Segway Max G2 e-scooter with Apple Find My now $300 off, portable power stations, e-bikes, more
One of the first-ever discounts is now live on the new Segway Max G2 Electric Scooter. This recent debut with 22 MPH top speeds and Apple Find My integration is now $300 off and joined by ALLPOWERS’ R2500 solar generator at $1,039 – not to mention a slew of e-bike offers below the fold.
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.
Segway Max G2 Electric Scooter has Apple Find My tech
Segway is now offering its Segway Max G2 Electric Scooter for $999.99 shipped. You can also take an extra $30 off if you sign up for the company’s free rewards program. This is down $300 or more from the usual $1,300 price tag, marking only the second discount so far. It’s the best since a launch markdown back in May, too. Today’s discount is also matched over at Best Buy.
Serving as a successor to the original Max scooter, Segway’s new offering comes equipped with some notable improvements. This time around there’s now an increased 22 MPH top speed, adding a little extra oomph to its predecessor’s 18 MPH speeds. You can also expect to travel further on a single charge thanks to a 43-mile range that’s close to twice the distance as before. It has a 1,000W motor that can handle up to 22% inclines, with pneumatic wheels also leading to a smoother ride. Segway also packs in some newer smart features, like Apple Find My support for some added peace of mind.
Hover-1 Helios electric folding scooter hits $572
Amazon is offering the Hover-1 Helios Electric Folding Scooter for $572.19 shipped. Down from a list price of $700, with a 2023 high of $750 in March, this electric scooter only seemed to avoid lowering near or past its December 2022 low. Summer’s arrival brought with it greater discounts, with the end of summer seeing an even bigger drop to the new all-time low before promptly rising back to its MSRP for the month of September. Today’s deal is a $128 markdown, and among some of the lowest prices we have tracked.
Equipped with a 500W brushless motor and a 10Ah battery, this electric scooter is able to hit top speeds of 18 MPH and travel up to 24 miles on a single charge. Designed with a lower riding profile, its steering promises to be “more responsive than your average e-scooter,” with a smoother and more comfortable ride on any surface thanks to its dual-front suspension. It features a full LCD display that offers your current speed, battery levels, an odometer, trip mileage – all easy to see with its bright LCD backlights.
ALLPOWERS’ R2500 solar generator now lower than fall Prime Day
Amazon is offering the ALLPOWERS R2500 Solar Generator for $1,039.20 shipped, after clipping the on-page $300 off coupon and using the promo code 3LFB53ZY at checkout. Still riding the savings train from fall Prime Day last week, today’s deal is the second official discount outside the two-day event, beating both its special discount and our previous mention by $260, marking a new all-time low and saving you $560. ALLPOWERS’ own website still sits at the marked down $1,299, with Walmart offering the second-lowest price of $1,099.
With a 2,016Wh capacity and an output of 2,500W (peaking at 4,000W), this power station is able to supply energy to 99% of indoor and outdoor appliances, possessing four AC outlets, a 30A RV outlet, two PD 100W USB-C ports, four USB-A ports, two DC ports, and a car socket. It can be fully charged in just 1.3 hours with a wall outlet, and 2 hours with a compatible solar panel, for regular use of up to 10 years with the choice of three distinct charging modes: fast, standard, and silent. You can gain smart control through the ALLPOWERS app, while also ensuring the safe operation of important devices like computers, refrigerators, or CPAP machines during sudden power failures.

