Then there’s the Broil King Crown Pellet 500 Pellet Grill that just dropped to $632, the lowest price since 2022. Plus, more hangover Green Deals still alive and well.

Super73 RX Electric Motorbike hits new $2,000 low
Best Buy is offering the Super73 RX Electric Motorbike for $1,999.99 shipped. Normally fetching $3,695, we’ve only seen one previous discount since the new year began – a repeat of 2023’s biggest price cut to $3,000 back in February. Today’s deal is a first that we haven’t seen in a while for this particular model – a brand new all-time low. It comes in as a massive 46% markdown that gives you a whopping $1,695 in savings and beats out our Black Friday and Christmas sale mentions. You’ll also find a more affordable option in the standard R model at $1,700, down from $3,295 for another new all-time low. You can learn more about it by heading below or reading through our feature.
Having basically originated the current moped-style/e-minibike craze that is becoming more and more popular throughout the US for the last handful of years, Super73’s RX motorbike combines the iconic stylings of the ’70s and ’80s with nice plump fat tires and a fully-electric heartbeat. Coming in a Carmine Red colorway, it is equipped with a 750W rear-hub motor paired alongside a 48V battery in order to reach 28 MPH top speeds for up to 40 miles when only using the throttle and up to 75 miles when using its pedal assistance. It fully recharges in just five to seven hours via a standard outlet, depending on conditions, and comes with a few exclusive features like fenders for both tires, and an LED headlight as well as an LED taillight. The big difference between it and its predecessor, the standard R model, is the lack of these extra features/add-ons.
Best Buy Mother’s Day sale takes up to $400 off EVs
Best Buy is having a 3-day Mother’s Day sale through the weekend, with several varying EVs benefitting from the discounts as well – up to $400 off, in fact. A standout amongst the bunch is the Segway Max G2 Electric Kick Scooter for $899.99 shipped. Normally fetching $1,300, it launched just last year at $800, which has remained the lowest price we’ve seen since, with very few minor discounts dropping up until today. This is a solid $400 off the going rate that lands it at the second-lowest price we have tracked, making this the best deal since its pre-order discount.
The Max G2 is the successor to the original Max scooter, with some notable upgrades that make it stand out from its predecessor – especially at this price. Equipped with a 450W motor (with 1,000W peak power that can handle up to 22% inclines) and a 551Wh battery, its speed has been increased to 22 MPH (over the Max’s 18 MPH speed), plus it has an extended mileage of 43 miles on a single charge – nearly twice the distance of the previous model. It sports Segway’s standard folding design for easier storage and transport, as well as four riding modes to choose from through the onboard LED display, with some saving power to extend travel ranges and others shrinking that range for the sake of speed and power. It’s also been given some notable features – including smart features – like self-sealing tires and Apple Find My for added peace of mind. Head below for more.

Broil King Crown Pellet 500 Pellet Grill hits lowest price of last 2 years at $632
Amazon is offering the Broil King Crown Pellet 500 Pellet Grill for $631.91 shipped. Regularly $1,199, but having spent the last three months keeping between $1,100 and $900, we’ve seen it go for much less in the past, though the $522 all-time low was last seen in 2022, with 2023 never seeing any price drop below $759. Today’s deal comes in as the lowest price we have tracked in the last two years, giving you a solid $567 markdown off the list price that beats our previous mention by $85 just in time for BBQ season. It even beats out Broil King’s website where it is discounted at a higher $1,099 rate.
You won’t need to worry about hooking up a gas line or running down to the nearest store to refill on your propane with this grill, which utilizes wood pellets that produce lower emissions than even charcoal. To start, you’ll have a temperature range of 200 degrees to 600 degrees Fahrenheit, which can be customized as you like through the LED digital control board or use its three quick-set temperature keys that let you smoke (225 degrees), roast (350 degrees), or grill (600 degrees). You’ll even get remote control settings through the companion app via your smartphone using Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, and it comes with temperature probes to make hitting your food’s ideal internal temperature far less stressful than just eyeing it. You’ll have plenty of room to work with too, as its 560 square-inches of cooking space can hold approximately 30 burgers at once – enough for everyone on your block and more than enough for family gatherings.

