We’ve got three different sales to kick off this week’s Green Deals, starting with Jackery’s newly launched early Easter savings that are taking up to 50% off units, including a new low price on the Explorer 3000 Pro solar generator bundle with a 500W panel for $1,947, among others. We spotted Tenways’ Spring Sale fresh out of the gate with up to $600 in e-bike savings (as well as up to $385 in bonus free gear), the largest of which is hitting the AGO X All-Terrain e-bike for a new $1,899 low. Lastly, running as part of EcoFlow’s ongoing Easter Sale and Mega Sale, we have two short-term flash offers on the RIVER 3 Portable Power Station to its $159 low, as well as a much more massive dual DELTA Pro 3 home backup bundle. Plus, all the other hangover Green Deals from last week are in the links at the bottom of the page, collected together in our Electrified Weekly roundup.

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.

Jackery’s early Easter sale offers Explorer 3000 Pro solar generator with a 500W panel at new $1,947 low

Jackery is launching its Early Easter Sale through April 11, offering up to 50% off a collection of power stations for home backup, individual appliance backup, and outdoor adventures – plus, there is a limited-time bonus 5% off discount too. One noticeable price drop for RV roamers is the brand’s Explorer 3000 Pro Portable Power Station bundled with a 500W solar panel for $1,946.55 shipped, after using the code EXTRA5 at checkout for an additional 5% off. Coming down from its $3,449 price tag here, with a higher $3,699 rate elsewhere, this is only the third discount we have seen on this newer bundle after first appearing as a short-term flash offer to $1,999 before returning to that rate for its longer sale at the end of March. It’s going lower than ever here today as the 44% markdown strikes $1,502 off the going rate at a new all-time low. It also beats out the Amazon pricing that is only bringing costs down to $2,299.

A great choice to gear up for camping trips – whether you’re planning to rough it in tents or take out the RV – Jackery’s Explorer 3000 Pro is one of the more versatile options in terms of what it can power. It boasts a 3,024Wh capacity and provides up to 3,000W of average power output, surging to 6,000W for those larger appliance needs. There are 10 port options to connect to for a juice up, one of them even being a RV-dedicated TT30 port, putting it alongside the Explorer 2000 Plus and Explorer 5000 Plus as the best support for RV travels/living (deals on them below). On that note, if you want to possibly invest to build up your system, these two alternate models come as modular setups that can expand upward in capacity and output, unlike the 3000 Pro.

Plugging the Explorer 3000 Pro into a wall outlet will get you back to a full battery in about 2.4 hours, or you can take advantage of its maximum 1,200W of solar input that takes a little longer at three to four hours when using the sun’s rays (which will be a little over twice that timeframe for the 500W bundle here). There’s also the third option to connect it to your vehicle, which refills the battery in about 35 hours.

***Note: None of the following prices have had the bonus savings factored in, so be sure to use the code EXTRA5 where applicable to score the most savings (you’ll see it as an on-page offer).

Tenways AGO X e-bike

Tenways drops the AGO X all-terrain e-bike to new $1,899 low (Reg. $2,499) in spring savings

Tenways has launched its Spring Sale with up to $600 being taken off its e-bike lineup. Alongside the brand’s popular CGO600 Pro (both the chain-drive and belt-drive models), which is down at $1,499 once again, we spotted the more advanced AGO X e-bike scoring the biggest price cut to $1,899 shipped and coming with $307 in free gear. This sale is bringing the costs down off the e-bike’s usual $2,499 price tag, with the discounts we’ve been seeing over the last year only going as low as $1,999. While this sale continues you’ll be able to take advantage of a $600 markdown that brings the price down lower than we’ve seen before, landing it at a new all-time low price. Not only are you getting free mudguards and a rear cargo rack for free ($307 value), but you can also add on a front carrier for just $1 (normally $79). As usual, medical providers, military personnel, first responders, and teachers can also score an additional $150 in savings through verification.

