Today’s Green Deals feature some hidden gems buried beneath all the bigger sales and events that are still happening through the approaching holiday. First, we have GoTrax’s Z4 PRO Foldable e-bike hitting a new $799 low, as well as a one-day-only sale on the brand’s XR PRO Commuting Electric Scooter at a new $330 low. We also have some solid savings on popular tools, like the EGO Power+ 56V 21-inch cordless dual-port self-propelled mower at its $623 2024 low alongside Husqvarna’s 330iKE Combi Switch lawn edger bundle hitting a new $240 low. Plus, all the other hangover Green Deals are in the links at the bottom of the page, including last week’s best savings across various categories of eco-friendly gear, which you can find in our Electrified Weekly roundup coverage.

Head below for other New Green Deals 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.

GoTrax’s class 3 Z4 PRO foldable e-bike provides 50 miles of travel at new $799 low

Best Buy is offering the best rate yet on the GoTrax Z4 PRO Foldable e-bike for $799 shipped. Normally fetching $1,300 since the tariffs from June raised the price from $1,100, we saw very few discounts over the year, mostly to $1,000. While we did see it go as low as $860, that price is getting beaten out here today with a $501 price cut that lands it at a new all-time low. You won’t find this model at Amazon or direct from GoTrax either, with Best Buy being the primary retailer to offer it. Don’t worry though, replacement parts aren’t hard to come by should anything ever go awry.

The GoTrax Z4 PRO e-bike makes a great affordable means to solve commuting concerns, with its 28 MPH top speed and 50-mile travel range thanks to the 500W rear-hub motor and the removable 48V battery. Built to “go where other e-bikes can’t…even when you aren’t riding,” the primary draw of this model is its foldable frame, which makes saving storage space far easier when it is not in use. It also features off-road fat tires, a front wheel suspension, fenders on both wheels, a rear storage rack, and a display that gives you real-time data like speed, distance traveled, battery levels, and so on.

EGO Power+ dual-port mower

Tackle more ground with the EGO Power+ 56V 21-inch cordless dual-port self-propelled mower at $623 2024 low

Amazon is offering the EGO Power+ 56V 21-inch Cordless Electric Dual-Port Self Propelled Lawn Mower with two 5.0Ah batteries for $623.22 shipped. You’d normally be pressed for $799 for this model and battery package at full price, with discounts here mostly keeping costs above $699, though we did see it go as low as $639 recently during Cyber Monday. Today, you’re looking at a solid 22% markdown that saves you $176 and gives you the chance to add it to your arsenal at the best price we’ve seen in over a year – sitting just $24 above the all-time low from 2020.

Built for more power to last longer, this self-propelled cordless lawn mower from EGO Power+ combines the brand’s brushless motor design with an expanded two-port PeakPower system that lets you use the two 5.0Ah batteries simultaneously for up to 80 minutes of runtime. Crowned with LED headlights for visibility no matter what time you’re tackling yard duties, it delivers a 6-position cutting height adjustment that ranges from 1.5 inches to 4 inches. There’s also a variable speed control for the mower’s mobility up to 3.1 MPH, as well as a 3-in-1 functionality for rear bagging, side discharges, or mulching.

Husqvarna Combi Switch

Add versatility to your arsenal with Husqvarna’s 330iKE Combi Switch lawn edger bundle at new $240 low

We just spotted the best deal yet on Husqvarna’s 330iKE Combi Switch and Lawn Edger Attachment with an included battery and charger for $239.80 shipped at Amazon. Down from its usual $420 price tag, which it regularly keeps to, this package has seen few discounts over the year, the biggest of them being a fall to $277 back in September. You can grab it here today at $180 off its going rate, giving you a new versatile upgrade for lawn duties at the lowest price we have tracked.

The 330iKE bundle from Husqvarna is a great way to start investing in the brand’s Combi Switch systems, which allows for the edge attachment to be switched out with over 14 others in seconds, cutting down on the space taken up by one-job tools. The edger attachment sports an 8-inch steel cutting blade that provides a 2.5-inch cutting depth, along with a 6-inch adjustable wheel for smooth operations to keep your lines on a straight and narrow path. There are no cords here to worry about either, with the Combi Switch motor ready to take any other Husqvarna batteries you’ve invested in for longer runtimes too.

GoTrax Z4 PRO e-bike

Get 19 miles of commuting support on GoTrax’s XR PRO electric scooter at new $330 low

Coming to us through its 25 Days of Deals, Best Buy is giving commuters the best deal we’ve seen on the GoTrax XR PRO Commuting Electric Scooter for $329.99 shipped through the rest of the day. Usually going for $550 these days, we saw it hit the former $350 low back in September, while more recent discounts have kept costs well above this rate since. For the rest of the day you can add it to your commute at a 40% markdown that saves you $220 while beating out its former low by $20.

GoTrax’s XR PRO e-scooter is an excellent option for commuters needing more convenience and independence during their travels to school, work, and so on. The 300W motor here (peaking at 400W) works alongside the 36V battery to deliver top 15.5 MPH speeds for up to 19 miles of travel on one full charge. The simple hook-n-latch system allows for one-touch folding when you’ve reached your destination, making it easy to store (and charge) while not in use. It has an integrated digital display that gives you control over the scooter’s settings, a bright LED headlight for those late-night commutes and joyrides, with 8.5-inch pneumatic, pre-slimed tires that help you to avoid flats, pops, and tears.

Best ongoing holiday e-bike deals!

Best new Green Deals landing this week

The savings this week are also continuing to a collection of other markdowns. To the same tune as the offers above, these all help you take a more energy-conscious approach to your routine. Winter means you can lock in even better off-season price cuts on electric tools for the lawn while saving on EVs and tons of other gear.

