Anker’s new eufy E15 and E18 robot mowers with pure vision FSD navigation now $300 off with free gift starting from $1,500

Coming from Anker’s official sub-brand, eufy, we’re seeing increased savings alongside a free ambient lighting gift when purchasing either the new E15 Robot Lawn Mower at $1,499.99 shipped or the E18 Robot Lawn Mower at $1,699.99 shipped, after removing the $200 off code and using the promo code RTLM200 at checkout for $300 off on both models. Regularly $1,800 and $2,000 each, this is $300 off the new post-tariff price hikes and matching the best we have tracked since launch deals, with things beating out the $200 discount we’re seeing at Amazon. On top of the cash savings, you’ll also receive a free eufy Indoor Floor Lamp ($100 value) along with your purchase.

These are the latest and most advanced eufy robot mowers, trading in the reliance on boundary wires and RTK stations in favor of pure vision FSD tech with high-precision cameras and advanced AI that guides it around every inch of your yard, with the E15 model tackling up to 0.2 acres on a single charge and the E18 model going longer for up to 0.3 acres. According to the brand, you’ll only have a “5-minute setup” after taking it out of the box, which is done through its companion app, which also provides a full array of smart controls afterwards, letting you adjust settings, monitor its progress, and manage multi-zone areas via the 3D maps that it generates as works throughout your yard.

The 3D perception system on eufy’s E15 & E18 robot mowers detects and avoids collisions with everyday obstacles that it may come across, even in complex garden environments, while the smart coverage detection “guarantees no area is left uncut.” Those with pets or regular wildlife running around can also rest assured, as its systems will ensure their safety while in operation. You’ll be able to set its cutting height between 25mm to 75mm, with it operating at a quieter 56dB level and able to handle up to 40% inclines without concern. Beyond the controls you’ll have through your smartphone, the robot can also detect rainfall and/or when the sun sets, activating its automatic station return function. On top of that, there’s even the security system that activates an alarm when removed from its set work area while providing you with GPS tracking to hunt it down.

EVOLV PRO-R V2 electric scooter

Score $400 off EVOLV’s 50-mile trekking PRO-R V2 e-scooter with dual 1,400W motors at $2,099

EVOLV is currently offering three of its e-scooters at up to $400 off, with the largest discount being on the Pro-R V2 Electric Scooter that is down at $2,099 shipped, after using the on-page promo code for $400 off. The promo code is bringing the costs down from its usual $2,499 tag, which we last saw included in the brand’s Spring Sale back in March. Sadly, the Pro V2 counterpart is sold out, but you can pick up this upgraded variant with the biggest price cut we have seen at the lowest price we have tracked.

EVOLV’s PRO-R V2 electric scooter comes as the upgraded model to the PRO V2, providing far more power for greater incline tackling and traveling times. It’s been equipped with dual 1,400W motors that peak at 3,600W, as well as a 60V 25Ah battery, delivering 44 MPH top speeds for up to 50 miles on a single charge.

Along with its monstrous performance specs, you’ll also have a heightened riding experience thanks to it coming stocked with front and rear spring suspension, front and rear hydraulic disc brakes, a front fender light, a taillight, running lights under its deck, turn signal lights, an IP54 water-resistance rating, and a smart center display – all with a foldable design for easy storage and transport when not in use.

EVOLV’s other e-scooter deals:

Anker SOLIX power stations

Anker extends Memorial Day pricing with up to 55% continued discounts on power stations from $120

Anker has extended its SOLIX Memorial Day pricing as flash offers running through May 29, continuing the new low prices on its F3800 Plus power station and bundles, as well as the best direct post-launch pricing on its EverFrost 2 58L electric cooler. We’re also seeing plenty of solid deals on its smaller backup power solutions, like the F2000 Portable Power Station deals that start from $1,199 shipped for the standalone unit. Normally priced at $1,999 in full, you can save $800 off that rate while these savings last. While we did see it go as low as $999 back during Black Friday sales, this is still a sold 40% markdown off the going rate, matching its Christmas pricing at the third-lowest price we have tracked and also matching in price at Amazon.

Among the larger backup solutions from Anker and a solid mid-tier option to keep devices and appliances going while out of the house or at home during emergency blackouts, the SOLIX F2000 power station carries a 2,048Wh LiFePO4 capacity that can be expanded to 4,096Wh with an expansion battery (bundle options below). It dishes out steady power at up to 2,400W and is capable of surging as high as 3,600W for larger needs. There are 12 output ports to cover your needs, with one even being a TT-30 port for RV connections.

