Amazon Basics’ level 2 32A EV charger delivers 25 miles of range per hour at new low of $291.50 in New Green Deals
Are you still using a 110V outlet to charge your EV at home? It’s time to change that. With Amazon Basics’ level 2 32A charging station, you’ll get a 25-foot cord that’s ready to power any attached EV with or without an adapter. The J1772 plug is compatible with most EVs on the market from the factory, and those that aren’t can use a simple adapter to charge. It’ll add about 25 miles of range per hour to your EV, which gives you 200 miles of driving when charged for eight hours overnight. On sale right now for $291.50, this level 2 EV charger from Amazon is down to a new all-time low and at least 20% off its normal going rate. 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.

Charge your EV with Amazon Basics’ Level 2 power station
Amazon is currently offering its Amazon Basics Level 2 32A EV Charging Station for $291.63 shipped. Down from a normal rate of up to $612, it’s fell in price a few times this year down to $315 in February and then $365 this month. Outside of that, today’s deal actually comes in with at least 20% in savings and is actually up to 52% below its normal rate. This sale also marks a new all-time low that we’ve tracked. For further comparison, we did see the 18-foot model fall as low as $153.50 back in April. If you have an EV at home and are tired of using a standard 110V outlet to charge, this is a great way to remedy that.
As a level 2 charging station, you’ll find 240V 32A capacity here with an attached 25-foot cable to plug into your EV at home. Amazon Basics says that it’ll add around 25 miles of range per hour, which adds up to 200 miles of range if plugged in for eight hours overnight. This is up to six times faster than a standard wall outlet, and the hardwired station can be installed either indoors or outside, making it convenient to use whether you have a garage or not. It doesn’t need a plug or outlet either, as you just directly wire the system into your panel for it to get power. So, if you’re looking for a way to charge at home, then this is about as budget-friendly as it gets from a name brand with fast speeds.
Google’s latest Nest Smart Thermostat hits new $50 low in Geek Squad Cert. Refurb condition
Best Buy is offering the Geek Squad Certified Refurbished Nest Smart Thermostat for $49.99 shipped. Originally $129, and going for $100 on sale at Amazon right now, today’s deal comes in at $50 below our last new condition mention and beats our previous refurbished deal by an additional $5. That makes today’s discount a new all-time low that we’ve tracked. While typically smart thermostats can cost a pretty penny and run for $100 or more most of the time, this is your chance to score one at a relative bargain.
This smart thermostat is compatible with most AC and heat systems as it works without a C wire in most homes. A great addition to any home over the summer, you’ll find that this smart thermostat can turn the AC up whenever you leave the house for work and ensure it’s properly conditioned before you return. Add to that smartphone and voice control, as well as having the reverse ability for automatic climate in the winter, and you have a full package of energy-saving capabilities here. And, in an expected move, the Nest Thermostat recently got updated with Matter integration back in April, bringing HomeKit compatibility into the mix. Ships with a 90-day warranty. Dive into our hands-on review to learn more.
Segway’s flagship electric SuperScooter GT2 sees $700 summer discount to $3,300 low
Amazon is now offering the best price yet on Segway’s latest flagship electric scooter. The new SuperScooter GT2 first hit the scene last fall as one of the most impressive EVs of its category on the market, and now it’s even more impressive at an Amazon all-time low. Courtesy of the retailer, the new Segway SuperScooter GT2 sells for $3,299.99 shipped. Down from $4,000, you’re looking at a new low that’s $700 off. It’s $200 under our last mention from April, and one of the first chances in 2023 to save.
Segway’s new SuperScooter GT2 arrives centered around a more capable design with 6,000W 2-wheel drive motor system. There’s a massive 1,512Wh battery that powers the experience, which allows you to hit up to 43.5 MPH top speeds while accelerating from 0 to 30 MPH in just under 4 seconds. That pairs with a 55.9-mile range, integrated transparent OLED display in-between the handlebars, suspension system for a smoother ride, and dual hydraulic disc brakes.