Double your chances in Climate XChange's 10th Annual EV Raffle!

Climate XChange Annual EV Raffle

Climate XChange’s Annual EV Raffle is back for the 10th year running – and for the first time ever, Climate XChange has two raffle options on the table! The nonprofit has helped lucky winners custom-order their ideal EVs for the past decade. Now you have the chance to kick off your holiday season with a brand new EV for as little as $100.

About half of the raffle tickets have been sold so far for each of the raffles – you can see the live ticket count on Climate XChange’s homepage – so your odds of winning are better than ever.

But don’t wait – raffle ticket sales end on December 8!

Climate XChange is working hard to help states transition to a zero-emissions economy. Every ticket you buy supports this mission while giving you a chance to drive home your dream EV.

Here’s how Climate XChange’s 10th Annual Raffle works:

The Luxury Raffle

  • Grand Prize: The winner can choose any EV on the market, fully customized up to $120,000. This year, you can split the prize between two EVs if the total is $120,000 or less.
  • Taxes covered: This raffle comes with no strings – Climate XChange also pays all of the taxes.
  • Runner-up prizes: Even if you don’t win the Grand Prize, you still have a chance at the 2nd prize of $12,500 and the 3rd prize of $7,500.
  • Ticket price: $250.
  • Grand Prize Drawing: December 12, 2025.
  • Only 5,000 tickets will be sold for the Luxury Raffle.

The Mini Raffle (New for 2025)

  • Grand Prize: Choose any EV on the market, fully customized, up to $45,000. This is the perfect raffle if you’re ready to make the switch to an EV but aren’t in the market for a luxury model.
  • Taxes covered: Climate XChange pays all the taxes on the Mini Raffle, too.
  • Ticket price: $100.
  • Only 3,500 tickets will be sold for the Mini Raffle.

Why it’s worth entering

For a decade, Climate XChange has run a raffle that’s fair, transparent, and exciting. Every ticket stub is printed, and the entire drawing is live-streamed, including the loading of the raffle drum. Independent auditors also oversee the process.

Plus, your odds on the Luxury and Mini Raffles are far better than most car raffles, and they’re even better if you enter both.

Remember that only 5,000 tickets will be sold for the Luxury Raffle and only 3,500 for the Mini Raffle, and around half of the available tickets have been sold so far, so don’t miss your shot at your dream EV!

Climate XChange personally works with the winners to help them build and order their dream EVs. The winner of the Ninth Annual EV Raffle built a gorgeous storm blue Rivian R1T.

How to enter

Go to CarbonRaffle.org/Electrek before December 8 to buy your ticket. Start dreaming up your perfect EV – and know that no matter what, you’re helping accelerate the shift to clean energy.

Who is Climate XChange?

Climate XChange (CXC) is a nonpartisan nonprofit working to help states pass effective, equitable climate policies because they’re critical in accelerating the transition to a zero-emissions economy. CXC advances state climate policy through its State Climate Policy Network (SCPN) – a community of more than 15,000 advocates and policymakers – and its State Climate Policy Dashboard, a leading data platform for tracking climate action across the US.

This fun-vibes Honda Cub lookalike electric scooter is now almost half off

This fun-vibes Honda Cub lookalike electric scooter is now almost half off

csc monterey electric scooter

The CSC Monterey – one of the most charming little electric scooters on the US market – has dropped to a shockingly low $1,699, down from its original $2,899 MSRP. That’s nearly half off for a full-size, street-legal electric scooter that channels major Honda Super Cub energy, but without the gas, noise, or maintenance of the original.

CSC Motorcycles, based in Azusa, California, has a long history of importing and supporting small-format electric and gas bikes, but the Monterey has always stood out as the brand’s “fun vibes first” model. With its step-through frame, big retro headlight, slim bodywork, and upright seating position, it looks like something from a 1960s postcard – just brought into the modern era with lithium batteries and a brushless hub motor.

I had my first experience on one of these scooters back in 2021, when I reviewed the then-new model here on Electrek. I instantly fell in love with it and even got one for my dad. It now lives at his place and I think he gets just as much joy from looking at it in his garage as riding it.

You can see my review video below.

The performance is solidly moped-class, which is exactly what it’s designed for. A 2,400W rear hub motor pushes the Monterey up to a claimed 30 mph or 48 km/h (I found it really topped out at closer to 32 mph or 51 km/h), making it perfect for city streets, beach towns, and lower-speed suburban routes.

A 60V, roughly 1.6 kWh removable battery offers around 30–40 miles (48-64 km) of real-world range, depending on how aggressively you twist the throttle. It’s commuter-ready, grocery-run-ready, and campus-ready right out of the crate.

It’s also remarkably approachable. At around 181 pounds (82 kg), the Monterey is light for a sit-down scooter, making it easy to maneuver and park. There’s a small storage cubby, LED lighting, and the usual simple twist-and-go operation. And it comes with full support from CSC, a company that keeps a massive warehouse stocked with components and spare parts.

My sister has a CSC SG250 (I’m still trying to convert her to electric) and has gotten great support from them in the past, including from their mechanics walking her through carburetor questions over the phone. So I know from personal experience that CSC is a great company that stands behind its bikes.

But the real story here is the price. Scooters in this class typically hover between $2,500 and $4,500, and electric retro-style models often jump well above that.

At $1,699, the Monterey is one of the least expensive street-legal electric scooters available from a reputable US distributor, especially one that actually stocks parts and provides phone support.

If you’ve been curious about swapping a few car errands for something electric – or you just want a fun, vintage-styled runabout for getting around town – this is one of the best deals of the year.
