Are you prepping for this year’s big camping trip now that the weather is starting to warm up? Well, be sure to have Goal Zero’s Yeti 6000X portable power station packed too. Right now, you can get the expansive power station alongside two 300W solar panels for $1,360 off its normal rate. Down to an all-time low price of $6,175, the Yeti 6000X packs two grounded AC plugs, a 60W USB-C port, and much more, all without requiring a single drop of gas or oil to function. 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.

Goal Zero’s Yeti 6000X power station includes two solar panels

Goal Zero’s official Amazon storefront is offering its Yeti 6000X Portable Power Station with two Ranger 300 Solar Panels for $6,174.57 shipped. Down from a normal going rate of $7,535 at Amazon typically, today’s deal comes in at only the second time we’ve seen it this low. Not only does today’s deal deliver the best price to date, but also saves $1,360 in the process. In fact, this same kit still goes for full price direct from Goal Zero, for further comparison.

This portable power station really does it all. There are two included 300W solar panels which deliver a total of 600W of output from nothing more than the sun’s rays. The power station itself has a capacity of 6,071Wh and will be used to run the connected devices. The battery will keep things going when the sun goes behind clouds or at night, and the solar panels will provide electricity for use during the day. Whether you’re looking for an off-grid power solution or just something to keep on hand for backup if the lights go out, the Yeti 6000X is a solid choice. For outputs, you’ll find two grounded AC plugs with a combined supported load of 2,000W with peaks to 3,500W, alongside a pair of 60W and 18W USB-C ports and then a 2.4A USB-A port as well. On top of that, there’s various DC outputs on the Yeti 6000X including a 12V car plug so you can hook up additional devices with relative ease. Of course, no gas or oil is required here, and you can learn more about Goal Zero products in our previous coverage.

Save $180 on this 21-inch 80V Greenworks electric lawn mower at $400 (New 2023 low)

As part of this Best Buy flash sale that went live today, the retailer is now offering a well-timed discount on one of Greenworks’ more capable grass cutters. Its 21-inch 80V electric lawn mower arrives with $399.99 sale price through the end of the week and ships free for all shoppers. Down from $580 at Best Buy, it actually sells for $600 direct from Greenworks and is now down to the best price of the year. The $180 in savings marks one of the first offers we’ve seen on this all year, but does undercut a similar model we saw earlier in the spring by $20 for some added comparison. As the most capable electric lawn mower we’ve seen go on sale from Greenworks as of late, this model stands out with 80V of power that pairs with a larger 21-inch cutting deck. Alongside being self-propelled so you don’t have to work too hard, it also rocks a 4-in-1 design for bagging, mulching or side discharge – plus an added turbo mode for extra power. There’s of course no gas or oil to fuss with here either, so you can kickstart your mowing routine ahead of summer with a bit of a green touch.

Also on sale right now, this 14-inch Greenworks mower provides an even more affordable solution for cutting the grass without getting gas or oil involved. Down from the usual $280 going rate, Amazon has marked down the 24V solution down to $209.99. It won’t be quite as capable as the lead deal, but undercuts its price by nearly 50% to deliver an alternative electric mowing solution.

Save $200 on Segway’s latest F series Ninebot electric scooters from $450 at Amazon

Amazon now offers the new Segway Ninebot F40 Electric Kick Scooter for $599.99 shipped. Marking the second-best price to date, today’s offer is dropping down from the usual $800 going rate. With those $200 in savings attached, today’s offer clocks in at $4 under our previous mention from earlier in the spring and is now within $15 of the all-time low set just once before. Segway’s latest electric scooter arrives as the flagship of the F series lineup. It sports an 18.6 MPH top speed and can handle going 25 miles on a single charge all thanks to the 350W motor. This time around there are also new 10-inch pneumatic tires that pair with improved shock absorption for a smoother ride, as well as a front-wheel drum brake to complement its typical regenerative breaking features. You can learn all about the new folding scooter in our launch coverage right here, too.

Stepping down to the F30 form-factor, another one of Segway’s more recent electric vehicles is also on sale. This model also comes powered by a 300W motor, but is backed by a longer 18.6-mile range. It can handle the same 15.5 MPH top speeds as above, and can climb steep hills much like the model above. This one sits at $449.99 on Amazon right now, delivering not only a more affordable alternative to the F40 model above, but clocking in at $200 off the usual $650 going rate. It’s $130 under our previous mention, too.

This new Texas battery storage project runs on used EV packs

California-based B2U Storage Solutions is building a new battery energy storage facility east of San Antonio, Texas – and it’s going to be powered by used EV batteries.

The Bexar Corrilla project in Bexar County is B2U’s third grid storage site and its first in Texas. When complete later this year, it’ll have 24 megawatt-hours (MWh) of capacity and plug directly into San Antonio utility CPS Energy’s distribution system. B2U will repurpose around 500 end-of-life EV battery packs, housed in 21 modular cabinets, to store and dispatch power to the Texas grid.

The company has already deployed over 40 MWh of used EV batteries as battery storage in California. Its tech skips the expensive and energy-intensive remanufacturing process, thanks to a patented plug-and-play system that connects the batteries directly to the grid. The system’s certified to UL 9540 safety standards and uses AI to manage real-time power trading.

So why Texas? The state’s grid is notoriously volatile, and demand for backup is rising fast with more renewables and people plugging in. Batteries like these can help stabilize things when transmission can’t keep up.

B2U’s CEO Freeman Hall says the Texas expansion “is a significant strategic milestone” and shows how repurposed EV packs are becoming a go-to solution for grid and industrial-scale energy storage.