For comparison, Segway’s other flagship SuperScooter, the GT1, still manages to sell for less than the lead deal. It may clock in at retail price, but is still $500 less than the higher-end model above. It now sells for $2,800 on Amazon, delivering much of the same design along the way. There are some trade-offs for the more affordable price, like a 3,000W motor that can only travel 43 miles on a single charge. But if you need a less capable way to get around the neighborhood or want to fully embrace EV tech this summer, the SuperScooter GT1 is still up to the task with 37 MPH top speeds.

Oil prices fell sharply Tuesday after President Donald Trump said China can keep buying oil from Iran, a sign that the U.S. is easing its maximum pressure campaign on the Islamic Republic in the wake of a ceasefire with Israel.
Global benchmark Brent fell $3.33, or 4.66%, to $68.15 per barrel by 10:18 a.m. ET. U.S. crude oil was last down $3.18, or 4.64%, to $65.33 a barrel. Prices closed 7% lower on Monday as the oil market bet that the conflict in the Middle East was winding down.
“China can now continue to purchase Oil from Iran,” Trump said in a post on his social media platform Truth Social. “Hopefully, they will be purchasing plenty from the U.S., also. It was my Great Honor to make this happen!”
Trump threatened in May to bar any country buying Iranian oil from doing business with the U.S. China purchases the vast majority of the 1.7 million barrels per day that Iran typically exports, according to data from Kpler.
Oil prices have tumbled to levels last seen before Israel started bombing Iran on June 13, as investors now believe the risk is low that a major supply disruption will occur the Middle East.
The U.S. decision to join Israel’s campaign and bomb three key nuclear sites in Iran over the weekend initially triggered fears that Tehran might try to choke off oil exports from the Persian Gulf in retaliation.
Instead, Tehran launched a missile attack on a U.S. airbase in Qatar that left no casualties, providing an offramp from further escalation. Trump announced a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran shortly afterward.
The ceasefire teetered on the brink of collapse early Tuesday as Trump accused both Iran and Israel of violating the agreement shortly after it went into effect. The president demanded that Jerusalem and Tehran adhere to the ceasefire, reserving unusually harsh words for Israel.
“I’m not happy with Israel,” Trump told reporters en route to a NATO summit in the Netherlands. “I’m not happy with Iran either but I’m really unhappy if Israel” continues its bombing campaign Tuesday.
Throughout the conflict, traders feared that Israel might target the 3.3 million bpd of crude oil that Iran produces, or that the Islamic Republic might lash out by targeting energy infrastructure in the Gulf nations, including Iraq.
Investors also watched if Iran would try to close the Strait of Hormuz linking the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman. The strait, used to transport 20% of the world’s crude, is a key route for Iranian and other Middle Eastern shipments, including Saudi Arabia, the world’s largest oil exporter, the United Arab Emirates, Iraq, Kuwait and Bahrain.
Toyota is still planning to build a three-row electric SUV in the US, but it won’t be in Indiana as planned. In a sudden shift of plans, Toyota will build it alongside a second electric three-row SUV as it consolidates EV production in the US.
Toyota to build two new three-row EV SUVs in the US
It has been over two years now since Toyota first unveiled the three-row electric SUV, which was expected to be a key part of its comeback efforts in the US EV market.
After funneling another $1.4 billion into its Princeton, Indiana, manufacturing plant last April, Toyota said it was preparing to assemble the larger SUV at the facility. The investment was also expected to go toward an assembly line for lithium-ion batteries, supplied from its new EV battery plant in North Carolina.
As part of its efforts to streamline production in the US, Toyota now plans to build the new EV in Kentucky, alongside a new Subaru three-row electric SUV.
According to AutoNews, Toyota said the move is designed to “improve manufacturing efficiencies and better serve customers based on market demand.”
“As previously announced, Toyota plans to produce two all-new, three-row battery electric SUVs in the US. Toyota will now assemble both vehicles at Toyota Kentucky,” the company explained in a statement.
Toyota plans to ramp up Grand Highlander production in Indiana with a new assembly line dedicated to the larger SUV.
