We’re starting off this week’s Green Deals by looking in on Aventon’s Spring Sale offers once again, this time focusing on the Level 2 Commuter e-bike that has dropped to $1,499 for the first time in a year. Next, we’ve secured an exclusive new low for our readers on EcoFlow’s DELTA 2 Portable Power Station that drops costs to $360, with a separate collection of EcoFlow Spring Sale flash offers running through the rest of the day, led by the DELTA Max 2000 Portable Power Station at $899, along with two others. Lastly, Anker has added its latest EverFrost 2 Electric Coolers (as well as extended its massive F3800 Plus savings) to its SOLIX Spring Sale lineup, with the 40L model down at $700 while the dual-zone 58L model is down at $900. Plus, all the other hangover Green Deals from last week are in the links at the bottom of the page, rounded up together in our Electrified Weekly 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.

Aventon’s Level 2 commuter e-bike with 60-mile range drops to $1,499 in spring savings for first time in over a year

Popping back in on Aventon’s Spring Sale that is running through March 31, we wanted to shine a spotlight on the brand’s Level 2 Commuter e-bikes that have fallen lower than we’ve seen them in the last year, with both the Step-Over and Step-Through models at $1,499 shipped for this event. Though they carry a $1,899 price tag, over the last year we’ve seen them keeping down at $1,699 and $1,599 rates, never budging lower, even during Black Friday and Christmas sales. It has been since 2023 that we saw this model drop to $1,499 directly from Aventon (which is the lowest we’ve tracked from the brand and likely due to the upgraded Level 3 e-bike’s release), though we did spy a one-day-only sale from Best Buy a year ago that saw a short-term fall to the $1,299 low. You’re looking at a rare opportunity to score your own at the best price coming from Aventon and the second-best overall, saving you $400 to invest in accessories or other gear.

The Level commuter e-bikes have carried the mantle of Aventon’s flagship model, which is being passed off to the newest smart generation of the Level 3, but the Level 2 models still provide tried-and-true quality support for you on your daily travels. They come with a streamlined frame that houses a 500W rear hub motor (750W peak) alongside a fully integrated 14.0Ah battery, providing a 60-mile travel range at up to 28 MPH speeds on a single charge. There is a throttle to enjoy pure electric cruising that requires no effort from you, though you will only be able to top out at 20 MPH like this, with the 28 MPH top speed possible using the five PAS levels that come supported by a torque sensor.

There are also some solid stock features on Aventon’s Level 2 e-bike, like the front suspension fork for smoother riding, a Shimano 8-speed derailleur, fenders over both tires, and the rear-mounted cargo rack, which gives you some added versatility, especially if you’re carrying bags to class or work with you. That’s not all you’ll find, as it also comes with integrated head and taillights – the latter having brake lighting – as well as the backlit LCD display for at-a-glance performance updates and setting adjustments.

Be sure to check out the other e-bike deals we’re seeing during Aventon’s ongoing Spring Sale event, with deals like the free extra battery bundles on the Pace 500.3 e-bikes for 120 miles of travel, the $400 markdown on the Abound Cargo e-bike, the rare $2,599 low on the Ramblas Electric Mountain Bike, and more – all through March 31.

EcoFlow DELTA 2 Portable Power Station

Score exclusive $639 in savings on EcoFlow’s DELTA 2 1,024Wh LiFePO4 power station at a new $360 low

We’ve got a fresh new exclusive deal for our readers from Wellbots, this time on the EcoFlow DELTA 2 Portable Power Station for $360.40 shipped, after using the promo code 9TO5D2 at checkout. It’s already starting off coming down from its usual $999 price tag to $424, with the additional 15% off from the exclusive code bringing in a sizeable drop further. We’ve seen it go as low as $399 back during Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales, with EcoFlow’s current Spring Sale only bringing things down to $474 at the moment. Today’s deal gives you the best rate we have seen yet, cutting a combined $639 off the going rate and marking a new all-time low price.