The US solar industry just delivered another huge quarter, installing 11.7 gigawatts (GW) of new capacity in Q3 2025. That makes it the third-largest quarter on record and pushes total solar additions this year past 30 GW – despite the Trump administration’s efforts to kneecap clean energy.
According to the new “US Solar Market Insight Q4 2025” report from Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) and Wood Mackenzie, 85% of all new power added to the grid during the first nine months of the Trump administration came from solar and storage. And here’s the twist: Most of that growth – 73% – happened in red states.
Eight of the top 10 states for new installations fall into that category, including Texas, Indiana, Florida, Arizona, Ohio, Utah, Kentucky, and Arkansas. Utah jumped into the top 10 this quarter thanks to two big utility-scale projects totaling more than 1 GW.
But the report also flags major uncertainty ahead. Federal actions, including a July memo from the Department of the Interior (DOI), have slowed or stalled the approvals pipeline for utility-scale solar and storage. Without clarity on permitting timelines, Wood Mackenzie’s long-term utility-scale forecast through 2030 remains basically unchanged from last quarter.
“This record-setting quarter for solar deployment shows that the market is continuing to turn to solar to meet rising demand,” said Abigail Ross Hopper, SEIA’s president and CEO. She added that strong growth in red states underscores how decisively the market is shifting toward clean energy. “But unless this administration reverses course, the future of clean, affordable, and reliable solar and storage will be frozen by uncertainty, and Americans will continue to see their energy bills go up.”
Two new solar module factories opened this year in Louisiana and South Carolina, adding a combined 4.7 GW of capacity. That brings the total new US module manufacturing capacity added in 2025 to 17.7 GW. With a new wafer facility coming online in Michigan in Q3, the US can now produce every major component of the solar module supply chain.
“We expect 250 GW of solar to be installed from 2025 to 2030,” said Michelle Davis, head of solar research at Wood Mackenzie and lead author of the report. “But the US solar industry has more potential. With rising power demand across the country, solar could do even more if current constraints were eased.”
SEIA also noted that, following an analysis of EIA data, it found that more than 73 GW of solar projects across the US are stuck in permitting limbo and at risk of politically motivated delays or cancellations.

The spiritual successor to the beloved Chevy Geo Tracker, production of the new-for-2026 electric Spark EUV has officially begun in Brazil with more than 200 miles of range.
That’s right, kids. To know the Chevy Tracker is to love the Chevy Tracker. The tiny, top-heavy Suzuki-based SUV combined bold colors, fun styling, (relatively) good fuel economy, and real off-road chops (especially in ZR2 trim) with an affordable price tag to make the Tracker an early favorite among the serious rock-crawling crowds.
Like, really
While it’s still too early to tell whether or not the all-new Chevy Spark EUV will come even close to that little proto-SUV, it seems we won’t have to wait much longer to find out – GM Authority reports that production of the 2026 Chevy Spark EUV has officially begun at Comexport’s Planta Automotiva do Ceará (PACE) plant, in the state of Ceará, Brazil.
GM Brazil invested the equivalent of $73 million to get the PACE factory ready to assemble GM’s modern, zero-emissions Chevy crossover for the South American and Middle Eastern markets – an investment big enough to earn a visit from Brazilian president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, who was on-hand for the December 3rd kickoff event.
“It’s not a car factory,” said Comexport Vice President and PACE shareholder, Rodrigo Teixeir. “(The) goal is to develop technology there, not simply assemble a vehicle.”
Production of the new Spark EUV began last week, with production of the equally new Chevy Captiva EV set to begin as early as Q1 of 2026.
2026 Chevy Spark EUV
The Made in Brazil Chevrolet Spark EUV is heavily based on the Chinese Baojun, and is powered by that vehicle’s single 75 kW (101 hp), 180 Nm (130 lb-ft) motor driving the front wheels. Power comes from the Baojun’s 42 kWh LFP battery that, with regenerative braking, is good for up to 360 km (220 miles) on the NEDC driving cycle.
Weirdly, the new Spark is also equipped with a 10.1″ infotainment screen and 8.8″ digital instrument cluster (above) that supports both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto standard – technology that GM claims lead to “unsafe” driver behaviors in North America.
Let us know what you think of the little electric SUV, and whether or not you think it would be a hit in the US (it would) in the comments.
