Review: Ride1Up’s Revv1 DRT e-bike is a rugged off-roader with plenty of suspension and hidden punch

When it comes to e-bikes, most people’s immediate thought is a commuter model designed to get you through streets to your various destinations, but with Ride1Up’s Revv1 DRT e-bike, the fun is extended (and primarily focused) to off-road adventures, and boy, does this baby have some go in it. It’s been over two years since we reviewed the Revv1 FS counterpart, which we came away quite impressed with its SUPER73-like design. Now we’re heading off the beaten path with this newer off-road variant, which boasts improved specs that outshine its predecessors in the series.

To get our full hands-on impression of this new flagship e-scooter, be sure to check out our review here.

Score $1,600 in exclusive savings on Jackery’s Explorer 3000 v2 (HomePower 3000) LiFePO4 station at a new $899 low

Wellbots is disrupting Jackery’s direct website pricing on its Explorer 3000 v2 (HomePower 3000) Portable Power Station – all with exclusive savings for 9to5Toys readers – that can be yours for $899 shipped, after using the code 9TO5JACK100 at checkout for an additional $100 off. Jackery’s second-generation Explorer 3000 model (hence the v2) hit the market back in May, carrying a $2,499 MSRP that we’ve mostly seen discounted between $1,699 and $1,499 in the months since. The brand’s current Early Prime Day Sale, however, kicked off by dropping the price lower than ever to $999, where the discount here would place costs, were it not for our exclusive code. You’ll be saving a total $1,600 off the going rate here, which beats out all our previous mentions and lands it at a new all-time low price.

Known by dual monikers, the Jackery Explorer 3000 v2/HomePower 3000 power station is a great option for camping/RV lovers who also want a reliable means to power devices/appliances/tools on jobsites or at home, particularly should the grid fail. This is the latest generation that has been upgraded to LiFePO4 batteries, with a 3,072Wh capacity that is supported by an improved battery management system and the brand’s ChargeShield 2.0 protections, which we’ve seen added to all its v2 models. There are 12 output ports (with a TT-30R port for RV support) that deliver up to 3,600W of steady power and can surge up to 7,200W when needed.

You’ll have five primary recharging methods to take advantage of with Jackery’s Explorer 3000 v2, with a standard AC outlet getting the battery back to full in around 2.2 hours, as well as the obvious solar capabilities with a max 1,000W input that would refill the batteries in up to 11 hours. There’s also the new option for a gas generator connection, alongside the on-the-go car auxiliary port compatibility and dual AC/DC charging that only takes up to 1.7 hours.

Heybike’s Hauler cargo e-bike with a 440-pound carrying capacity and multi-battery options hits new lows from $899

As part of its ongoing Prime Fall e-bike Sale, Heybike has dropped several models to returning and new low prices, like the standard Hauler Single-Battery Cargo e-bike at $899 shipped while its dual-battery variant sits a little higher at $1,299 shipped. They would normally go for $1,499 and $1,899 outside of discounts, which is honestly rare, as we usually see them discounted to $1,199 and $1,599, with falls lower during sale events. You’re looking at 40% and 32% markdowns here that are cutting $600 off both tags and landing costs at new all-time lows. You can browse the sale’s entire lineup of deals by checking out our original coverage of the event here.

While we have seen it go lower in past years, you’re looking at the best price we have tracked in 2025, giving you a smarter means to top off your EV’s battery with $100 off the going rate and $250 off its MSRP.

UGREEN’s 5-port Nexode 48,000mAh power station with 300W charging speeds returns to $102, more

Through its official Amazon storefront, UGREEN is offering its Nexode 48,000mAh Portable Charger/Power Station back at $101.99 shipped. While this unit does carry a $170 MSRP, it’s been spending the last few months with continuous Prime-exclusive discounting that drops the costs between $120 and $108, with falls to lower rates peppered in once or so a month. Aside from the one-time $100 low that popped up in March, you’re otherwise looking at the best tracked price over the year, with 40% cut from its MSRP for a total of $68 in savings.

Elon Musk was caught lying about Tesla’s Cybertruck beating a Porsche 911 in a quarter-mile race that never actually happened.

The CEO reiterated the claim, despite it having been debunked for more than a year.

When Tesla unveiled the production version of the Cybertruck, it released a video of the electric pickup truck beating a Porsche 911 in what it claimed to be a 1/4 mile race while towing a Porsche 911.

