Save up to $803 on Blix e-bike bundles starting from $1,499 during 4th of July sales

Blix Bikes has launched its 4th of July sale that is taking up to $500 off its e-bike lineup while also giving you up to $303 in free add-on accessories. One of the notable standouts during this sale, is the Sol Eclipse Cruiser e-bike for $1,499 shipped. Normally fetching $1,899, we usually see this model cut down to $1,699 or more regularly $1,599 during most sales events. In the last year alone, we have only tracked it dropping to $1,499 during April’s spring sale, when it even beat out its Black Friday and Christmas sale rates by $100. Today’s deal is a surprise repeat of April’s savings, giving you a solid $400 markdown on top of three handy accessories – fenders for both tires, a rear-mountable cargo rack, and a front basket, all valued at $207 – for a grand total of $607 in savings. Blix also offers an extra $200 off any purchase of any two e-bikes by using the promo code RIDETOGETHER at checkout.

Blix’s Sol Eclipse Cruiser e-bike arrives sporting a slim and colorful beach cruiser design, with a 750W rear hub motor supported by the 614Wh capacity battery that both allow it to hit top speeds of 20 MPH for up to 45 miles on a single charge. It has five levels of pedal assistance watched over by the 12-magnet cadence sensor, as well as a throttle for pure electric action. Other features include a LED headlight, 27.5-inch by 2.4-inch puncture-resistant tires, mechanical disc brakes, a Shimano 7-speed derailleur, and an LCD display for real-time performance data and setting adjustments that also has a USB port to charge your devices as you ride. Plus, don’t forget the fenders, cargo rack, and front basket that quickly and easily attach to its modular design elements for a more enhanced ride.

Samsung Bespoke all-in-one smart electric washer and ventless dryer within post for Blix 4th of July sale

Samsung’s Bespoke all-in-one smart electric washer and ventless dryer at new lows starting from $1,600

Best Buy is offering the Samsung Bespoke AI All-in-One 5.3 cubic-foot Ultra Capacity Washer and Ventless Heat Pump Dryer for $1,999.99 shipped, with an included $150 Best Buy gift card along with your purchase. Down from its $2,800 list price, with an even greater $3,339 MSRP direct from Samsung, this is one of the best deals we’ve seen for this eco-friendly washer/dryer combo, currently beaten by a parallel deal for Costco members only that is offering the unit at $1,600. Anyone can benefit from the Best Buy deal though, which ultimately costs you $1,850 thanks to the gift card’s extra $150 in savings that you can use on future purchases. You’ll also find this unit available direct from Samsung at $1,999, with extra savings offers available. These are the three best rates that we have tracked, all of which beat our previous mention from May by at least $199 (technically $349 with the gift card).

This ENERGY STAR certified combination washer/dryer unit arrives sporting a sleek look and AI-supported functionality that makes laundry routines far less of a hassle than standard models. Alongside the smart controls you’ll get via the companion app, this appliance features AI OptiWash and AI Optimal Dry, which can not only detect the fabric types and their soil levels placed inside, but also adjust settings as needed during the cycles – saving you the headache of memorizing what cycle and settings are most desirable for particular articles of clothes.

It also boasts a large detergent tank that can hold and dispense up to 47 loads of detergent, or, by using the Flex One compartment, you can dispense 25 loads of detergent alongside 34 loads of softener. Regardless which way you choose, you won’t have to worry about refilling it before every new load – just throw in your clothes and go! One of its standout features that makes this an amazing upgrade to your home, is its ventless design that not only lets you install it anywhere that fits your convenience (and not just your home’s pre-determined layout), but its dual inverter heat pump technology makes it far more energy efficient than most other models, plus – working with its AI, the system can predict electricity costs and “reduce energy usage by up to 19%.”

Usually going for $1,000, since the new year began we’ve been seeing semi-regular discounts on this model during most sales events, often cutting costs down around $750, with occasional drops further to $700. Today’s deal comes in as a surprise 34% markdown that is taking savings further than ever before and landing it at the lowest price we have tracked.

The Hiboy MAX Pro Electric Scooter arrives equipped with a 650W motor alongside a 48V battery that will carry you up to max speeds of 22 MPH for up to 46.6 miles on a single charge. It has three riding modes to choose from (sport, drive, eco), with additional settings for customizable cruise controls as well, which is nice on those longer commutes with plenty of straightaways and open road. It also comes jam-packed with features like 11-inch pneumatic tires, both e-brakes and disc brakes, an LED headlight, sidelights, and a taillight, dual suspension, smart controls via the Hiboy app – including lock controls for security, a one-click folding design, and an integrated digital display for real-time data and setting adjustments.

BYD now has the world's largest car transport ship and it just set sail overseas

BYD's-largest-car-transport-ship

The BYD “Shenzhen” set sail on its first voyage overseas this week. With 9,200 parking spots, or about enough to fill 20 football fields, BYD’s new car transport ship is now the world’s largest.

BYD’s largest car carrier sets sail for Brazil

BYD’s Shenzhen is on its maiden voyage to Brazil after setting sail on April 27. The vessel is carrying over 7,000 new energy vehicles (NEVs), including electric vehicles (EVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs). It’s the largest single batch of NEVs exported from China so far.

The new vessel is BYD’s fourth car transport ship and the world’s largest, capable of carrying 9,000 vehicles. According to the company, that’s enough to fill about 20 football fields.

BYD launched its first car carrier, the Explorer No 1, in January 2024. It has already completed several trips to Germany, Spain, and Brazil.

Its second, the BYD Changzhou, set sail in December 2024, followed by the Hefei earlier this year. All three vessels can carry up to 7,000 vehicles, making the Shenzhen the largest so far.