You can regain 80% of its battery in 1.4 hours by plugging it into a standard wall outlet, with it also boasting a 1,000W max solar input that would yield the same amount in 2.5 hours. There’s also the option to connect it to your car’s auxiliary port, as well as the usual array of smart controls available through its companion app.

Aventon Level 2 Commuter e-bike

Aventon’s extended Memorial Day savings take up to $400 off legacy e-bikes starting from $1,399

Aventon has extended its Memorial Day savings for a while longer, taking up to $400 off its legacy e-bikes in order to make room for its massive lineup of new smart e-bikes. Among the ongoing discounts, we wanted to focus on the previous flagship model, the Level 2 Commuter e-bike that is down at $1,599 shipped. This EV carries an $1,899 price tag when not benefitting from price cuts, which we’ve mostly seen being kept down at $1,699 and $1,599 during sales, though we have seen it as low as $1,299 in the past, which was last seen in a Best Buy one-day-sale back in March 2024. Grabbing this model while the savings lasts scores you $300 off the tag, giving you the third-lowest price we have tracked and also matching with its Black Friday and Christmas pricing. Head below for more on this e-bike and its counterparts seeing discounts.

Aventon’s Level series of e-bikes carry the mantle of the brand’s flagship models, with the Level 2 Commuter here having passed that title off to the new smart generation Level 3, but still provides some reliable mobility support through your daily travels. The sleek and streamlined frame arrives equipped with a 500W rear hub motor (peaking at 750W) and pairs with the integrated 14.0Ah battery in order to reach speeds as high as 28 MPH for up to 60 miles of travel on a single charge. The throttle can only get you up to 20 MPH, while activating the five PAS levels provides access to the faster 28 MPH speeds, as well as the 60-mile travel distance – all supported by a torque sensor too.

It comes with other solid features for the price, like the smoother rides you’ll get with the front suspension fork or the added safety when cruising alongside other vehicles, thanks to the taillights offering brake lighting. There’s also the integrated headlight, Shimano 8-speed derailleur, fenders over both tires, and the rear-mounted cargo rack, and the backlit LCD screen for real-time data and setting adjustments.

World’s First all-electric deconstruction site runs on Volvo CE

World's First all-electric deconstruction site runs on Volvo CE

Volvo Construction Equipment powers world's first all-electric deconstruction at Siemens site

This world’s first fully electric deconstruction site is being hailed as a landmark in sustainable urban development — and it’s powered by Siemens technology and Volvo Group’s battery-electric trucks and heavy equipment.

The deconstruction project (that’s kind of like a really careful demolition) marks the first full-scale electric deconstruction of its kind, and serves as important proof that with the right partners and the will to do it, urban construction projects like this can be carried out sustainably, today – and all without fossil fuels. It’s all part of Siemens’ €500 million technology campus redevelopment, the deconstruction site in Erlangen, Germany, and marks a pivotal step in advancing sustainable urban transformation and circular construction practices.

In collaboration with the demolition specialists at Metzner Recycling, Volvo CE deployed a fully electric fleet of equipment assets specially chosen to deliver quiet, precision demolition across the 25,000 cubic meter job site.

As well as deconstruction tasks, the electric machines helped sort and process approximately 12,800 tons of construction waste, with 96% recycled into raw materials for future use – supporting the shift towards circular materials management.

VOLVO CE

“At Siemens Real Estate, we are committed to pushing the boundaries of sustainable construction and demolition,” explains Christian Franz, Head of Sustainability at Siemens Real Estate. “This groundbreaking electric deconstruction project boasts an impressive 96% recycling rate and is a testament to our commitment to achieving excellence in sustainability … this project illustrates how partnerships and determination can create a lasting impact and help shape a more sustainable real estate industry.”

In addition the construction equipment was hauled into the site by Volvo Truck’s battery electric semi trucks, enabling emission-free operations from demolition, to crushing, materials processing, and transport.

Electrek’s Take

With a full line of electric wheel loaders, excavators, articulated haul trucks – even drum rollers and off-grid charging solutions to haul around with their electric semi trucks – Volvo is in a great position to take advantage of increasingly restrictive noise and emission regulations across Europe.

It’s too bad they’re suing California to be able to pollute more.

Hyundai wants to bring back the hot hatch, and its new EV concept nails it

Hyundai-EV-hot-hatch

Hyundai offered a first look at the hot hatch earlier this week after unveiling the Concept Three, its first compact EV under the IONIQ family. The new EV, set to arrive as the IONIQ 3, already has a sporty, hot hatch look, but that could be just the start.

Hyundai has a new EV hot hatch in the making

The Concept Three took the spotlight at IAA Mobility in Munich with a daring new look from Hyundai. Based on its new “Art of Steel” design, the concept is a stark contrast to the Hyundai vehicles on the road today.