EcoFlow’s DELTA 2 power station makes an excellent companion out of your home for short-term off-grid backup power needs, especially if you already have appropriate solar panels to pair with it. Alongside the usual smart controls and the IP68 waterproof rating, it provides a 1,024Wh LiFePO4 battery capacity that expands to 3,000Wh with one or two expansion batteries. It keeps your devices and appliances running with up to 1,800W output through its 15 port options normally, but can surge as high as 2,200W. Its battery can be quickly refilled thanks to the fast-charging tech here, which gives you an 80% battery in 50 minutes when plugged into a wall outlet, while a full charge takes a little longer at up to 80 minutes. There’s also the solar charging capabilities, with the unit having a max 500W solar input that can have the battery back to full in three to six hours, depending on conditions.

Anker SOLIX EverFrost 2 electric cooler

Anker’s new SOLIX EverFrost 2 40L and 58L electric coolers join in on the spring savings from $700

As part of its ongoing Spring Sale running through March 31, Anker has added its two sizes of SOLIX EverFrost 2 Electric Coolers to the lineup, alongside the extended $2,598+ savings on the new F3800 Plus power station and its bundles. You’ll find the 40L model down at $699.99 shipped and the 58L dual-zone model falling to $899.99 shipped. These coolers normally carry $900 and $1,100 price tags, respectively, since releasing at the top of the month, with only the previous launch discounts on the books – which brought the 40L down to $600 while the 58L model dropped to $800 from Anker and $809 from Wellbots. While not the lowest, you’ll still be getting $200 off these new releases, which is nice for folks who missed the window on the launch savings.

There will be a smaller 23L model of Anker’s SOLIX EverFrost 2 Electric Coolers hitting the market later in the year, which comes in as a more compact version of the 40L model that only has one compartment with dual functionality, while the 58L model provides two compartments for simultaneous cooling and freezing. These new coolers are trading in the previous generation’s direct cooling systems for air-cooled refrigeration, which provides a chilled space for your food and drinks at much faster speeds (about 18 minutes).

Unlike the upcoming 23L model, the 40L and 58L models both sport dual battery ports (the second batteries are sold separately on the landing pages), allowing for up to 104 hours of continuous runtime when they are set to their Eco mode. Each battery comes with a 288Wh capacity, and alongside running the coolers, they can be removed and used as a power bank when needed, giving you the versatility to top off your personal devices with either the 60W USB-C or 12W USB-A ports. You have four means to recharge the batteries – connect its maximum 100W solar input, plug it into a wall outlet or a 12V car port (for 3.6-hour charge times), or use a USB-C connection for 5.5 hours of charging. Both models sport IPX3 water-resistance ratings, as well as large 6-inch wheels for semi-rough terrain and a fold-down tray that is also used as a handle. For $50 more (option on the landing page), you can also score them with the Road Trip Kit which includes a dual cup holder, knife holder, and rod holder.

As I mentioned earlier, Anker has extended the massive launch savings on its newest F3800 Plus power station and its bundles as part of its current savings event. You can browse the full lineup of Spring Sale offers in our original coverage here.

EcoFlow DELTA Max Portable Power Station

EcoFlow’s final Spring Sale flash offer drops the DELTA Max 2,016Wh power station to $899

Running as part of EcoFlow’s ongoing Spring Sale, the brand has launched the last of its limited-time flash sales, this time with three different offers – two power station deals and one accessory discount. Starting with the largest discount, there’s the DELTA Max 2000 Portable Power Station down at $899 shipped. This model would normally cost you $2,099 at full price here, with most of the discounts we’ve seen have been on the power station’s bundle options, though the standalone unit has been seen going as low as $759 in the past, though it more regularly keeps above $949. Today’s deal gives you a 57% markdown, cutting $1,200 off the going rate and landing it at the third-lowest price we have tracked.