The Shenzhen is named after the automaker’s hometown and demonstrates “BYD’s firm determination to promote sustainable development in Brazil.”

BYD is preparing to launch two more vessels, the Changsha and Xi’an. The Changsha is expected to launch soon, while the Xi’an was introduced on April 2.

The new car carriers will help accelerate BYD’s aggressive overseas expansion. In the first three months of 2025, the company sold over 206,000 NEVs overseas, more than double the number it sold last year.

BYD sells a wide range of vehicles in Brazil, including the low-cost Dolphin Mini, starting at around $20,000 (99,800 BRL). In October, it launched its first hybrid pickup truck, the Shark, starting at 379,800 BTL ($66,900).

Brazil is only one overseas market that BYD is targeting. BYD’s sales are expected to double in Europe in 2025, with significant growth in other key regions like Southeast Asia, Japan, Mexico, and South Korea, to name a few.

‘Tesla homes’ with solar roof and Powerwalls go on sale

'Tesla homes' with solar roof and Powerwalls go on sale

‘Tesla homes’ in a Houston neighborhood where all the homes have Tesla solar roofs and Powerwalls went for sale.

7 out of the 11 homes have reportedly already sold.

Tesla neighborhood is a term that is being used for new developments where all the homes integrate all or part of Tesla’s power ecosystem, including the Powerwall home battery pack.

The best example is a giant new development project in Austin, Texas, by Brookfield Asset Management and Dacra in which up to 12,000 new homes are to be built and offering Tesla solar roofs and Powerwalls.

However, since the announcement, it looks like only some of the homes in the new neighborhood have Tesla energy systems.

In 2022, Tesla also announced a similar project in Las Vegas.

A year later, the company claimed to have deployed “over 600 solar neighborhoods” worldwide, with a total capacity exceeding 100 MW.

One such ‘Tesla neighborhood’ is a small block of 11 townhouse homes featuring Tesla solar roofs and Powerwalls in Houston, Texas.

The homes were recently completed and went on sale, starting at $544,900.

Here are some pictures from the listings:

Utopia Homes, the developer behind the project, described the properties (via Chron):

Step into modern elegance expertly crafted by Utopia Homes. This property showcases groundbreaking Tesla Solar Roof Shingles and Power Wall technology, ensuring 100% energy security and eliminating electric bills for a truly sustainable lifestyle.

The house has proved popular according to the real estate agents, with 7 out of 11 homes already sold.

As we recently reported, Tesla’s solar roofs have proven to be a more expensive and niche product than the company previously presented.

Tesla has largely stopped discussing it, but it is still being deployed through some third-party installers, such as in this case, on new homes.

However, its Powerwall product remains a very popular solution for homeowners seeking greater energy independence and protection against outages, which have been a frequent problem in Texas.

More homeowners are turning to generators, and alternatives like home battery packs are gaining popularity.

Now is a great time to begin your solar journey. If you want to make sure you’re finding a trusted, reliable solar installer near you that offers competitive pricing, check out EnergySage. EnergySage is a free service that makes it easy for you to go solar – whether you’re a homeowner or renter. They have hundreds of pre-vetted solar installers competing for your business, ensuring you get high-quality solutions and save 20 to 30% compared to going it alone. Plus, it’s free to use, and you won’t get sales calls until you select an installer and share your phone number with them.

Your personalized solar quotes are easy to compare online, and you’ll get access to unbiased Energy Advisors to help you every step of the way. Get started here.

Vision Marine launches 2 new electric pontoon boats with 90 nautical miles of range

Vision Marine launches 2 new electric pontoon boats with 90 nautical miles of range

Vision Electric pontoon

Canadian electric propulsion specialist Vision Marine continues to graduate beyond advanced outboard motors into a provider of all-electric boats. This month, Vision introduced two new electric pontoon boats – the 12-passenger V24 and 15-passenger V30, each capable of a range up to 90 nautical miles.

Vision Marine Technologies ($VMAR) is a Canadian technology company with over 25 years of experience in the marine industry. The company made waves (literally) by introducing its E-Motion turnkey powertrain system, which it has since integrated into a catamaran speedboat, which set a speed record of 109 mph in 2022.

Since then, Vision has introduced six hp two-cruiser vessels – the Fantail 217 and Volt 180, each capable of transporting 10 passengers via its E-Motion technology. Most recently, Vision Marine has integrated the full power of its 180 hp electric powertrain technology into two additional vessels, both electric pontoon boats.

Earlier this month, the company officially began sales of the Vision V24 and V30, which you can view below.

Vision Marine brings power and range to electric pontoons

According to Vision Marine Technologies, orders for its two new electric pontoon boats are now open, and they are touting the same E-Motion technology that put the company on the map a few years ago.

The first model is the V24, a 12-passenger electric pontoon that is 24′ 8″ in length and has 180 hp. The ultra-quiet E-Motion powertrain is powered by a standard 43 kWh marine battery pack, offering 40 nautical miles (46 miles) of all-electric range on a single charge. For added range, Vision sells a version of the electric pontoon with a second battery pack, totaling 86 kWh and delivering up to 90 nautical miles (104 miles) of range.

While the V24 offers more of a classic attempt at the pontoon boat, Vision’s additional new vessel, the all-electric V30, is a tad sportier and provides room for more passengers aboard (15). This 30′ vessel features the same E-Motion powertrain options, complete with the same two battery configurations to offer the same ranges as the V24.

However, the V30 has additional features such as 4 x 6.5″ interior speakers and cool-touch seats. Both models feature an integrated onboard charger that supports both 120- 240V (30 to 50 amps) for seamless charging, no matter the dock plug while moored.

The Vision V24 starts at $99,995 for the standard battery pack version, while the V30 starts at a higher price of $139,995. As previously mentioned, both electric pontoon boats are available to order today.
