It’s Memorial Day and we’re rounding together a bunch of new and ongoing Green Deals for you to get the most savings out of the holiday. Headlining today’s coverage is Ride1Up’s increased savings on two e-bikes, led by the Portola Compact Folding e-bike that is down at $995 and continuing its BOGO accessory promo. Next, from EcoFlow’s Memorial Day Sale through May 28, we have the final flash savings event for today only that gives you the RIVER 2 Max Portable Power Station for $309, as well as two add-on accessory deals from $329. We also have Navee’s Memorial Day Sale that is taking up to $400 off e-scooters, including the 40-mile trekking S65 Electric Scooter for $560. From there, we’ve included some of the most popular events during the holiday from Lectric, Rad Power, Anker SOLIX, Samsung, and more – with all the rest of the hangover Green Deals in the links at the bottom of the page, rounded together in our Electrified Weekly post.
Ride1Up is increasing/adding savings on select e-bike offers during its Memorial Day Sale, with the brand’s popular Portola Compact Folding e-bike taking the lead and dropping down to $995 shipped. Normally priced at $1,095 in our post-tariff marketplace, this model doesn’t see many massive price cuts as its already down at quite the affordable rate, though we have seen it go $100 lower in the past, last seen during the brand’s 2024 Black Friday sale. Taking advantage of this deal while it lasts gives you quite the array of high-value features for the second-lowest price we have tracked. Plus, it’s still retaining its BOGO accessory promotion too, adding to the savings while upgrading your riding experience.
One of the Ride1Up’s most well-known models, the Portola Folding e-bike is a great option for folks wanting a budget-friendly commuting solution that can also save you space when not in use, all for under $1,000 too. You’ll have two options for its battery (with only a $100 difference in price): there’s the standard 10.4Ah battery that provides you with a 40-mile range, or the upgraded 13.4Ah battery that bumps that up to 45+ miles depending on conditions. Utilizing the throttle alone tops off at 20 MPH speeds, while having the pedal assistance activated helps you reach 28 MPH top speeds.

As I mentioned, there’s plenty of great features for the price here, like the 3-inch wide cross-country tires with fenders over each, the suspension travel fork, dual piston hydraulic brakes, Shimano Altus 8-speed derailleur, front and rear LED lights (with brake lighting), an integrated rear cargo rack (which is compatible with the brand’s passenger kit), the folding frame, and a 2.2-inch LCD display for setting adjustments and real-time performance data.
Ride1Up has also added its Roadster V3 Lightweight Premium e-bike to the sale at $1,395 shipped, down from $1,495. This model is great for those needing a more manageable ride that isn’t heavy or for those wanting to keep their health in mind, as it is great for cardio with its PAS turned off. It comes with a sleeker, streamlined frame, housing a 500W Angled gear quiet MIVICE hub motor and a 10Ah battery in order to travel up to 40 miles with the PAS support (and the Intui-Drive torque sensor). You’re speed will be determined by which drive train setup you go with (both being at the same price) – either 25 MPH with the belt-drive or 28 MPH with the chain-drive. There’s also features like the 700x45c Schwalbe G-One RS gravel tires with fenders over top, integrated front and rear lighting, the two-tone 1.3-inch VeloFox tempered glass OLED display, and more.
EcoFlow drops RIVER 2 Max 512Wh LiFePO4 power station to $309 (Reg. $469) along with two add-on offers from $329
As part of its ongoing Memorial Day Sale that will be continuing with up to 67% discounts on power stations through May 28, EcoFlow has three short-term flash offers – one on a power station, two on add-on accessories. These deals are being led by the brand’s RIVER 2 Max Portable Power Station, which is down at $309 shipped through the rest of the day. Normally going for $469 at full price these days, discounts kept things above $349 until April, when we saw it start dipping as low as $290. Today’s deal comes in as the second-lowest we have tracked, giving you an ample yet more compact backup power solution with $160 cut from the tag. It’s even beating out its Amazon pricing by $50.
Great for folks who are looking for a more compact power solution for smaller devices and appliances while on trips or for at-home use, the RIVER 2 Max covers needs with a 512Wh LiFePO4 capacity and an output of up to 1,000W (500W steady). There are nine port options giving you plenty of versatility, with four ACs, three USB-As, one USB-C, and one DC. Plugging it into a standard wall outlet gets you back to a full battery in one hour, with options to use solar capabilities (220W max input) taking 3+ hours, or you can plug it into your car’s auxiliary port for 8+ hours of charging as you drive. As usual, you’ll get the full array of remote smart controls for updates and setting adjustments, and it comes rated for 3,000 life cycles that gives you over eight continuous years of use were you to be discharging and recharging it every single day.
The other two offers running through the rest of the day, provide cash savings on add-on accessories for your existing setups or for any you were planning to pick up during this sale, with two 110W solar panels going for $329 shipped, down from $798, while two DELTA Pro Ultra Expansion Batteries are down at $4,599 shipped, down from $6,598. The solar panel package would fit right along with the DELTA 2 Max offer, or any other power station you may already have. Of course, the second of these offers is best for your existing DELTA Pro Ultra setup, increasing its capacity by an additional 12.2KWh.
Be sure to check out the full lineup of deals we’re seeing from EcoFlow’s Memorial Day Sale that will continue through May 28 with up to 67% discounts on units, bonus savings, free gifts, and more.