Last year, Grand Highlander sales increased by nearly 50% in the US, as demand for the smaller Highlander fell by 47%. The trend has continued this year, with Grand Highlander sales up 2% through March, while Highlander sales have declined 62.5%.
Despite consolidating production, Toyota still has several new EVs set to launch in the US soon. Its updated bZ electric SUV (previously named the bZ4X) is arriving at US dealerships later this year.
Toyota upgraded it with an increased driving range, a much better style, and an added NACS port, allowing you to recharge at Tesla Superchargers.
Next year, the smaller Toyota C-HR and off-road bZ Woodland electric SUVs will arrive. By mid-2027, Toyota plans to have seven EVs at US dealerships, including under the Lexus brand. Subaru is set to introduce three new EVs by 2026, including the new Trailseeker SUV.
Toyota also announced plans to raise vehicle prices in the US this week. The price hikes will impact Toyota and Lexus brand models built after July 1.

A new electric hub motor just dropped at Eurobike 2025, and it’s a big deal – mainly because it’s so small. Developed through a partnership between Moving Magnet Technologies (MMT), Swiss mechatronics firm Sonceboz, and French e-bike software company eBikeLabs, the new motor aims to set a new benchmark for premium urban e-bikes.
And based on the specs alone, it just might.
The motor delivers up to 70 Nm of torque, allows for regenerative braking, and has an impressive 22:1 gear ratio. It also includes a built-in torque sensor, allowing e-bikes employing the motor to take advantage of a more natural, responsive pedaling response.
Despite the high torque rating and built-in tech, the motor weighs under 2.5 kg (5.5 lbs), which is incredibly light for a high-torque hub motor, especially one designed for urban performance and connected tech features.
Designed for single-speed e-bikes and fully integrated with eBikeLabs’ eBikeOS software platform, this is the kind of system that manufacturers building the next wave of sleek, minimalist city e-bikes are likey to seek. And with regenerative braking, anti-theft immobilization, and smart ride customization all built in, it’s a feature-rich package in a surprisingly compact form factor.
Sonceboz, known for zero-defect manufacturing in the automotive world, is leading the industrialization process at its automated Swiss production facilities. According to the team, the motor is currently in B-sample testing with a yet-unnamed premium urban bike brand, with commercial availability targeted for early 2027.
“With this hub motor, Sonceboz, MMT, and eBikeLabs aim to set a new benchmark for premium urban bikes,” said Damien Wittwer, Division Director at Sonceboz. “Our mechatronics expertise ensures high-quality, reliable production ready for the most demanding brands. We don’t just build motors—we empower you to stand out in a market that demands smarter, quieter, more integrated urban mobility.”
The collaboration makes sense. MMT brings the motor design and electromagnetic magic, Sonceboz brings the industrial firepower, and eBikeLabs provides the software layer, eBikeOS, which adds real-time diagnostics, theft alerts, ride tracking, and personalized performance tuning. The system also includes a modular SP Connect mount for phones, allowing full app integration during rides.
On a personal note, I previously tested eBikeOS from eBikeLabs on a sample bike at Micromobility Europe and came away quite impressed with the performance.
This isn’t the first time eBikeLabs has pushed into the high-end e-bike space. Their software already powers the Virvolt 2000 motor used by Shwette’s cargo e-bikes, and their partnership network includes brands like Cowboy and Vefaa. But the new motor signals a tighter integration of motor hardware and software, engineered together from day one, a rarity in the increasingly fragmented e-bike market.
If the specs hold up and the industrial ramp goes smoothly, this could be one of the most important new components in the premium city e-bike world over the next few years. With anti-theft tech baked in, seamless app integration, and impressive torque in a tiny package, it’s exactly the kind of invisible innovation that makes a good e-bike feel like magic.
And if you’re at Eurobike this week, it’s on display in two locations, both in Hall 8, Booth I21 (with Sonceboz) and Hall 12.1, Booth A21 (with eBikeLabs). Definitely worth a closer look.