Hyundai took the “Aero Hatch” design to the next level, deeming it “a new typology that reimagines the compact EV silhouette.” And that it does.

When it arrives in production form in mid-2026, it’s expected to take the IONIQ 3 name as a smaller, more affordable sibling to the IONIQ 5.

Hyundai is set to unveil the electric hatchback next spring with an official launch planned in Europe in September 2026. According to Hyundai’s European boss, Xavier Martinet, the IONIQ 3 could make for the perfect EV hot hatch.

Martinet hinted that the IONIQ 3 could receive the “N” treatment, telling Auto Express that “The concept is quite sporty, and obviously you have heritage with N brand.” Hyundai’s European boss added that “it’s a fair topic to consider.”

Although it doesn’t sound too convincing, Hyundai’s head of design, Simon Loasby, called it “an opportunity.” Loasby was quick to add, “We’re not calling it N, it’s not approved yet.”

“But I think everyone in the company is realising what Europe needs, and that’s compact hot hatches, so it’s a topic for discussion,” Hyundai’s design boss added.

The Concept Three is 4,287 mm long, 1,940 mm wide, and 1,428 mm tall, with a wheelbase of 2,722 mm, or about the size of the Kia EV3 and Volkswagen ID.3. Both of which are set for hot hatch variants.

If the IONIQ 3 N does come to life, it will be the third Hyundai EV to receive the high-performance upgrade, following the IONIQ 5 N and IONIQ 6 N.

The IONIQ 5 N “was just the first lap,” according to Joon Park, vice president of Hyundai’s N Brand Management Group. He told Auto Express that Hyundai is “at the starting line” and plans to apply what it learned from its first EV hot hatch to upcoming models.

If you’re looking for an affordable electric hot hatch, Hyundai already offers one. After Hyundai cut lease prices last month, the IONIQ 5 N is now listed at just $549 per month. That’s $150 less per month than in July.

China’s surge pushes global wind toward fastest growth ever

China’s surge pushes global wind toward fastest growth ever

The global wind industry is going to hit some unprecedented growth milestones, according to Wood Mackenzie’s Global Wind Power Market Outlook for Q3 2025. The world is on track to add its second terawatt of wind capacity by 2030. To put that in perspective, it took 23 years to install the first terawatt, which was reached in 2023. The second will come in just seven.

Wind is also set for a record-breaking year in 2025. Global additions are expected to reach 170 gigawatts (GW), with more than 70 GW coming online in the last quarter of the year alone. That means Q4 could add more capacity than the total installed in any full year before 2020.

This forecast represents a 13% jump from the previous quarter, primarily driven by explosive onshore growth in China. Global wind capacity is expected to double from 2024 levels by 2032. Outside of China, the industry is also expanding, though on a slower path. Excluding China, the world will reach 1 terawatt in 2031 and double 2024 capacity by 2034.

However, policy uncertainty and the Trump administration’s hostility toward the wind industry, particularly offshore wind, are negatively impacting the US market. Trump’s big bill act (OBBBA), passed in July 2025, ends tax credits after 2027. That’s sparked a rush of projects in the short term, but it drags down the long-term outlook. For the first time, the US has fallen behind India and Germany in forecasted 10-year additions.

“China’s dominance in the wind industry is becoming more pronounced,” said Sasha Bond-Smith, research analyst at Wood Mackenzie. “While other established markets struggle with policy uncertainty and economic headwinds, we’re witnessing an unequalled concentration of growth in China that’s reshaping the industry landscape.”

China’s onshore forecast jumped this quarter thanks to rising electricity demand from data centers and electrification. Wind is proving more profitable than solar in liberalized power markets, but China’s offshore wind sector is facing challenges. Sea-use conflicts are slowing or even halting projects already under construction.

Despite those hurdles, Wood Mackenzie now projects that wind could match solar’s power output in China over the forecast period. That would cement wind’s central role in helping the country meet climate goals while keeping up with surging power demand.

Elsewhere, onshore wind remains steady across Europe, Asia Pacific, and emerging markets, with tender results and pipelines supporting progress. Offshore wind is struggling, though. High costs and failed tenders are creating setbacks in Europe and delays in emerging markets. Policymakers are under pressure to rethink contract structures to keep projects moving.

“The wind industry’s most significant transformation in decades continues to unfold,” said Kárys Prado, senior research analyst at Wood Mackenzie. “While achieving historic scale, success will depend on how effectively the industry navigates this new geography of growth and adapts to evolving policy landscapes.”
