Aventon’s autumn sale is in full gear, with a selection of its e-bikes receiving discounts, like the Sinch.2 e-bike for $1,499. Down from $1,799, today’s deal is not the lowest we have tracked for this model, however, it does land amongst some of the best prices we have seen, saving you $300 off the going rate. You’ll mostly find this e-bike available at its MSRP on third-party retail sites, with plenty of knock-off and copy-cat brands peppered in as well. While some sites may offer matching or even lower rates at some point in the future, for now this sale is the best opportunity to grab this reliable e-bike for a more affordable price. You can learn more by checking out our launch review.
Equipped with a 500W rear-hub motor (with 750W peak) and a 14Ah battery capacity, this upgraded e-bike is able to cruise up to top speeds of 20 MPH with a travel range of up to 55 miles on a single charge. Like all of Aventon’s e-bikes, this one comes with a pedal assist function – more specifically a torque sensor to measure the amount of force applied to pedaling in order to provide appropriate assistance. Built with a folding frame in the same manner as its previous model, it also comes with a wide array of features and accessories to further improve upon past designs like the newly added fenders over each of the wheels to combat adverse elements, as well as the rear storage rack to ensure what you carry with you, stays with you.

The Inster EV is currently Hyundai’s most affordable electric SUV. With starting prices under $30,000, the compact EV is already making inroads in overseas markets.
Hyundai’s most affordable electric SUV invades Germany
After launching earlier this year, the Inster EV quickly became one of the top-selling electric cars in the heart of Europe.
In the first half of the year, Hyundai’s electric SUV was the best-selling electric small car in Germany. The Inster has now ranked among the top 10 best-selling EVs in the region for the third straight month with over 1,000 registrations.
With another 1,130 registrations in July, Hyundai’s most affordable electric SUV has now secured 6,300 registrations through the first seven months of 2025.

“We’re delighted that Germany’s best-selling electric small car is a Hyundai,” said Ulrich Mechau, President & CEO of Hyundai Motor Germany.
Hyundai’s regional boss added that “With the Hyundai INSTER, we’re hitting the right note – because even in electric mobility, there must be affordable cars with an excellent price-performance ratio.”

Led by strong demand for EVs, Hyundai placed third among importers in Germany. Through July, electric vehicles account for 28% of Hyundai’s registrations in Europe’s largest auto market, a 10% increase compared to the same period last year.
Hyundai pointed out that it’s significantly outpacing the German electric vehicle market, which accounts for about 17.5% of registrations.

The Inster EV is Hyundai’s most affordable electric SUV in Germany, starting at 23,900 euros ($28,000). It features a driving range of up to 370 km (230 miles) on the WLTP cycle, fast charging (10% to 80% in 30 minutes), and advanced features such as vehicle-to-load (V2L).
Hyundai’s EV lineup in Germany includes the Inster EV, Kona Electric, IONIQ 5, and soon the refreshed IONIQ 6 and new IONIQ 9 will be launched.

In the overall European market, the Inster EV was the 19th best-selling EV in June. With 3,322 registrations, it outsold the Dacia Spring (3,264) and the Toyota bZ4X (2,848).
Hyundai sells the Inster EV under the name Casper Electric in its home market of South Korea. Unfortunately, the low-cost electric SUV is not set to launch in the US.
For those of you in the US, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 remains one of the most affordable EVs on the market. With leases starting at just $179 per month, it may just be the best EV deal available. The IONIQ 5 is coming off its best sales month in the US yet, with 5,818 units sold in July.

Tesla used car prices continue to plummet, while the average used car price is increasing. Despite being considered a premium brand, used Tesla vehicles are now cheaper than the used car sale price.
However, when the market started to recover in March 2025, Tesla’s used car prices didn’t. It continued to drop.

In fact, it has now dropped so much that the average used Tesla vehicle costs less than the average used car on Car Gurus:
This is unprecedented. Although the brand has taken a significant hit over the last year, Tesla is still regarded as a premium brand in the industry. The fact that its average used car sale price would dip below the industry average, which includes inexpensive mass-market vehicles, is quite exceptional.
Used Tesla car prices are now down 4.59% year-over-year, compared to the market average being up 1.22%:

All Tesla vehicles are down year-over-year, with the Cybertruck unsurprisingly leading the charge.
However, Cybertruck has started to recover in the last few months, along with Model 3.
The Model Y, which is by far Tesla’s most popular model by volume, is dragging the average down as it continues to fall:

Electrek’s Take
Many Tesla owners have been selling their used vehicles and switching to new brands, increasing the supply and putting pressure on prices.
I expected this, but I didn’t expect the pressure to be so great that prices would dip below the average used prices.
This is significant.
It’s proof that the Tesla brand has taken a massive reputational hit and there’s no clear recovery in sight.