You’ll be getting a 2,016Wh starting capacity with the DELTA Max 2000 power station, which can be expanded even further up to 6,000Wh with the addition of expansion batteries. It delivers up to 2,400W of power output through its 15 port options normally, with the X-Boost tech present to ramp things to 3,400W for larger appliance needs. You can refill 80% of the battery in just 65 minutes by plugging it into a wall outlet, with other options for combination fast-charging, including AC and solar, AC and a generator, or solar and a generator – with the battery being recharged in as fast as 2.5 hours should you have the maximum 800W solar input connected for those combo options.

The second of the power station deals is on the DELTA 2 Portable Power Station that comes with a waterproof bag for $459 shipped. This model offers a more compact 1,024Wh LiFePO4 capacity that’s expandable up to 3,000Wh and dishes out up to 1,800W through the 15 ports (surging to 2,200W). Recharging times vary from 50 minutes to six hours depending on whether you’re utilizing a wall outlet or its max 500W solar input. If you’re unconcerned with getting the bag, be sure to check out the exclusive new $360 low on the power station by itself that we’ve secured from Wellbots.

Lastly, you can score the brand’s 500W Bifacial Modular Solar Panel for $479 shipped, down from $899. This kit comes in four 125W segments that attach to the included frame to provide 500W of solar input – the largest of the brand’s panel options, which makes it a great add-on for your existing setups or for any new ones you’re planning to grab while the sale’s full savings are still running.

There’s only a few days left of EcoFlow’s second phase of Spring Sale deals, which are running through March 26, with up to 59% discounts, bonus savings, free gear, and more.

Tesla starts production of cheaper new Model Y non-Launch Edition

Tesla starts production of cheaper new Model Y non-Launch Edition

Tesla has started production of the new Model Y non-Launch Edition, which is going to be cheaper without all the options bundled together.

However, the automaker hasn’t started to take orders yet.

Tesla opened orders for the refreshed Model Y in North America and Europe in late January and started deliveries in early March in the US.

The only trim available has been a special “Launch Edition” version of the Long Range AWD.

Advertisement – scroll for more content

It starts at $60,000, which is $12,000 more than the Model Y LR AWD used to cost, but Tesla bundled all options together, forcing all Launch Edition buyers to get the vehicle fully loaded, including the $8,000 Full Self-Driving package.

The Launch Edition also features special badging throughout the vehicle, along with “Premium Textile Trim” and “Vegan Suede for Black Interior”.

Now, a new drone flyover of GIgafactory Texas shows that Tesla has started to produce regular non-Launch Edition new Model Y as several new Model Y vehicles were spotted without Launch Edition badges:

However, as of the time of writing, Tesla had yet to open up orders for the new Model Y non-Launch Edition in the US and Canada:

In China and Europe, Tesla is already taking orders for all Model Y trims without Launch Edition bundles.

We suspect that this has to do with Tesla having some demand issues for the new Model Y Launch Edition in the US.

We reported yesterday that Tesla can deliver the vehicle in most colors on the same day as you order in the US, pointing to having exhausted its order backlog just a few weeks after starting deliveries.

Electrek’s Take

Launching the cheaper non-Launch Edition version would affect demand for the Launch Edition, and it’s clear that Tesla is having issues selling all of them by the end of the quarter.

Tesla always attempts to reduce its inventory as much as possible at the end of the quarter to improve its quarterly earnings results.

I expect Tesla will open orders in North America at the beginning of the second quarter later next week.

In Europe, Tesla is already taking deliveries for all versions of the new Model Y non-Launch Edition, but only the LR AWD has started deliveries.

The RWD versions are expected to arrive in May-June.

In China, RWD deliveries have started and new orders can be delivered within 2-4 weeks.

Chevy is the fastest-growing EV brand in the US right now

Chevy is the fastest-growing EV brand in the US right now

Chevy-fastest-growing-EV-brand

The fastest-growing EV brand in the US is not Tesla or Rivian. It’s GM’s Chevrolet. With the electric Equinox, Blazer, and Silverado rolling out, Chevy is now the fastest-growing EV brand in the US. Although Tesla still accounts for about 50% of EV retail share, new models are eating away at its lead.