Block jumped more than 5% on Monday, leading a rally in shares of fintech companies as analysts downplayed the threat of JPMorgan Chase’s reported plan to charge data aggregators for access to customer financial information.
The recovery followed steep declines on Friday, after Bloomberg reported that JPMorgan had circulated pricing sheets outlining potential fees for aggregators like Plaid and Yodlee, which connect fintech platforms to users’ bank data.
In a note to clients on Monday, Evercore ISI analysts said the potential new expenses were “far from a ‘business model-breaking’ cost increase.”
In addition to Block’s rise, PayPal climbed 3.5% on Monday after sliding Friday. Robinhood and Shift4 recorded modest gains.
Broader market momentum helped fuel some of the rebound. The Nasdaq closed at a record, and crypto rallied, with bitcoin climbing past $123,000. Ether, solana, and other altcoins also gained.
Evercore ISI’s analysts said that even if JPMorgan’s changes were implemented, the most immediate effect would be a slight bump in the cost of one-time account setups — perhaps 50 to 60 cents.
Morgan Stanley echoed that view, writing that any impact would be “negligible,” especially for large fintechs that rely more on debit, credit, or stored balances than bank account pulls for transactions.
PayPal doesn’t anticipate much short-term impact, according to a person with knowledge of the issue. The person, who asked not to be named in order to speak about private financial matters, noted that PayPal relies on aggregators primarily for account verification and already has long-term pricing contracts in place.
While smaller fintechs that depend heavily on automated clearing house (ACH) rails or Open Banking frameworks for onboarding and compliance may face real pressure if the fees take effect, analysts said the larger platforms are largely insulated.
The global EV market is still charging ahead. According to new numbers from global research firm Rho Motion, 9.1 million EVs were sold worldwide in the first half of 2025, up 28% compared to the same period last year. But not every region is accelerating at the same pace.
China and Europe are doing the heavy lifting
More than half of the world’s EVs this year have been bought in China. That market hit 5.5 million sales in the first six months of 2025 – a 32% jump year-over-year. Around half of new cars bought in China are now electric.
While some Chinese cities’ subsidies have dried up, Rho Motion expects momentum to pick back up later in the year as more funding is released.
In Europe, 2 million EVs were sold in the first half of the year, up 26%. Battery electric vehicle (BEV) sales also rose 26%, thanks in part to affordable models like the Renault 4 (pictured) and 5 entering the market. Plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) weren’t far behind, growing 27% year-to-date. Chinese automakers are leaning into PHEVs as a way to work around the EU’s new tariffs on BEVs.

Spain is leading the pack with EV sales soaring 85% so far this year. Its generous MOVES III incentive program was extended in April and has kept sales strong. The UK and Germany are also seeing solid growth – 32% and 40%, respectively. France, however, is slumping. With subsidies cut, EV sales there have dropped 13%.
North America is stuck in the slow lane
Things aren’t looking quite as bright in North America. EV sales in the US, Canada, and Mexico are up just 3% so far this year.
Mexico is the one bright spot, with a 20% boost. The US is up 6%. But Canada is down a whopping 23%.
And things could get bumpier. On July 4, Trump signed Congress’s big bill into law, which axes all the Inflation Reduction Act EV tax credits. Those consumer credits for EVs now officially end on September 30.
Just over half of the EVs sold in the US this year qualified for those credits. Rho Motion predicts a rush in Q3 before the subsidies disappear – and a decline in sales after that.
Rho Motion data manager Charles Lester said, “With Trump’s latest cuts in his ‘Big Beautiful Bill,’ the US could struggle to see any growth in the EV market overall in 2025.”

Lucid’s electric sedan can drive further, charge faster, and packs more advanced tech than most of the competition. That might explain why it’s leading the segment. The Lucid Air remained the best-selling luxury EV sedan in the US after widening its lead in the Q2.
The Lucid Air is America’s best-selling luxury EV sedan
The 2025 Lucid Air Pure arrived as the “World’s most efficient car” with an EPA-estimated range of 420 miles and a record 146 MPGe.
It just set a new Guinness World Record last week for the longest journey by an electric car after travelling 749 miles (1,205 km) on a single charge.
That record was set in the range-topping Lucid Air Grand Touring model, which is rated for up to 512 miles of EPA-estimated range. On the WLTP scale, it’s rated at 597 miles (960 km). Either way, it still crushed the estimates.

According to second-quarter sales data, released by Kelley Blue Book on Monday, the Lucid Air is still America’s best-selling luxury EV.
Lucid sold 2,630 Air models in Q2, up 10% from the previous year. Through the first half of 2025, Lucid Air sales are up 17% with 5,094 units sold.

Tesla, on the other hand, only sold 1,435 Model Ss during the quarter, 71% fewer than it did in Q2 2024. Tesla Model S sales in the US are down 70% through the first half of the year at 2,715.
Although Porsche Taycan sales were up 32% with 1,064 models sold, the significantly upgraded 2025 model year was expected to see even more demand. Porsche has 2,083 Taycans in the US this year, up just 1% from 2024.

Other luxury EV sedans, such as the BMW i5 (1,434), i7 (820), and the Mercedes EQS (498), experienced steep double-digit sales declines year-over-year.
And it’s not just electric luxury sedans. The Lucid Air is currently outselling many gas-powered vehicles in its segment.

Lucid’s first electric SUV, the Gravity, is also rolling out. Although only five were sold in the second quarter, Lucid is quickly scaling production. Lucid aims to produce 20,000 vehicles this year, more than double the roughly 9,000 it built in 2024.
Earlier today, Lucid’s interim CEO, Marc Winterhoff, confirmed during an interview with Bloomberg that the company expects higher Gravity output in the second half of the year.
The interview was at the grand opening of Panasonic’s new battery cell plant in De Soto, Kansas. Winterhoff said Lucid will start using new cells from the facility, but not until next year.
Lucid’s CEO stressed the importance of establishing a local supply chain, as policy changes under the Trump Administration are taking effect. Lucid and Panasonic are collaborating to localize EV materials, such as graphite. Last month, Lucid secured a multi-year supply agreement with Graphite One for US-sourced Graphite.
