Anker’s latest SOLIX F3800 Plus modular LiFePO4 power station and bundles at new lows starting from $2,999

Anker has kicked off its SOLIX Memorial Day Sale event that will continue running through May 26 with up to 55% in initial discounts, as well as some bonus holiday gifts, extra savings on orders over $3,000 and 6% cash back savings for military and service members (more on those below). Among this sale’s lineup, we spotted Anker’s new SOLIX F3800 Plus Portable Power Station dropping lower than ever to $2,999 shipped, and also matching in price at Amazon. Coming off its $4,799 full price, we’ve only been seeing it initially drop as low as $3,199 in past sales and its original launch deal, so you’re getting an additional $200 in savings for a total of $1,800 off the going rate at a new all-time low price. Along with the lower-than-ever cost, you’ll also be getting a free protective cover for the station ($160 value), which extends to any of its bundles, as well as any standard F3800 purchases, which start $1,100 over the exclusive refurbished deal we secured from Wellbots.

As previously mentioned, we’re seeing quite a few extra savings during Anker’s SOLIX Memorial Day Sale. To start, the Mother’s Day promotions are being extended here, with the protective cover (in some cases, two covers) for the F3800 and F3800 Plus units and bundles. Next, you’ll get a free camping chair ($60 value) along with any F2000, C1000, or C800 Plus purchases, or a Tritan water bottle ($16 value) with any of the C300 bundles. There’s also the extra cash savings, with orders over $3,000 getting 3% off, orders over $4,000 getting 5% off, and orders over $5,000 getting 7% off. Plus, there’s the 6% discount for military and service members that can be redeemed with an ID.me verification on the landing page here.

A modular backup power solution that offers massive expansion capabilities, the Anker SOLIX F3800 Plus starts with a 3,840Wh LiFePO4 battery that can be invested in and built up over time with further investments, increasing its capacity as high as 26,900Wh with six expansion batteries. There are 15 ports here that dish out a steady output of up to 6,000W, which not only surges up to 9,000W for larger needs, but also expands up to 12,000W when two stations are paired together, regardless of them being the standard model or Plus model.

There are a few differences between the models that largely depend on what your needs are. To start, the F3800 Plus offers one additional way to recharge its battery, utilizing up to 6,000W of input from a gas generator. Its solar input has also been increased from the standard’s 2,400W to 3,200W, while also offering the same AC charging and more. One of the biggest decisions for these models lies on how you might be planning to keep your EVs and RVs going, with the standard F3800 sporting both a L14-30R and 14-50R output, while the F3800 Plus sports L14-30R and TT-30R ports.

Aventon Abound cargo e-bike

Aventon’s Memorial Day Sale takes up to $400 off e-bikes like the cargo-hauling Abound at $1,599

Aventon has launched its Memorial Day Savings event, which is not only taking up to $400 off its e-bike lineup but also running parallel alongside its latest release of the new Aventure 3 All-Terrain e-bike. Among the offers, we spotted the Abound Cargo e-bike down at $1,599 shipped. Normally going for $1,999 at full price in our post-tariff marketplace, it’s been consistently seen down at $1,799 since May of last year, with more recent sales taking the price down this low again. You’re getting $400 off the tag during this sale, or you could consider upgrading to its new-generation counterparts, the Abound SR smart e-bike or the Abound LR smart e-bike, with the difference between them being the latter’s seven-inch longer cargo space with a lockable onboard storage bag and 8-pound heavier chassis.

One of Aventon’s popular options since first releasing in 2023, the Abound e-bike provides ample cargo-hauling potential alongside versatile utility for commutes. It’s equipped with a 750W rear hub motor, peaking at 1,200W to cover inclines and pick-up when you’re bringing cargo along for the ride. There’s a 678.2Wh integrated battery too, with it powering the motor to reach 20 MPH top speeds for up to 50 miles of travel on a single charge with its four PAS levels activated (and supported by a torque sensor). Mileage will be lessened if you solely use its throttle for pure electric cruising.

It comes along with plenty of solid features too, including a front suspension fork, hydraulic brakes, integrated front and rear lights with turn signal functionality, fenders over both tires, the integrated rear cargo rack with a 143-pound payload, a Shimano 7-speed derailleur, a kickstand, a storage bag, and an LCD Smart “Easy Read” display.

Hyundai is discounting EVs by over ,000 as price cuts expand beyond the US

Hyundai-discounting-EVs

After cutting prices on its top-selling electric vehicle by nearly $10,000 in the US, Hyundai is now bringing the savings to new markets. Hyundai is offering discounts of over $34,000 on some of its EVs overseas.

Hyundai is discounting EVs in the US and overseas

Last week, Hyundai announced it was reducing prices on the 2026 IONIQ 5 by up to $9,800 in the US. The 2026 IONIQ 5 starts at just $35,000, making it one of the most affordable EVs available alongside the Chevy Equinox EV and the Nissan LEAF.

