Sit down and ride to work on the Jetson Ryder electric scooter at low of $400 in New Green Deals
If you’re tired of taking the car to and from work, overhaul your commute with the Jetson Ryder electric scooter. Not only does it ditch gas and oil, but also lets you enjoy the sunshine and wind while commuting. Though an electric scooter, you’ll actually be able to sit down while riding, giving more of an e-bike vibe than anything else. It has a max range of 12 miles per charge and can go 15.5 MPH, all for a new low of $400 at both Best Buy and Amazon. We also have a wide selection of Tesla and e-bike discounts in today’s New Green Deals, so you won’t want to miss that either.
Head below for other New Green Deals that 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.
Jetson Ryder electric scooter has a seat for comfortable riding
Today only, as part of its Deals of the Day, Best Buy is offering the Jetson Ryder Electric Scooter for $399.99 shipped. Also at Amazon, but stock there at this price is dwindling. Normally $600 direct from Jetson and $500 at both Amazon or Best Buy, today’s deal comes in at $50 below the previous best price and marks a new all-time low that we’ve tracked. The Jetson Ryder is perfect for getting around town with ease this spring. It’s lower-cost than buying an e-bike, more compact for smaller homes, and still delivers a gas- and oil-free experience. The Jetson Ryder’s 250W motor can propel you at up to 15.5 MPH and the battery lasts for up to 12 miles per charge. While you might have to plug-in at work, it is still portable enough to bring it in to power up between when you arrive and leave.
The 12-inch wheels of the Jetson Ryder deliver plenty of stability for riding on the sidewalk, dirt roads, and even a little at the beach. There’s a LED headlight so you can see at night and a handbrake so you can stop when needed as well. On top of all that, there’s no need for you to do any work to ride, as the acceleration is all based in the twist throttle and not on you pushing or pedaling at all. So, if you can get to work in under 12 miles, then this is a great way to enjoy some sunshine and wind this spring while also ditching gas and oil from your daily commute.

Amazon is now offering the Jackery Explorer 2000 PRO Power Station for $1,784 shipped after clipping the on-page coupon.

It’s $15 under our previous mention from back in January and comes within $85 of the all-time low from the Black Friday holiday shopping season last fall. Jackery’s Explorer 2000 Pro arrives as one of the brand’s most capable portable power stations yet with a 2160Wh output. Its three AC outlets come backed by dual USB-A as well as a pair of 100W USB-C ports for topping off smartphones, MacBooks, and other gadgets. So whether you’re looking for a tailgate companion through the end of the year to power heaters and the like, or just want some extra power on-hand in case of emergencies, this power station has you covered.
If you’re in need of some completely off-grid power, there’s also a bundle on sale today that takes even more cash off the MSRP. The Solar Generator 2000 PRO from Jackery comes centered around the same power station as above, but also is outfitted with a pair of 200W SolarSaga panels. Normally fetching $3,599, you’re now looking at a discounted price of $2,699. This is matching the second-best discount to date at $900 off while marking the lowest we’ve seen this year.
Segway’s latest F series electric scooters now start at $350 (Save $100+), more from $143
Amazon is now offering some of the very first discounts across Segway’s latest Ninebot electric scooters, alongside other EVs just in time for spring. Headlining the batch is the Segway Ninebot F65, which clocks in with a $799.99 shipped sale price. Marking one of the very first chances to save, today’s offer is down from the usual $900 going rate in order to deliver $100 in savings. It clocks in at $1 less than our previous January mention and is the only discount we’ve seen since. Arriving as one of the latest entries in the Segway lineup, the new Ninebot F65 packs a 700W motor that enables this compact EV to travel up to 18.6 MPH. The internal battery also steps up to deliver an even more impressive 40.4-mile range, which should be smooth on the 10-inch pneumatic tires. There’s also some other staples from the Segway lineup like a dual breaking system, folding design for easily transporting between rides, and the ability to ride up 20% grade slopes.
Another one of the more recent additions to the Segway lineup is also getting in on the savings today, its Ninebot F25 packing a 300W output that allows the EV to travel at up to 15.5 MPH on a single charge. There’s a 12.4-mile range, which pairs with some of the other notable features like regenerative electric braking, 10-inch pneumatic tires for a smooth ride, and folding design that makes storing away in-between rides more convenient.