Boasted as an all-terrain “e-bike SUV” for errands and commutes alike, Tenways’ AGO X cruises into view via the Bafang M410 250W mid-drive motor and 504Wh battery. While it’s not as lightweight as its counterparts, it only weighs in at 64 pounds, which still makes it more manageable for urban environments than many other competitors on the market. Like its sibling e-bikes, this one also does away with any throttle, but with the five PAS levels that come supported by an integrated torque sensor, you’ll be getting up to 62 miles of travel on a single charge, with it reaching top speeds of 20 MPH.

The streamlined design of its frame not only gives it a slick look, with its cable system all neatly contained out of sight, but also comes with a nice variety of features. Your riding experience is enhanced for smoother and more comfortable rides with the SR SUNTOUR Lockout Fork, Selle Royal Saddle, and riser handlebars while safety is guaranteed thanks to the hydraulic disc brakes, 29-inch puncture-resistant tires, and integrated front and rear lighting. That’s not all, you’ll also have a Shimano 10-speed derailleur and a TFT LCD color display that can pair with your smartphone to provide navigation and more.

Tenways’ other Spring Sale e-bike deals:

  • CGO600 Pro Belt-Drive e-bike: $1,499 (Reg. $1,899)
    • 20 MPH for up to 53 miles
    • comes with $118 in free gear
  • CGO600 Pro 8-speed e-bike: $1,499 (Reg. $1,899)
    • 20 MPH for up to 53 miles
    • comes with $118 in free gear
  • CGO800S Premium Step-Thru Commuter e-bike: $1,699 (Reg. $1,999)
    • 20 MPH for up to 53 miles
    • Turn-signaling and color display
    • comes with $227 in free gear + $1 front carrier offer
  • AGO T Step-Thru Premium e-bike: $2,699 (No initial price cut)
    • 20 MPH for up to 62 miles
    • Enviolo stepless shifting hub
    • comes with $178 in free gear
EcoFlow RIVER 3 Portable Power Station

EcoFlow flash sale returns RIVER 3 245Wh LiFePO4 power station to $159 low + a massive home backup bundle

As part of both its Easter Sale and Mega Sale, EcoFlow has launched the second round of flash offers running through the rest of the day. The first of these discounts is on the RIVER 3 Portable Power Station for $159 shipped. It’s being brought down from its usual $239 price tag for today only, which we’ve been frequently seeing more recently, especially in the form of Amazon Lightning deals. You can grab one today at the returning all-time low price thanks to the 33% markdown that cuts $80 off the going rate, with the matching option to grab it from Amazon too.

A compact option for personal device and appliance backup while out camping, EcoFlow’s RIVER 3 sports a 245Wh LiFePO4 capacity with X-GaNPower tech to bolster its energy efficiency by “delivering double runtime for appliances under 100W while reducing the size and controlling the volume to less than 30 dB at a distance of 1.5 ft.” This, paired with the additional X-Boost tech, allows for its 300W of power output to surge up to 600W to cover appliances like heaters and the like – with six port options available to connect to (two ACs, two USB-As, one USB-C, and one car port).

The battery can be recharged back to full in just one hour via a wall outlet while also having the option to connect up to 110W of solar input to recharge in 2.6 hours. The unit has waterproof and fireproof safeguards, as well as an IP54 protection rating and a drop-resistant design to minimalize potential damage while out in the wilds.

The second of these flash offers is a much larger home backup bundle of two DELTA Pro 3 Portable Power Stations with a 50A hub to connect them and a Smart Home Panel 2 – all for $6,179 shipped. Each of these power stations gives you a 4,096Wh LiFePO4 capacity (8,192Wh together) that can output power through its 14 ports at 4,000W (surging to 6,000W). Of course, this setup can be further expanded to a maximum 48,000Wh capacity with additional gear that also expands its power output up to 12,000W. The power station boasts the largest amount of ways to recharge too, with seven solo-source options and 18 combination options. With the Smart Home Panel 2, you’ll have the plug-and-play option to cover up to 12 circuits at home when outages occur, with it also allowing you to connect to any rigid roof panels for everyday solar charging too.

Be sure to also check out the differing lineups for EcoFlow’s ongoing Easter Sale and Mega Sale that are taking up to 65% off power stations through April 14, complete with free gear, massive EcoCredit rewards, and bonus savings.

