Today’s Green Deals are featuring two big early Christmas sales, the first of which is coming from EcoFlow through most of the month with up to 55% in savings that are continuing and beating out Black Friday rates, like the DELTA 3 Plus Portable Power Station that starts at a $649 low, with many others. Riding up behind it is Rad Power’s early holiday savings with e-bike price cuts, free gear and extra battery promos, accessory discounts – and even the return of the RadCity 5 Plus Step-Through Commuter e-bike at $1,499. We also spotted some new and returning low rates on four Goal Zero Yeti Portable Power Stations starting from $336, while the budget-friendly Worx 40V 20-inch Cordless Electric PowerShare Snow Blower drops back to the $300 2024 low. Plus, all the other hangover Green Deals are in the links at the bottom of the page, like yesterday’s early holiday sale from Heybike, and more.

EcoFlow decks the halls with up to 55% savings on power stations, bundles, more from $45 in early Christmas sale

EcoFlow has launched its early Christmas sale that will run through December 16 and is taking up to 55% off its power banks, power stations, solar generator bundles, home backup bundles, and accessories – with some free gifts and bonus savings thrown in too. One notable standout undercutting its Black Friday pricing is the DELTA 3 Plus Portable Power Station which is down at $649 shipped. Normally running you $799 at full price, we’ve seen a few varying discounts since this newer model was released back in September, with October’s Prime Day event taking the price down to the $649 low while the recent Black Friday sale only saw it go to $699. That low price is returning here today, saving you $150 and giving you a second chance at the lowest rate we have tracked. There are even a few bundle options here, with the power station coming with a 220W solar panel for $949, down from $1,448, or two 220W panels and a protective bag at $1,199, down from $2,166, or you can grab it with a 800W alternator charger for $999, down from $1,398.

As is always the case with EcoFlow’s major sales events, there are some bonus savings that make larger-sized purchases much more enticing, as you’ll receive a free RIVER 600 power station with orders over $2,000 or a free RIVER Pro power station with orders over $5,000. There are also some members-only benefits too, with a redemption of EcoCredits scoring 5% in additional savings, as well as getting 2x the EcoCredits with purchases on all sitewide products.

One of the newest models under EcoFlow’s flag, the DELTA 3 Plus power station delivers a modular backup power design on a smaller scale with a base 1,024Wh LiFePO4 capacity that you can invest further into and expand up to 5kWh by using expansion batteries from the DELTA 3, DELTA Pro 3, DELTA 2 Max, or DELTA 2 stations. You’ll be equipped with the means to power most appliances here, as it dishes out constant power up to 1,800W (surging to 3,600W) through its 13 ports thanks to its X-Boost tech, which allows for appliances requiring 2,600W being better supported than with older stations.

The benefits from its X-Boost tech doesn’t stop there either, as it gives the unit five fast-charging ways to refuel its battery. Plugged into a standard wall outlet will return the battery to full in only 56 minutes, which matches the time the brand’s Smart Generator 4000 would take to do the same. Using the alternator charger you can expect a full battery in 1.3 hours of driving, or do things in 70 minutes when utilizing its max 1,000W solar input. It even comes with multi-charge options, taking an hour to refill the battery when pairing its solar charging capabilities with a wall outlet.

Rad Power brings its RadCity 5 Plus Commuter e-bike back to market at $1,499 in early Christmas sale

Rad Power has launched its early Christmas sale through December 12 that is offering e-bike price cuts, free gear and extra battery promotions, accessory discounts – all to be shipped to you before Christmas day to go under the tree.

My mom got a hold of this model well before it was “discontinued” and every time I’ve visited since, I spend hours cruising around the streets of their town on it – even preferring it for errands over my car. The RadCity 5 Plus cruises back onto the scene with a 750W rear hub motor that is powered by the semi-integrated 672Wh battery, providing you with up to 50+ miles on a single charge with its five levels of pedal assistance (plus a zero-level) at top speeds of 20 MPH.