They released a video of the race and then CEO Elon Musk claimed:

“It can tow a Porsche 911 across the 1/4 mile faster than the Porsche 911 can go by itself.”

However, the claim was quickly challenged for many different reasons.

First off, Tesla is comparing the top-of-the-line Cybertruck, the Cyberbeast, with the Porsche 911 Carrera T, which is the slowest 911. There are literally more than half a dozen variants of the 911 that are faster than the Carrera T or the Cybertruck.

There are some layers to this. Of course, Tesla is trying to highlight an electric pickup truck beating a sports car at “doing what it does best” while the pickup is doing what it does best.

For that, we can let slide the fact that Tesla used a lesser 911.

However, more importantly, the quarter-mile race never actually took place. From the video itself, you can see that the race finishes halfway from the speed boards, which mark the quarter mile.

It means that Tesla only filmed a 1/8-mile race.

The Cybertruck’s lead engineer, Wes Morrill, confirmed that the quarter-mile race never happened outside of simulations:

“The fastest 1/8mi CT hit while towing on the day was 7.808s at 88mph and the trailer tires were only rated to 80mph so we opted to call it a day before someone got hurt. Our simulations showed the full 1/4 mi race would be close but with the same net result, so no need to risk it. We also had some room to further lightweight the trailer but didn’t need to.”

Engineering Explained did the math and challenged the claim that the Cybertruck would beat the 911 while towing:

Furthermore, several people have since recreated a full quarter-mile race, and the Porsche 911 consistently beats the Cybertruck.

Yet, more than a year after the claim was fully debunked, CEO Elon Musk repeated it again:

Tesla has since dropped the claim that the Cybertruck is beating the 911 on the “quarter-mile” and instead only refers to a drag race. However, the CEO is still repeating the quarter-mile claim he made in 2023 when Tesla unveiled the production version of the Cybertruck.

Electrek’s Take

This is an excellent example of Elon Musk or Tesla exaggerating a claim when the truth is already impressive.

They could have performed the 1/8 mile race, made the claim, and it would have been tremendous and truthful marketing.

With that said, I think the whole EV drag race stuff is a bit played out. We know that electric powertrains perform exceptionally well in drag races.

The Porsche 911 is not really a drag race machine; it is a fun sports car that is enjoyable to drive and would ultimately smoke a Cybertruck on an extended race with a lot of cornering.

GM issued a recall for over 23,000 2024 Chevy Equinox EV models due to a unique situation where they may not make enough noise.

Chevy Equinox EV hit with recall over sound alert system

The nearly silent ride is one of the best things about driving an electric vehicle, but Chevy’s electric SUV might be a little too quiet.

In a letter to the National Highway Traffic Administration (NHTSA) on September 30, GM issued a safety recall for certain 2024 Chevy Equinox EVs.

The recall affects 23,700 electric Equinox models due to a potentially faulty pedestrian alert sound system. GM said in the letter that the sound system might not make enough noise to alert those around the vehicle when traveling at low speeds or shifting into drive.

As a result, the Equinox EV may fail to meet the safety standards required for the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No 141, “Minimum Sound Requirements for Hybrid and Electric Vehicles.”

After an investigation, GM found that Chevy Equinox EV models built between August 8, 2023, and August 28, 2024, may have incorrect software installed.

GM is not aware of any incidents, but issued the recall out of an abundance of caution. The company is still developing a fix, but said impacted vehicles will require an update to the body control module (BCM), rather than a total replacement.

Owner letters are expected to be mailed out on November 10, 2025. You can contact Chevrolet’s customer service at 1-800-222-1020 with any questions. GM’s recall number is N252527170.

You can also call the National Highway Traffic Administration Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 or visit the nhtsa.gov website for more information.

The recall comes as the Chevy Equinox EV remains one of the most popular electric vehicles in the US. In fact, it’s now America’s best-selling EV outside of the Tesla Model Y and Model 3.

After introducing the 2025 model year last year, starting at under $35,000, Chevy Equinox EV sales have surged. The recall is limited to 2024 Equinox models built during the suspected manufacturing window. Vehicles produced outside the window, including 2025 models, are not included.

Although the $7,500 federal tax credit expired on September 30, GM will continue offering it through leasing for Chevy, GMC, and Cadillac EVs.

The 2025 Chevy Equinox EV is tempting with a starting price of $34,995 and a driving range of 319 miles. Curious to see one up close? You can use our link to find Chevy Equinox EVs available near you (trusted affiliate link).