Chevy is the fastest-growing EV brand in the US

Earlier this year, GM claimed to be the “fastest-growing high volume EV manufacturer in the US” after sales surged 50% in the fourth quarter.

GM’s share of the US electric vehicle market doubled last year to around 12.5% in Q4. By the second half of 2024, GM topped Ford to become the number-two seller of EVs, trailing only Tesla.

Chevy led the growth with Q4 Equinox EV sales climbing 85% from the prior quarter. Despite launching just last year, the Chevy Equinox EV became the eighth best-selling EV in the US by the end of 2024.

According to JD Power, “The fastest-growing brand in the EV segment right now is Chevrolet.” The new vehicle forecast for March expects “a month of stability for EVs,” with 23% of buyers saying they are “very likely” to consider an electric car as their next purchase.

The report notes that “EV retail share is on the rise, crossing the 10% threshold” so far in March. Although other brands, like Chevy and Rivian, are on the rise, Tesla’s share has dropped to 50% in 2025, down from 56% a year ago.

Chevy calls the electric Equinox “America’s most affordable 315+ miles range EV.” The 2025 Equinox EV LT FWD starts at $34,995, with an EPA-estimated range of up to 319 miles. It’s available in both FWD and AWD across two trims: LT and RS.

Last week, orders for the 2025 Blazer EV SS opened. Chevy’s electric SUV is now available in LT, RS, and SS trims with FWD, AWD, and RWD powertrain options. It starts at $45,995 and has a range of up to 312 miles.

Keep in mind that all Chevy Equinox and Blazer EV models still qualify for the $7,500 federal tax credit. With it included, you could potentially snag an electric Equinox for around $27,500 or the Blazer EV for roughly $38,500.

With Chevrolet Equinox EV leases starting as low as $299 per month or 0% APR financing right now, it’s no wonder sales are surging.

Leading the pack of Green Deals today is the massive savings we’re seeing coming from Anker’s final SOLIX Spring Sale flash offers running through March 31 on its F3800 Portable Power Station bundles, with up to $7,032 off four options and some free gear too – all starting from $2,799. Right behind it is EVOLV’s Spring Sale discounts on four of its high-quality electric scooters, like the popular TERRA, with deals starting from $1,129.

Anker’s final SOLIX spring flash sale offers giant deals on F3800 power station bundles at up to $7,032 off

As part of its ongoing Spring Sale through March 31, Anker has launched the last of its SOLIX Spring Sale flash offers running through the rest of the month and taking up to 44% off in initial savings on a selection of F3800 bundles, as well as any additional savings you can score on packages that are over $3,000. Things are starting with the SOLIX F3800 Portable Power Station coming along with two 200W solar panels at $2,799 shipped. This bundle would normally cost you $4,997 at full price, which we don’t usually see featured in sales as much as we do the counterpart bundle with a single 400W panel. Today’s deal is coming in lower than we’ve tracked before thanks to the $2,198 markdown, which gives you a versatile and modular backup solution at the best price we can find. If you’d prefer the latest F3800 Plus model, be sure to check out the massive savings from its launch that have been extended alongside these deals.

Anker’s SOLIX F3800 is one of the best options for folks who want more versatility and expandability, as it starts with a 3,840Wh LiFePO4 capacity that can rise as high as 26.9kWh with future investments into its compatible expansion batteries (or scoring them in a bundle below). It puts out a normal 6,000W of output power that can surge up to 9,000W for large-scale appliances and home backup needs. There are 15+ output port options to connect to, which include dedicated ports for your RV, EV, and your home’s circuit breaker – though the latter will require either the Home Backup Kit for sectional support or the Home Power Panel for whole-home coverage and roof panel connections. You can recharge its own battery through an AC wall outlet, or connect up to its maximum 2,400W of solar input, which can refill the battery to 80% in 1.5 hours with ideal conditions.