Whether you’re in need of portable backup power while on outdoor ventures or even at job sites, these 6th-generation models are designed to support your devices and small appliances when they need more juice.

Worx snow blower

Worx’s budget-friendly 40V 20-inch cordless electric PowerShare snow blower returns to $300 2024 low

Amazon is offering homeowners an affordable means to clear snow from your walkways this winter with Worx’s 40V 20-inch Cordless PowerShare Snow Blower for $299.99 shipped. Carrying a $400 price tag recently since falling from its $440 MSRP over the summer, we last saw this same price pop up just after New Year’s Day for a short period before spending the rest of 2024 keeping above $319. While we have seen in go lower in past years, you’re still looking at a solid $100 slashed off its tag here at the lowest price we have tracked this year – plus, it delivers snow-clearing support at a more budget-friendly price than many heavier-duty competitors.

This Worx snow blower’s brushless motor comes powered by two PowerShare 20V batteries (compatible across its multi-tool ecosystem) in order to clear out a 20-inch wide path around your home and tossing the built up snow up to 20 feet out of the way with its 180-degree rotating chute. You’ll be able to see during early-morning and late-night clearings thanks to the two LED headlights, with the chute’s one-touch deflector allowing for quick and easy adjustments to its throwing height and distance. When you’re all done with the job, you can fold up the handle to save some extra space.

Stellantis reveals stylish, affordable, capable EV – why can’t the US have it?

Stellantis reveals stylish, affordable, capable EV – why can't the US have it?

Chrysler parent company Stellantis is sinking billions on electric Jeeps and Chargers that no one wants, but the they’ve developed market-leading EVs in Europe, and this latest, £36,995 DS Automobiles No4 is exactly the sort of electric crossover that could rejuvenate the brand’s American prospects. The only question now is: why won’t they bring it here?

Both the Dodge and Jeep-branded Stellantis EVs are being offered with huge discounts in a bid to generate some kind of market interest, but the company’s American product and marketing teams seem to be deeply confused about what the market actually wants. Over in Europe, though, Stellantis’ EVs are hot sellers – and this latest five-passenger crossover from the company is expected to steal even more sales from the Model Y.

The new all-electric No4 E-Tense model from Stellantis’ French brand DS Automobiles will be offered at three trim levels starting with the Pallas at £36,995 (approx. $48K US), rising to £39,160 for the Pallas+ and topping out at £41,860 (approx. $56K US, before incentives get applied) for the range-topping Etoile. 

All three trims use a front-mounted electric motor rated at 213 hp, drawing from a 58.3‑kWh battery pack. That setup delivers up to 280 miles on the WLTP cycle (about 240 miles by EPA estimates). That feels like a lot of miles from a relatively small battery, aided no doubt by the DS No4’s aerodynamic. Inside the No4’s sculpted flanks is enough room for five adults and a bunch of their stuff, as well as an incredibly sexy dash and infotainment layout that (in the official press photos, at least) seems positively slathered in Alcantara (think “vegan suede”).

With 120 kW fast charging capabilities, the No4’s battery pack can replenish from 20 to 80 percent in under 30 minutes. Thanks to built‑in V2L/V2X tech, the No4 can also supply power back to external devices.

Electrek’s Take


I think it would be a hit. As for why the marketing gurus at whatever’s left of the old Chrysler corporation seem to think an electric muscle car that no one asked for or a Dodge-branded Alfa Romeo that no one will ever ask for is a better use of their marketing dollars – that’s simply beyond me.

Maybe you guys know? Check out these photos of the new DS No4, then scroll on down to the comments and let us know what you think of Stellantis’ US product plans, and whether or not they messed up canceling the Airflow after all.

These 3 August EV price drops are up to $150/month, but hurry!

These 3 August EV price drops are up to 0/month, but hurry!

The clock is running out on some of the best EV lease deals of the year. With the 25% tariff on imported EVs already hitting and the federal tax credit set to vanish after September 30, automakers are dangling some serious end-of-the-month offers. If you’ve been waiting to go electric, now’s the time. CarsDirect spotted three August EV price drops worth a look, but you’ll need to move fast, because these deals won’t last past the holiday weekend.

