released a report showing drastic drops in air pollution since it expanded its Ultra Low Emission Zone, an area within the city where polluting vehicles must pay a fee to visit.

(Update 8/19/26, original article 5/15/25: A new study shows that children in London have significantly better lung function than before the zone was implemented)

Lucid unveiled its 2027 Air lineup, streamlining the options across its electric sedan range and adding a new Stealth & Sound Package for the entry-level Air Pure.

The Air Grand Touring keeps its title as the longest-range EV on sale at up to 512 miles, and pricing holds flat across all four trims for the new model year.

Hyundai revealed the exterior and interior design of the all-new Tucson for the first time, and it already looks like a big upgrade.

Electric scooters have long demonstrated an interesting dichotomy. On one end of the spectrum, you’ve got cheap commuter scooters that feel like they’re one pothole away from shaking themselves apart. On the other end are increasingly large, dual-motor monsters that weigh 80 or 100 pounds (45 kg) and blur the line between scooter and motorcycle.

The VMAX VX2 Lite aims for the sweet spot in the middle. It promises a genuine full-suspension ride, respectable 25 mph (40 km/h) performance, and up to 56 miles (90 km) of claimed range without turning into something you dread carrying up a flight of stairs. After spending time riding the long-range version, I think VMAX got surprisingly close to that goal.

A former Tesla president says the endlessly delayed next-generation Roadster is being held up by SpaceX “hovering” technology — and that the project is really about pulling Tesla and SpaceX closer together.

Jon McNeill, Tesla’s president from 2015 to 2018 and now co-founder of VistaShares and CEO of DVx Ventures, made the comments as Tesla preps a long-promised Roadster demo nearly nine years after the car was first unveiled.

We’ve got an even more EV-packed edition of Green Deals than we saw yesterday, filled with first-time deals from three of our favorite brands. First, there’s the backorder bundle deal on Lectric’s XPress2 Long-Range Step-Thru Cruiser e-bike with $723 in FREE gear, including...

There are millions of Tesla vehicles on the road today which were sold on the promise of full autonomy, but without hardware capable of doing so. Tesla has hemmed and hawed about solutions to this problem – so one owner took it into his own hands.

A Tesla “Robotaxi” running with no safety monitor onboard drove straight through a row of bollards protecting a closed-off lane in Austin, then kept driving.

The video surfaced Monday, less than a month after Tesla’s head of AI told investors the Robotaxi program has an “impeccable safety record” with “zero notable incidents.”

While no one was hurt or in danger in this incident, it is worrying to see an unsupervised Tesla vehicle ram through clearly visible bollards with plenty of time to see them and think about going around them.

BYD confirmed the new Denza N8 has a “world-leading” pure electric CLTC range of 1,003 km (623 miles), and it can recharge in as little as 5 minutes.

Volkswagen electric vehicle drivers will finally have access to Samsung Wallet with Digital Key, hands-free entry, and more. The service is initially rolling out to select VW ID vehicles in Europe.

Ride1Up’s Portola has been one of those e-bikes that make a lot of sense on paper: a compact folding design, useful cargo capability, and the kind of pricing that helped Ride1Up build its reputation for high-value e-bikes in the first place.

Einride is putting 500 Tesla Semis on US roads, the largest commitment to Tesla’s electric truck that anyone has made public.

That will takes the Swedish freight company from roughly 250 deployed electric trucks to about 750. First deliveries start next month, with the rest arriving in phases over 24 months.

California could turn parked EVs into one of its largest sources of energy storage – but utilities need to make it a lot easier for EV owners to participate.

Octopus Energy is taking a swing at one of the most irritating parts of public EV charging: needing a phone full of apps just to plug in.

On this second consecutive self-steering episode of Quick Charge, we take a look at how Tesla increased its national self-driving Robotaxi fleet by half with the stroke of a pen, and see how the company’s autonomous deployments compare to the rest of the world’s.

Tesla has told employees it is preparing a public launch of the Cybercab in Austin as soon as this month, according to a report from The Information.

It would be the first Tesla vehicle ever built without a steering wheel or pedals — and the least exciting vehicle the company has ever made, because it is virtually worthless without an autonomous driving system Tesla still hasn’t delivered at scale.

With a tri-motor setup delivering over 1,500 horsepower, the Denza Z can hit 0 to 62 mph in under 2 seconds. It’s also cheaper than a Porsche 911 Turbo S.

Starting at $35,000, the 2027 Hyundai IONIQ 5 will remain among the most affordable EVs in the US.

Aventon is leading our Monday Green Deals this week as it has kicked off a Labor Day Sale on its smart e-bikes, including first-ever savings on the newest REC models, as well as the second-ever 2026 discount on the Soltera 2.5 Lightweight Commuter e-bike at its $999 low. Ri...