Over the next year, the company plans to build three more projects in Texas, bringing its total footprint in the state to 100 MWh. Add in its California solar + storage sites, and B2U expects to hit 150 MWh of repurposed EV batteries on the grid by mid-2026.

Acura just donated its largest vehicle fleet in brand history, and they're all EVs

Honda’s luxury brand is teaming up with The Nature Conservancy (TNC) to electrify its fleet of vehicles. Acura donated 75 electric ZDX SUVs, its largest vehicle donation to date, to support the mission. The new EVs will be used to get to and from remote conservation sites.

Acura donated 75 ZDX EVs to The Nature Conservancy

Acura is donating 75 ZDX SUVs to The Nature Conservancy (TNC) this year through its dealership network across the US.

The fleet will be used to support the organization’s missions, including fieldwork, community engagement, and conservation efforts in rural and remote areas.

As part of their +30-year partnership, Honda is donating another $1 million to expand charging options and support TNC’s transition to EVs.

Over 30 years ago, Honda and TNC collaborated for the first time to preserve the Big Darby Creek. Since then, the automaker has invested over $1 million to protect the aquatic system.

“The donation of these vehicles has significantly accelerated our efforts to electrify our fleet, reducing our carbon footprint and setting a powerful example of climate leadership,” Daniel Salzer, director of sustainability at The Nature Conservancy, said after receiving the donation.

The ZDX is the luxury brand’s first all-electric vehicle, and it’s been a surprise hit so far in the US. It’s currently one of the best-selling premium EVs in the US.

Through the first half of 2025, Honda has sold 10,355 Acura ZDX models, surpassing the Cadillac Lyriq, which is also based on the same Ultium platform.

The company is selling even more than it expected. Mike Langel, Acura’s president of national sales, told Automotive News earlier this year that the luxury brand expected to sell around 1,000 ZDX models a month in 2025.

Acura has offered some of the most generous discounts of any electric vehicle, reaching nearly $30,000 off in some states.

According to CarsDirect, the electric 2024 Acura ZDX A-Spec AWD is available to lease for as low as $299 per month.

The offer is for 24 months with $3,999 due at signing, but is limited to California, New York, Oregon, and other select states. The A-Spec AWD variant offers a range of 313 miles, while the RWD model has an EPA range rating of 304 miles. Honda’s electric SUV, the Prologue, is listed for lease starting at just $259 per month.

Hyundai's new IONIQ 6 takes the crown for Korea's longest-range domestic EV with 350 mi

The new and improved IONIQ 6 is smarter, more stylish inside and out, and can drive even further. With nearly 350 miles of driving range, the new Hyundai IONIQ 6 now leads as Korea’s longest-range domestic EV.

Hyundai’s new IONIQ 6 leads Korea’s longest-range EV

Hyundai’s electrified streamliner is back and better than ever. The IONIQ 6 has received its first refresh since its launch three years ago in September 2022.

The new IONIQ 6 features Hyundai’s 4th-generation batteries, unlocking nearly 350 miles (562 km) driving range on a single charge. That’s the longest among domestic electric cars in Korea, beating the Kia EV4, which has a range of up to 341 miles (549 km).

Hyundai fine-tuned the exterior fastback design for maximum efficiency. With a drag coefficient of just 0.21, it’s the most aerodynamic of any Hyundai, Kia, or Genesis vehicle.

Although still based on Hyundai’s “Mindful Cocoon” concept, the interior has been improved based on customer feedback. It now features a refined center console and incorporates “luxurious materials” into the three-spoke steering wheel and door trim.

Hyundai added new features, including a new Air Conditioning Occupancy Detection function. The system, a first for a Hyundai vehicle, can detect passengers and adjust the AC system.

Another new feature is Smooth Mode, designed to reduce motion sickness by providing less sensitive acceleration and deceleration.

The new IONIQ 6 is available with two battery options: 63 kWh and 84 kWh. With a range of up to 272 miles (437 km), the updated standard range model offers over 43 miles (70 km) more driving range. The extended-range battery is rated at 349 miles (562 km) range.

A Hyundai Motor Company official said, “The New Ioniq 6 is equipped with a 4th generation battery, securing the longest driving range among domestic electric vehicles.”

Despite the larger battery, the IONIQ 6 can still recharge from 10% to 80% in just 18 minutes with a 350 kW fast charger.

Hyundai launched the updated EV in Korea on Monday, priced from 48.56 million won ($35,000). That’s for the base E-Value+ standard range model.

The long-range Exclusive trim starts at 55.15 million won ($40,000) while the flagship Prestige N Line variant will run you 61.32 million won (61.32 million won). With government and local subsidies, Hyundai said the actual purchase price will be lower.

To celebrate the ultra-long-range capabilities of the new IONIQ 6, Hyundai is launching an ad campaign titled “the beginning of a new trend” in Korea.

For those in the US, Hyundai is expected to launch the new IONIQ 6 in early 2026. The current model is already rated with an EPA-estimated range of 342 miles.

With the updates, we could see it top 350 miles EPA-estimated range. Like the 2025 IONIQ 5, it’s also expected to arrive with a built-in NACS port to charge at Tesla Supercharger.

What are your thoughts on the updated model? Do you like the changes or does the IONIQ 6 still need some tweaking? Let us know in the comments.

Looking to test out Hyundai’s EV for yourself? With new models on the way, Hyundai is offering some sweet deals on its current lineup. The 2025 IONIQ 6 is available for lease starting at $169 per month. The 2025 IONIQ 5 may be an even better bet at just $179 per month.