Hyundai said the generous EV discounts reflected its “commitment to affordability” as part of its long-term strategy.

Record vehicle sales and higher output at its new EV plant in Georgia are helping reduce costs, which the company said it’s now passing on to buyers.

The massive EV discounts are starting to pile up after Hyundai cut prices in another market on Tuesday. After launching a series of special offers in Australia on Tuesday, Hyundai is discounting some of its EVs by more than $34,000.

According to TheDriven, Hyundai reduced prices on select IONIQ 5, IONIQ 6, Inster EV, and Kona Electric models by up to $34,142.

Hyundai’s most affordable electric car, the Inster (which is sadly not sold in the US), received a $3,925 price reduction, and now starts at under $40,000 for the first time.

The IONIQ 6 is heavily discounted, with up to $34,142 off the driveway price on 2023 model year inventory. Hyundai has also reduced the prices of the IONIQ 5 by nearly $10,000. As the report points out, the savings are based on the driveway prices in NSW, which are available nationally.

Although Hyundai’s price cuts in the US were in response to the $7,500 federal EV tax credit expiring, the discounts in Australia come as demand for electric cars is at an all-time high. In September, electric vehicles accounted for 11.3% of new car sales.

In the US, Hyundai is still offering a $7,500 cash incentive for 2025 IONIQ 5 models until at least the end of October.

2025 vs 2026 Hyundai IONIQ 5 prices and range by trim

The 2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 Standard Range starts at $42,600, while the 2026 model year is priced from just $35,000.

Although it was already one of the most affordable EVs on the market, the IONIQ 5 is hard to pass up with leases starting at just $249 per month in the US. For $10 more per month ($259), you can upgrade to the long-range SE RWD trim, which offers a range of up to 318 miles.

ComEd charges ahead with $100M in EV investments, thousands of new chargers

ComEd charges ahead with 0M in EV investments, thousands of new chargers

Since 2024 ComEd’s Electric Vehicle rebate programs have helped propel thousands of chargers and fleet EVs within Illinois; more than $60 million in rebate funding remains to be paid this year

Northern Illinois utility ComEd has spent for than $100 million in EV and EV charging rebates since launch its Beneficial Electrification program in 2024 — an investment that, along with funding from the Illinois EPA and other Federal grants, has helped drive EV adoption in the state at a rate that’s rapidly outpaced the rest of the nation.

Since its launch in 2024, ComEd’s Beneficial Electrification (BE) Plan has supported the deployment of more than 7,200 electric vehicle charging ports and over 2,200 EVs registered to business and public sector commercial customers.

The company, part of the larger Exelon utility group) has also announced plans to invest an additional $168 million of EV and charging infrastructure investments between 2026 and ’28. The target is both in line with Illinois’ clean transportation goals and which will generate a real, objective reduction in air pollution — a goal that (one would hope) transcends political affiliations.

“Reducing emissions from vehicles is one of the most effective and important things we can do to improve air quality and public health,” explains Rob Anderson, President and CEO of Respiratory Health Association. “As we have seen the ending of federal funding support for this effort, ComEd’s continued commitment of transportation electrification rebates is leading the way for our shared goal of eliminating pollution and creating cleaner air for all of our communities across northern Illinois.”

Building on the $231 million investment from 2023 through 2025, the additional $168 million will assist both residential and non-residential customers transition to EVs. The company also places an emphasis on equity, with 80% of the rebates from its over 6,400 projects going to low-income business and public sector organizations serving low-income and Equity Investment Eligible Communities (EIECs).

The ComEd rebates support the goals of Illinois’ Climate and Equitable Jobs Act (CEJA), which was signed into law by Governor J.B. Pritzker in 2021 to combat climate change and promote beneficial electrification across the state. CEJA also has the goal of putting 1 million EVs on Illinois roads by 2030, and ComEd certainly has role to play there, as 90% of the 150,000 EVs registered in Illinois operate within its service territory (that’s up from 19,000 EVs in 2019).

Electrek’s Take

The EV tax credit is no more — what happens now?

While President Trump was running for re-election, he campaigned on the threat promise of canceling the $7,500 federal tax credit for EVs — a campaign promise he kept as recently as September 30th. That wasn’t the end of the road for EVs, however.

Along with California Governor Gavin Newsom, Illinois’ Governor JB Pritzker made countermoves – launching a $4,000 rebate for new electric cars and up to $1,500 for the purchase of a new electric motorcycle. More recently, some clever accounting from the folks at GM and Ford are keeping the $7,500 lease credit alive, and other companies like Hyundai and Toyota are simply reducing the asking price on their EVs.

It seems to me like there’s plenty of life in EVs, yet.