In case you needed another reason to feel jealous of Chinese car enthusiasts, the Chery Exeed VX C-DM three-row SUV is officially available for pre-order with 610 hp, 1,300 km (over 800 miles) of EREV range, and a starting price of $33,085 US.
State-owned Chinese automaker Chery recently launched the Exeed luxury brand, with its latest model, the Exeed VX C-DM plugin, making its international debut in Saudi Arabia February 23. At the same time, Chery opened the order books on the Exeed in China under the Exeed Lanyue C-DM name. And it is, in a word: impressive.
It’s really nice, you guys
Dubbed “the land business jet” on Exeed’s website, the Exeed VX C-DM pairs a 1.5L range-extending ICE motor with a three-speed DHT gearbox that integrates with a 165 kW e-motor. A second 175 kW electric motor sits in the rear axle, giving the big, seven-passenger SUV a combined peak power output of 455 kW (about 610 hp) and 920 Nm (nearly 680 lb-ft) of torque. That’s enough to rocket the big SUV from 0-60 mph in less than 5.0 seconds.
On the EV side of the ERVE equation, the Exeed VX C-DM packs a super-safe CATL NMC battery pack good for 180 km (about 112 miles) of CLTC range in electric mode – a far cry from the twenty-or-thirty-odd miles you’d get out of a conceptually similar Mazda CX-90 PHEV or Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe.
It’s nice inside, too
In addition to that power and performance Exeed VX C-DM buyers also get a high-end interior with quilted leather, massaging front seats, slick infotainment screens, panoramic glass roof, a 23-speaker Lion Melody sound system, and LED mood lighting. That high-tech interior sets the stage for more high-tech baubles, like 26 ADAS functions that include self-driving features, an SDG system to reduce collisions, a 540-degree (?) camera for easy parking.
That ADA system combines with a “high-performance integrated cage body” and 10 driver and passenger airbags to deliver a 5 Star C-NCAP crash test rating.
And, yes – al that goodness starts at the equivalent of just 239,900 yuan ($33,085 US) in China.
Eat your heart out.
Electrek’s Take
We can talk about tariff this and trade war that all day long. The real message here, however, is that China is objectively, unequivocally, and obviously years ahead of the US when it comes to American EVs in terms of manufacturing efficiency, battery and charging technology, and value. And, for as long as they have a system that takes the burden of pensions and healthcare and other basics of life off the manufacturer (and we don’t) they’ll probably keep pulling ahead.
Head on down to the comments and tell me convince me otherwise.

With revenue tumbling almost as fast as market share, Tesla stock is taking a pounding – exactly like CEO Elon Musk predicted! We’ve also got FSD rolling out in China, a German automation acquisition, and more on today’s red candlestick edition of Quick Charge!
We’ve also got some clarifying news at Mercedes-Benz, which is set to ditch its confusing EQ-based model alphanumerics and (God willing) their suppository-based styling language, too. Plus, Rivian launches a new upfit service to make it easier for fleet managers to order ready-to-work EVs, Ram ProMaster EV lives up to its promises with more options and a lower price tag, and a big solar deal goes down.

Lennox Residential HVAC has launched an extreme cold climate heat pump that warms a house with low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerant in temperatures as low as -20F.
It’s called the Dave Lennox Signature® Collection SL22KLV Cold Climate Heat Pump, and Lennox claims its efficiency levels are 150% higher at colder temperatures than standard heat pumps.
In 2022, Lennox was the first company to complete the first phase of the US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Residential Cold Climate Heat Pump (CCHP) Technology Challenge, and the SL22KLV is a souped up version of the unit developed for that challenge.
The heat pump, which pairs with a smart thermostat, uses a variable-speed compressor with Electronic Refrigerant Injection (ERI) to adjust the energy usage based on the outside temperature, which helps to lower energy costs. When the temperature drops, the ERI increases heating output efficiently.
The SL22KLV has efficiency ratings of up to 21.10 for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio 2 (SEER2), 13.2 for Energy Efficiency Ratio 2 (EER2), and 10.50 for Heating Seasonal Performance Factor 2 (HSPF2). It also features a precision-balanced, direct-drive fan and sound-dampening system for ultra-quiet operation as low as 58 decibels.
The heating capacity is between 21,600 Btuh and 60,000 Btuh, and the cooling capacity is between 22,000 Btuh and 56,000 Btuh.
Lennox’s new extreme cold heat pump uses the low global warming potential R-454B refrigerant, reducing environmental impact without compromising performance. It’s also eligible for the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit, a federal IRA tax credit for homeowners (and it’s still in place). There may also be other local utility and state incentives for installing a heat pump, so it’s definitely worth checking. It’s now available for order through local Lennox dealers.
