If you’re tired of hauling the big pressure washer to the lake or driveway just to clean your car or boat, then it’s time to leave that in the garage. Right now you can pick up the Greenworks 24V cordless electric pressure cleaner on sale for $120 today, which delivers 25% in savings and also marks the second-best price all-time. At just $5 above the all-time low, this is the best we’ve seen since April of last year, making now a great time to pick up this 600 PSI electric pressure cleaner that works without gas, oil, or even an extension cord. 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.

Greenworks’ 24V pressure cleaner helps blast away pollen and more

Amazon is offering the Greenworks 24V 600 PSI Cordless Electric Portable Power Cleaner for $120.35 shipped. Down from a normal rate of over $160, today’s deal delivers a full 25% off and marks the second-best price that we’ve seen all-time. In fact, it comes within $5 of the all-time low that we haven’t seen since back in April of last year. While you might think of a battery-powered pressure cleaner as very effective, this model would be a great tool to keep in the shed, RV, or even boat.

This Greenworks pressure cleaner features a 5-in-1 nozzle which delivers 0, 15, 25, and 40 degree angles as well as a “watering” mode which doesn’t have quite as much power. With the ability to deliver up to 600 PSI at 0.8 GPM, this pressure cleaner isn’t quite as powerful as, say, a plug-in model. However, 600 PSI is more than enough to blast away dirt and grime from your car, boat, or other things. It has a 20-foot siphon hose which can draw water from any fresh water source too, which means you can simply drop the hose into a lake, bucket, or attach to a constant supply if you need. Of course, zero gas or oil is required here, and you’ll even get both the battery and charger in the box to get you up and going as soon as it arrives.

Segway’s new Transformers electric GoKart Pro now $399 off, plus standard model from $1,700

Last fall, Segway teamed up with Hasbro to launch a lineup of Transformers-inspired electric vehicles. Now ahead of the latest film starring the Autobots, Amazon is discounting the lineup’s flagship EV. On sale for one of the first times, the new Segway Ninebot Bumblebee Electric GoKart PRO drops to $1,899.99 shipped. Typically fetching $2,299, you’re now looking at $399 in savings to go alongside the first price cut in months. It has sold for less, with the all-time low arriving back in March at $64 less. Today’s offer though is the second-best price we’ve seen to date.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a dedicated Transformers fan or not, the Ninebot GoKart PRO can handle zipping you or the kids around the block at up to 23 MPH top speeds with a 15-mile range. Its durable design can also be folded down for transportation, and pairs with other features like an electric brake, integrated headlights, and taillights. You can also detach the included Ninebot S MAX which powers the experience for a self-balancing scooter ride alongside the go kart fun. But of course this is the Transformers variant, which comes decked out in a vibrant yellow color scheme fitting for the Bumblebee inspiration. There’s also an Optimus Prime model worth a look for much of the same theming, too.

If you can forgo the Transformers branding, the standard Segway GoKart PRO is also on sale right now. Dropping down from the same $2,300 going rate, the non-themed model sells for $1,699.99 courtesy of Amazon. It’s now $600 off and landing at the best price of the year. We’ve seen it sell for $100 less in the past, but the last offer that low was over the holiday season last year.

ALLPOWERS’ 200W foldable solar panel runs your campsite

The official ALLPOWERS Amazon storefront is offering its 200W Foldable Solar Panel for $219 shipped once you clip the on-page coupon. Coming in at $80 off the normal $299 going rate, today’s deal comes in at $20 below the previous best mention we had for an ALLPOWERS 200W. In fact, this delivers a new all-time low that we’ve tracked for a portable 200W solar panel. If you’ve been looking for a way to power your campsite without a gas generator, then this is a solid choice.

Ready to output up to 200W of power, this solar panel is compatible with basically all portable power stations on the market. That means you can plug the solar panel into the power station and use the sun’s rays to juice up throughout the day so the battery can run your campsite at night. It’s IP66 waterproof and has a built-in kickstand to be held at an angle to get the most sun exposure. There’s a MC-4 plug with up to 25A max output. On top of that, you’ll get MC-4 to Anderson and MC-4 to DC adapters as well to hook into other power systems. When not in use, this solar panel folds flat and weighs under 14 pounds, making it easy to travel with as well.

BP celebrates the opening of its first TA DC fast charging hub in Florida

BP celebrates the opening of its first TA DC fast charging hub in Florida

Executives from TravelCenters America (TA) and BP were joined by local elected officials at a ribbon cutting for the two companies’ first DC fast charging hub on I-95 in Jacksonville, Florida – the first of several such EV charging stations to come online.

Frequent road-trippers are no doubt familiar with TA’s red, white, and blue logo and probably think of the sites as safe, convenient stops in otherwise unfamiliar surroundings. The company hopes those positive associations will carry over as its customers continue to switch from gas to electric at a record pace in 2025 and beyond.

“Today marks a significant milestone in our journey to bring new forms of energy to our customers as we support their changing mobility needs, while leveraging the best of bp and TA,” explains Debi Boffa, CEO of TravelCenters of America. Boffa, however, was quick to – but TA is quick to point out that TA isn’ no’t leaving its ICE customers behind. “While this is significant, to our loyal customers and guests, rest assured TA will continue to provide the same safe and reliable fueling options it has offered for over 50 years, regardless of the type of fuel.”