This 2026 luxury Genesis electric SUV already has a massive ,000 discount

2026-Genesis-GV70-EV-discounts

The redesigned 2026 Genesis GV70 EV is arriving with significant discounts of up to $14,000. Genesis upgraded the luxury electric SUV with a longer driving range and a refined design, both inside and out. Here’s how you can score some savings.

Genesis introduces 2026 GV70 EV discounts

After launching the updated model in Korea earlier this year, the new GV70 EV is now arriving in the US. The new 2026 Genesis Electrified GV70 is an improvement in nearly every way compared to the outgoing model.

Like the gas-powered model, the EV version features a revamped design with a new Crest grille, a revised bumper, and MLA technology added to the Two-Tone headlights.

Inside, the GV70 EV has been “reborn” with more space and luxury. A new 27″ screen combines the infotainment and driver display, while the climate control now has a separate screen. Other premium features like the crystal electronic shift dial remain.

Powered by a larger 84 kWh battery, the new GV70 EV offers a driving range of up to 423 km (263 miles) in Korea, an increase from 400 km (249 miles) in the outgoing model with a 77.4 kWh battery.

Although US specs have yet to be announced, the 2026 model is expected to feature slightly more driving range than the current 236-mile EPA rating for the 2025 GV70. It’s expected to provide closer to 250 miles of range. It will also include an NACS port for charging at Tesla Superchargers.

According to a recent note sent to dealers viewed by CarsDirect, the 2026 Genesis GV70 EV is already available with discounts of up to $14,000 for a 24-month lease.

The savings vary by trim, with up to $3,500 in lease cash available on the Standard trim and up to $ 5,250 on the Advanced trim. Meanwhile, the range-topping Prestige trim features up to $14,000 in lease cash discounts.

Although the discount is significantly higher, the Prestige model also has a higher lease rate of 5.4% compared to 0.1% for the Advanced trim.

If you choose the 36-month loan, lease cash drops to just $500 for the Advanced and $3,250 for the Prestige. The base Standard trim offers no lease cash, but has a lease rate close to 0%. Other special finance rates include 5.99% APR for 60 months and 6.49% for 72-month loans.

The national lease offer is $679 for 36 months based on the Standard trim with an MSRP of $65,830. With $5,999 due at signing, the effective monthly cost is $845. The offer ends on April 30.

If you’re looking for a cheaper lease option, the upgraded 2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 is one of the most affordable EV lease deals right now. It starts at just $199 for 24 months with $3,999 due at signing.

Windrose electric semi truck isn’t coming to America – it’s already here

Windrose electric semi truck isn't coming to America – it's already here

Windrose Launches First All-Electric Long-Haul Sleeper Truck in U.S., Partnering With JoyRide Logistics & EO Charging to Deliver TCO Parity for Shippers

The 2025 edition of the ACT Expo hasn’t even started yet, but there’s already at least one big takeaway wort talking about: the Tesla-fighting Windrose electric semi truck from China Belgium is not coming to America … it’s already here. And it’s already in customers’ hands.

The Chinese Belgian heavy truck manufacturer announced plans to build its R700 Class 8 electric truck in the US in a bid to sidestep the heavy tariffs and trade restrictions on imported HDEVs last year – and last week, the company delivered the first-ever all electric, long-haul sleeper truck to a US fleet customer.

The trucks are deployed by JoyRide Logistics, a Phoenix-based carrier and the first US regional trucking company to operate fully electric sleeper trucks on long (-ish) distance routes that include overnight drives. The initial rollout is happening in Arizona, California, and Nevada, with nationwide expansion already “in sight,” according to both companies.

“This isn’t just a prototype or promise-this is a fully operational, long-range electric truck that’s ready to haul freight today,” says Wen Han, founder and CEO of Windrose. “We’ve validated our technology globally and are proud to bring it to the US – one of the most important logistics markets in the world.”

Meeting the needs

Windrose Launches First All-Electric Long-Haul Sleeper Truck in U.S., Partnering With JoyRide Logistics & EO Charging to Deliver TCO Parity for Shippers
JoyRide Logistics deploys their first Windrose sleepers; via Windrose.