2025 Mercedes EQE SUV: $62 per month price drop

Mercedes is sweetening the pot on its EQE SUV as it works to move inventory. The 2025 Mercedes-Benz EQE 350+ SUV can now be leased for $629 a month for 36 months with $7,923 due at signing. That works out to an effective $849 a month – a $62 drop from previous deals. For a nearly $80,000 luxury EV, that’s not a bad offer.

But timing is key. The federal EV tax credit disappears next month, and Mercedes is set to pause US EV orders on September 1, which could make finding the right model tougher. Current incentives run through September 2, so if you’ve been eyeing an EQE, lock one in now before the market shifts.

2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz: $90 per month price drop

As of August 22, the 2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz picked up a hidden $3,000 Dealer Lease Bonus – that is, dealer cash that only shows up if you lease.

That incentive knocks the Pro S trim down to $589 a month for 36 months with $5,999 due at signing. Do the math, and that’s $756 a month effective cost – a $90 drop from the earlier $846 offer. With $10,500 in total savings, this is the best deal yet on the ID. Buzz and one of the standout Labor Day EV lease offers.

Hyundai-IONIQ-5-N-lease

2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 N: $150 per month price drop

Hyundai just slashed the price on its most powerful EV yet. The 2025 IONIQ 5 N can now be leased for $549 a month for 36 months with $3,999 due at signing (10,000 miles a year). That works out to an effective $660 a month – a huge $150 drop from July.

For a track-ready performance car, that’s a steal. And unlike most performance machines, the IONIQ 5 N doesn’t guzzle gas – you can just plug it in overnight at home. Current offers run through September 2.

Terberg heavy duty electric yard truck gets to work in the UK

Terberg heavy duty electric yard truck gets to work in the UK

UK delivery firm DPD is putting one of Terberg’s heavy-duty electric yard tractors to the test at its giant, Oldbury, UK logistics hub – and its findings will help DPD shape a cleaner, more sustainable fleet strategy for the future.

DPD operates a fleet of over 50 yard hostlers (or “tugs” in the UK) to perform all trailer movements across its five sorting hubs in Oldbury, Smethwick, and Hinckley. Currently, those yards are serviced by a fleet of diesel tractors – but the company is interested in decarbonizing and “keen” to understand how EVs could be deployed across the fleet in the longer term.

“Tugs are the lifeblood of our hub operation, performing all trailer movements efficiently and safely across the five sites,” says Tim Jones, Director of Marketing, Communications, and Sustainability at DPD UK.

To that end, the company has deployed a Royal Terberg YT203-EV fitted with a pair of 78 kWh batteries, but it can be spec’ed up to 236 kWh and an almost unbelievable 105 tonne GCVWR. Even with “just” 156 kWh, the Terberg is able to work nearly a full 24 hours between charging – capability that is on par with diesel. At least.

“Terberg DTS are proud to be able to assist DPD on the way to Net Zero (emissions) and it was great to be able to work with DPD’s drivers and demonstrate what the YT203-EV can do in their own yard,” explains Peter Giles, Head of UK Logistics Sales at Terberg DTS. “Their aim is to be one of the leaders in the march to a more sustainable fleet future and they have already amassed a lot of knowledge and experience working with EVs. We know just how versatile and effective the vehicle is, but every operation is slightly different and working on-site with their own drivers means DPD can get really meaningful feedback from those who know the job better than anyone.”

Several operators will be trying out the YT203-EV across different shifts and operations to get feedback. So far, however, they seem hyped. “The electric tug (performs) incredibly well,” adds Jones. “Our drivers were really impressed, especially with the ease of use and driver comfort.”

Electrek’s Take

Whether it’s Terberg, Tico, or Orange EV, terminal tractors are an ideal application for electrification, and companies like DHL have spent more than a decade proving that out. And now that DPD is giving these HDEVs a chance, expect to see a whole lot more of them getting deployed soon.