If you’re trying to figure out which would be best for you – Anker’s SOLIX F3800 or the new SOLIX F3800 Plus, there are only a few differences to really keep in mind. First, the F3800 Plus has an increased solar input of 3,200W, as well as an increased capacity that it can take in from a generator. From there, it mainly depends on whether you’re an RV trekker or not – as the standard F3800 offers both L14-30R and 14-50R port options, while the F3800 Plus provides L14-30R and TT-30R ports, better for RV backup needs. Be sure to check out the full rundown of capabilities for the newly released F3800 Plus and its massive savings in our original coverage here.

Anker’s final SOLIX Spring Sale F3800 flash offers:

  • F3800 (7,680Wh) with expansion battery and home backup kit: $4,084 (Reg. $7,097)
    • Bonus 5% savings automatically applied in cart
    • Comes with free protective cover
  • F3800 (11,520Wh) with two expansion batteries: $4,928 (Reg. $8,997)
    • Bonus 7% savings automatically applied in cart
    • Comes with free protective cover
  • Two F3800s (15kWh) with two batteries, home power kit, and four 410W panels: $9,299 (Reg. $16,331)
    • Bonus 7% savings automatically applied in cart

These flash sale offers will be running for the rest of the month alongside Anker’s overall SOLIX Spring Sale deals, and be sure to also check out the extended F3800 Plus savings, as well as the recently added EverFrost 2 Electric Cooler savings, which will both last through the end of the main sale.

EVOLV Terra Electric Scooter

EVOLV takes up to $400 in spring savings off four of its electric scooters starting from $1,129

EVOLV has a Spring Sale savings event going on right now, which is taking up to $400 off a selection of its higher-end e-scooters, starting with the TERRA Electric Scooter that starts at the lowest rate of $1,129 shipped, after using the promo code SPRING-SALE at checkout. Coming off its usual $1,229 price tag, we don’t see too many discounts across the lineup and when we do, it’s often in small amounts, with this model usually only seeing this same $100 markdown – including for Black Friday, which has only been beaten once over the last year when it hit a new $1,079 low in September. You’re looking at the second-lowest price we have tracked while these savings last.

The popular TERRA e-scooter sports dual 600W motors alongside a 15.6Ah battery, giving it the capabilities to reach 31 MPH top speeds and carry you anywhere for up to 34 miles on a single five to seven hours of charging. There are two driving modes here – the dual mode, activating both motors to produce up to 2,200W of peak power for maximum speed and tackling inclines, as well as the eco mode, which only utilizes one motor to limit things at 15 MPH, providing longer-lasting rides. Among its stock features, you’ll find front and rear shock suspension, dual drum brakes, dual LED headlights and dual LED taillights, as well as in-deck lights too – plus, the folding frame that conserves storage space when its not in use.

EVOLV’s other Spring e-scooter deals:

Worx 12A Trivac blower/vacuum/mulcher

Clear yard debris by blowing, collecting, and/or mulching with Worx’s 12A Trivac at $70

As part of its Big Spring Sale, Amazon is offering the Worx WG509 12A Trivac 3-in-1 Electric Leaf Blower/Mulcher/Vacuum for $70.48 shipped. It’s coming down off its usual $100 price tag here today, with the last year mainly seeing prices drop between $75 and $95 on average, though we did see it go as low as $65 during Black Friday. While we have seen the price drop as far as $60 in the past, this deal gives you one of the best recent rates we’ve tracked at $30 off the going rate, landing it down among the lowest we have seen.

The Worx Trivac was designed with the phrase “work smarter, not harder” in mind, offering up a 3-in-1 functionality to either blow, collect, and/or mulch the debris in your yard. The standard blower settings max out at 210 MPH worth of airflow, while the included bag provides the means for collection, which is controlled via a simple flip of a switch. It boasts a two-stage metal impeller and shredder blades to complete mulching tasks, which Worx assures “takes 18 bags worth of leaves and chops it down into one.” It weighs in at only 10 pounds for easier use despite varying sizes and strengths, and sports an angled collection nozzle so you can even reach under patio furniture, your deck, and more. This is a corded model, by the way, so you just have to keep it plugged in for prolonged use rather than wait for any batteries to recharge.