The charging hub along the I-95 offers 12 DC fast charging ports offering up to 400kW of power for lickety-quick charging. While they’re at the TA, EV drivers can visit restrooms, shop at TA’s convenience store, or eat at fast food chains like Popeyes and Subway. Other TA centers offer wifi and pet-friendly amenities as well – making them ideal partners for BP as the two companies builds out their charging networks.

As we expand our EV charging network in the US, I am thrilled to unveil our first of many hubs at TA locations,” offers Sujay Sharma, CEO of BP Pulse Americas. “These sites are strategically located across key highway corridors that provide our customers with en route charging when and where they need it most, while offering convenient amenities, like restaurants and restrooms.”

Electrek’s Take

As I type this, BP has more than 37,000 EV charging ports operational globally, and plans to have more than 100,000 in service by 2030. The company made headlines in 2022 when it announced that its EV chargers were “on the cusp” of being more profitable than its gas pumps. Three years on, it seems like that’s a done deal.

As ever, money talks.

E-quipment highlight: Toro e2500 THL and TS Electric Ultra Buggies

E-quipment highlight: Toro e2500 THL and TS Electric Ultra Buggies

The new e2500-THL and TS electric Ultra Buggies from Toro offer construction and demo crews a carrying capacity of 2500 lbs. (on the TS model), six-and-a-half foot dump height (on the THL), nearly 13 cubic ft. of capacity, and hours of quiet, fume-free operation.

Despite the second Trump administration’s loosening grip on emissions regulations, the fact remains that a growing number of municipalities in both red and blue regions of the US are continuing to clamp down on noise regulations, which means that construction crews with quiet running electric equipment will be able to get jobs that crews stubbornly holding on to diesel and gas won’t. Toro absolutely gets it, which is why its e2500-THL and TS Ultra Buggy line will be welcomed by smart crews with open arms.

For their open-mindedness, those crews will be rewarded with machines powered by 7 kWh’s worth of Toro HyperCell lithium-ion battery. That’s good enough for up to eight hours of continuous operation, according to Toro – enough for two typical working shifts.

And, thanks to the Toro Ultra Buggies’ narrow, 31.5″ width, they can easily navigate man doors on inside jobs, as well, making them ideal for indoor demolition and construction jobs. A zero-turn radius and auto-return dump mechanism that ensures the tub automatically returns to the proper resting position make things easy for the operator, too.

Toro says that each of its small (for Toro) e2500 Ultra Buggy units can replace as many as five wheelbarrows on a given job site. Pricing is expected to start at about $32,000.

Electrek’s Take

Electric equipment makes job sites cleaner, quieter, and safer than they are under diesel or gas power – and as more municipal and private sector RFPs begin to enforce ZEV requirements and quiet hours, more and more viable electric alternatives to ICE power will start to show up on more and more job sites (regardless of who is in the White House).

GM is using California wildfires to pilot mobile DC fast chargers

GM is using California wildfires to pilot mobile DC fast chargers

GM has deployed three of its HYDROTEC hydrogen gensets to the Los Angeles area as a way to help generate power for EV drivers and emergency vehicles recovering from the devastating effects of the recent wildfires.

GM is providing a number of mobile charging solutions to Californians recovering from the recent wildfires – including a trio of Yoshi Mobility propane chargers capable of DC fast charging two EVs at once, a single biofuel powered mobile charging station from InCharge capable of DC fast charging five EVs, and three more of its in-house HYDROTEC hydrogen powered gensets.

“GM is extending targeted local support to our customers and employees who have been impacted by the California wildfires,” said Duncan Aldred, vice president global commercial growth strategies and operations. “We’re finding ways to help get people back on the road and using our resources to make a difference in the recovery in the weeks and months to come.”

The mobile charging station rollout is part of a broader response to the fires from GM that includes “planned” philanthropic contributions to nonprofits serving affected communities, employee giving campaigns to benefit the American Red Cross Los Angeles region and the California Fire Foundation, and a complimentary subscription to Crisis Assist Services, which enables customers with OnStar-equipped vehicles to get information about the fires, receive routing guidance, and access immediate emergency assistance from an OnStar advisor.

GM also says it’s providing customers with damaged or destroyed GM vehicles assistance toward the purchase or lease of a new GM vehicle, subject to certain terms and conditions, which may include certain qualifications and restrictions. The company will also help cover collision repair deductible costs for damage to GM vehicles incurred from the wildfires – again, subject to certain qualifications and restrictions.

Electrek’s Take

While it’s certainly commendable for GM to take steps in an effort to support wildfire victims, it feels like a company that made more than $19 billion in gross profits in 2023 (and over $20 billion in 2022; 2024 numbers aren’t out yet – but the company did well enough to spend more than $6 billion buying back its own stock) could have done better than announcing “planned” donations and asking its employees to pony up. By my math, GM shareholders could have given each of the 163,000 global employees the company had in 2023 a $36,000 one-time bonus in lieu of those stock buybacks.

That said, how many companies are doing nothing at all? Good on GM for trying, then – here’s hoping others step up, too.