Stripe cut 300 jobs, representing about 3.5% of its workforce, mostly in product, engineering and operations, CNBC has confirmed.
The payments company, valued at about $70 billion in the private markets, still expects to increase headcount by 10,000 by the end of the year, which would be a 17% increase, and is “not slowing down hiring,” according to a memo to staff from Chief People Office Rob McIntosh. Business Insider reported earlier on the cuts and the memo.
A Stripe spokesperson also confirmed to CNBC that a cartoon image of a duck with text that read, “US-Non-California Duck,” was accidentally attached as a PDF to emails sent to some of the employees who were laid off. Some of the emails mistakenly provided affected employees with an incorrect termination date, the spokesperson said.
McIntosh sent a follow-up email to staffers apologizing for the “notification error” and “any confusion it caused.”
“Corrected and full notifications have since been sent to all impacted Stripes,” he wrote.
In 2022, Stripe cut roughly 1,100 jobs, or 14% of its workers, downsizing alongside most of the tech industry, as soaring inflation and rising interest rates forced companies to focus on profits over growth. The Information reported that Stripe had a few dozen layoffs in its recruiting department in 2023.
Stripe’s valuation sank from a peak of $95 billion in 2021 to $50 billion in 2023, before reportedly rebounding to $70 billion last year as part of a secondary share sale. The company ranked third on last year’s CNBC Disruptor 50 list.
In October, Stripe agreed to pay $1.1 billion for crypto startup Bridge Network, whose technology is focused on making it easy for businesses to transact using digital currencies.
Brothers Patrick and John Collison, who founded Stripe in 2010, have intentionally steered clear of the public markets and have given no indication that an offering is on the near-term horizon. Total payment volume at the company surpassed $1 trillion in 2023.

Thinking about upgrading your EV? Rivian (RIVN) launched a new promo on Tuesday, offering up to $6,000 to upgrade your R1S or R1T. Here’s how you can snag some savings.
Rivian R1S and R1T upgrade deal offers up to $6,000
Rivian delivered over 51,500 vehicles last year as the EV maker gains momentum. Although it was only slightly higher than the ~50,100 delivered in 2023, Rivian is expected to see even more growth this year.
After shutting down its Normal, IL manufacturing plant last April and renegotiating supplier contracts, Rivian has seen “significant cost improvements,” according to CEO RJ Scaringe.
Rivian also began delivering its next-gen R1S and R1T models last year. The new Large and Max battery packs have redesigned modules and more efficient packaging, “making them easier to manufacture and service.” For example, Rivian’s new EVs use seven ECUs, down from 17 in the first-generation R1T and R1S.
With new plant upgrades, reworked supplier contracts, and more efficient vehicles, Rivian is now passing the savings on to customers.
Rivian introduced a new promo on Tuesday, offering up to $6,000 to upgrade your R1T or R1S. The bonus amount varies by trim:
- Tri with Max battery: $6,000 USD / CAD 8,600
- Dual with Max battery and Performance upgrade: $4,500 USD / CAD 6,500
- Dual with Max battery: $3,000 USD / CAD 4,300
The offer is for current R1T or R1S owners or lessees in the US and Canada. Rivian launched the new promo on January 21, and it runs through March 31, 2025.
After you purchase or lease a qualifying vehicle, Rivian will apply a discount toward the MSRP. You must take delivery by March 31, 2025. In the fine print, Rivian stated, “You must request a trade-in estimate to qualify for this offer, but trade-in of a vehicle is not required.”
Any other models are excluded from the offer. These include Dual Standard configurations, Dual with Large battery configurations, custom builds, demo vehicles, and pre-owned vehicles.
The new offer follows Rivian’s previous upgrade promo introduced last October, giving qualifying gas-powered vehicle owners or lessees up to $3,000.
Check out the Rivian R1 Shop to view eligible models. You can see eligible Rivian R1S here and R1T models here.
Electrek’s Take
Rivian’s R1S was already the tenth best-selling electric vehicle in the US last year, with nearly 27,000 models sold. With more driving range and power at a lower cost, the electric SUV could see even more demand in 2025.
Then again, with the arrival of new luxury electric SUVs, like the Jeep Wagoneer S and Volvo EX90, Rivian will face more competition in the US.
Rivian’s latest promo comes as the Company looks to carry the momentum from the end of 2024 into the new year. The EV maker is offering other deals, including 1.99% APR for 60 months on the R1 Dual with a Max Battery and Performance upgrade.
Even if you are not eligible for the promo, we can still help you find deals on Rivian’s electric SUV in your area. You can use our links below to view offers on the Rivian R1S and R1T near you today.
