Juiced Bikes go on sale at new all-time lows

Juiced Bikes is launching a slew of early Black Friday deals with up to $500 in savings across its entire lineup. Our top pick from the sale is the Class 2 RipRacer, which is down to $999 shipped from its normal $1,299 list price. This $300 discount marks the first time that we’ve seen Juiced offered for less than $1,000. The class 2 RipRacer has the ability to reach speeds of 20 MPH which is perfect for riding around town this fall and even into the winter and spring. The fat tires on the bike mean you’ll be able to handle sand, dirt, and even some snow with ease as well. The battery can last for up to 35 miles per charge, and you’ll even find an AirTag compartment built into the bike so you can track it should something happen. If the RipRacer doesn’t cut it for you though, then be sure to check out the rest of the Juiced Bikes sale that’s going on with up to $500 in savings across various models. Plus, check out our hands-on review of the RipRacer to learn more about what it has to offer.

Segway’s Ninebot ES2/4 electric scooters fall to best prices of the year starting at $473

Amazon is now offering the Segway Ninebot ES4 Electric Kick Scooter for $535.49 shipped. While you’d more regularly pay $700 or more, today’s offer delivers the best discount of the year at $165 off. This is the lowest we’ve seen in well over a year, and marks the second-best price of all-time. With fall weather being as inconsistent as ever, there’s still time to get some joyrides in before winter arrives. Segway’s discounted Ninebot ES4 is just the way to make that happen, with an off-season price cut that delivers its 28-mile range and 19 MPH top speed feature set for less. Capable of handling everything from commuting to work or picking up groceries to more casual rides around the block, this electric scooter sports a folding design alongside a built-in headlight for being able to ride around even once the sun goes down. 

On the more affordable side of the EV game, the Segway Ninebot E22 will have you joyriding around town for quite a bit less. Also on sale courtesy of Amazon, this more affordable offering is now even less expensive thanks to a 20% discount that drops pricing down to $473. This model too is at the lowest price of the year, and delivers 12.4 MPH top speeds and other notable features for $56 less than the lead deal.

Hit the road with up to $790 off Huck Cycles

Wellbots is offering an extra 10% off the entire lineup of Huck Cycles 2022 electric motorbikes with prices starting at $4,770 shipped. Simply use the code HUCK10 at checkout. With up to $790 in savings available across the lineup, today’s deal starts $380 below our last mention to mark the best deal we’ve seen all-time. Huck Cycles pack some impressive features across the lineup, like all models offering 40 miles of range per charge, which lets you ride to and from work without having to plug in. You’ll also find DOT-approved headlights, turn signals, and an integrated brake light as standard equipment on all models too. This means you can use the electric motorbikes on the road when registered at up to 30 MPH, though heading off-road will let you top out at 45 MPH or more. You won’t even need a single drop of gas or oil to do any of these things, either, making Huck Cycles a greener and better alternative to standard transportation.

The Eastern US’s first CFI-funded EV charging hub comes online

The Eastern US's first CFI-funded EV charging hub comes online

The first EV charging hub funded by the Charging and Fueling Infrastructure (CFI) Program in the Eastern US is now online in Deerfield, Massachusetts.

The town installed the region’s first DC fast chargers (four ports), along with four Level 2 chargers, at 59 North Main Street in South Deerfield.

These new charging stations, funded with $2.46 million from the CFI program, are conveniently located near Interstate 91 in Franklin County, the most rural county in Massachusetts, which serves drivers from Connecticut up to the Canadian border.

The hub also features local and regional bus stops and designated bike lanes with secure onsite bike racks. The chargers are meant to cater to everyone: from local residents and visitors to municipal EVs and commercial vehicles that service the region’s businesses, like those in food and beverage manufacturing.

Gabe Klein, executive director of the Joint Office of Energy and Transportation, sees this as a model for future projects:

Multi-modal charging hubs in communities are key to giving more people the choice to ride and drive electric. The Town of Deerfield is showing leadership in building out convenient charging infrastructure that brings new transportation choices to rural and disadvantaged communities while supporting local commerce.

In recent years, Deerfield has experienced increased climate change-driven flooding from nearby rivers, including the Deerfield River, the Connecticut River, and the Bloody Brook. The project incorporates environmental engineering designed to mitigate and adapt to the effects of flooding and climate, including the installation of permeable asphalt and rain gardens, planting of native trees, grasses, and shrubs, and the creation of new greenspace in the center of Deerfield.

The Biden-Harris administration’s CFI Grant Program is expanding EV infrastructure nationwide. It offers grants for projects that complement and expand upon the initiatives of the NEVI program in urban, rural, and disadvantaged and low-income communities. So far, the CFI Grant Program has allocated over $1 billion to nearly 100 projects across the US, encouraging private investments and expanding the EV charging network to make EV ownership more practical and convenient.

Kia’s new low-cost EV4 was just spotted in the US for the first time

Kia's new low-cost EV4 was just spotted in the US for the first time

Kia’s upcoming EV4 electric sedan was just spotted testing in the US for the first time. The low-cost EV is expected to make its big debut by the end of the year. Here’s a look at the new model.

The EV4 will round out Kia’s new “EVs for all” master plan launched last year. Kia showcased three new models, the EV3, EV4, and EV5, during its first annual EV Day in October 2023.

During the event, Kia outlined its new global strategy to “lead and accelerate the EV revolution” with a wide range of models priced from $30,000 to $80,000.

Kia plans to rapidly expand its lineup with a series of smaller, lower-priced models. It launched the EV9, its first three-row electric SUV, which is already proving to be a hot seller in the US. Starting at under $55,000, the EV9 is still a great deal compared to others in its class, but Kia plans to go even lower.

The EV3 and EV4 are expected to be among the most affordable electric vehicles when they arrive in the US.

Kia’s new EV4 is now testing in the US

Ahead of its official debut, Kia’s new EV4 sedan was recently caught driving on US streets for the first time.

The latest image from KindelAuto doesn’t reveal much more than what’s been shown in the past, but the fact that it’s now testing in the US is significant.

Kia’s EV3 is already on sale in Korea, starting at around $30,000 (42.08 million won). Earlier this week, the company said its new compact SUV is now available across Europe, starting at around $38,000 (36,000 euros) with a “segment-leading range” of up to 375 miles (WLTP).

Next up will be the EV4. Kia is expected to officially reveal the new EV by the end of the year, with deliveries starting in 2025. It could be as soon as next week at the 2024 LA Auto Show.

The interior will feature Kia’s advanced new ccNC infotainment system with dual 12.3″ navigation and driver display screens. An otherwise minalimalistic design is expected inside.

Kia’s EV4 will also be available in a hatchback variant. Although the hatch is likely aimed at European buyers, it was also recently spotted testing in the US for the first time.

We will learn official prices closer to launch, but the EV4 is expected to start at around $35,000 to $40,000.

Kia is teasing five new vehicles for the US, at least one being a new EV, that will debut at the LA Auto Show next week. Will it be the EV3? EV4?