JoyRide Logistics LLC partners with a number of its Fortune 500 customers, many of whom have public ESG goals and are actively working to reduce Scope 3 emissions. The integration of the Windrose R700 electric semis into their fleets is a targeted effort to help achieve their stated sustainability goals.

“Partnering with Windrose allows us to stay ahead-not just on sustainability, but on total operational performance,” said Adis Danan, President at JoyRide Logistics. “We’re talking fuel savings, reduced maintenance, and a future-ready fleet that our customers can get behind. We want to make electric logistics efficient, scalable-and cool.”

Windrose brought one of its all-electric R700 Class 8 trucks to this year’s ACT Expo, giving journalists and fleet buyers a chance to see the truck first hand. At last year’s show, Windrose impressed with a preproduction truck featuring what appeared to be a slick UI, well-finished interior, and solid construction.

The R700 packs a 729 kWh battery is reportedly good for about 420 miles of range on a single charge with a full, 49 ton GVW. The company has shown concepts (some renderings, some mules) in long-haul, severe duty, and dump body configurations.

Windrose is backed by HSBC, Citi, Fountainvest, GSR Ventures, HITE Hedge, Goodman Group, and other world-renowned investors, and has now worked with Decathlon, Remy Cointreau, Nestle Wyeth Nutrition, and many other top brands. Watch this space for more.

Electrek’s Take

In a bid to shake the “Chinese truck” stigmas in the west, Windrose has moved its corporate offices and is now based in Antwerp, Belgium – but it doesn’t matter if they say they’re based on Venus. The fact remains they have a capable, competent battery electric sleeper truck in the US and in customers’ hands right now … and they are absolutely full speed ahead.

Toyota unveils two sleek new EVs launching in China soon: Meet the bZ7 and Lexus ES

Toyota-bz7-Lexus-ES

Toyota is preparing to launch two new electric vehicles in China by mid-2026. The flagship Toyota bZ7 and Lexus ES are part of Toyota’s effort to regain market share from domestic electric vehicle (EV) leaders like BYD. Here’s our first look at the sleek new electric cars.

Meet the new Toyota bZ7 and Lexus ES EVs

At Auto Shanghai 2025 last week, Toyota announced plans to expand its electric vehicle (EV) lineup in China. According to Toyota, China is a “highly advanced market that leads the way in electrification.”

To keep pace, Toyota unveiled its new flagship electric sedan, the bZ7. The new bZ7 was developed locally with Guangzhou Automobile Group (GAC), Guangzhou Toyota Motor Co, and Intelligent ElectroMobility R&D Center by TOYOTA.

The bZ7 is over 5 meters long and will compete with the BYD Han L, Tesla Model S, BMW i5, and other premium EV models in China.

Toyota said the electric sedan will feature its “safe, reliable, and high-quality manufacturing” while infusing “China’s advanced tech.”

Although no other details were offered, Toyota said its new flagship EV will be equipped with the latest intelligent tech and is expected to launch within a year. The bZ7 will join the bZ4X, bZ3, bZ3X, and bZ5 in Toyota’s expanding EV lineup for China.

Toyota also unveiled the new Lexus ES at the event. The new model will be the first next-gen Lexus with EV and HEV powertrain options.

The eighth-gen ES is based on the LF-ZC concept, marking the beginning of the next generation of Lexus. The EV version will be available with FWD and AWD powertrain options, offering driving ranges of up to 685 km (425 miles) and 610 km (379 miles) on the CLTC cycle, respectively.

Inside, Lexus said the ES will debut with the world’s first Responsive Hidden Switches, which “seamlessly blends physical controls into the interior” for added convenience. It will also include a Lexus-first, Sensory Concierge, for a personalized in-car experience.

Lexus’ new electric sedan is 5,140 mm long, 1,920 mm wide, and 1,560 mm tall, approximately the same size as BYD’s Han L model (5,050 mm long, 1,960 mm wide, and 1,505 mm tall).

The ES is the second of three new Lexus electric vehicles set to debut by March 2026. It will follow the RZ and UX in the luxury brand’s EV lineup for China.

What are your thoughts on the new Toyota bZ7 and Lexus ES? Can they compete in China’s intensifying EV market? Let us know in the comments below.
