With its official Memorial Day Sale having ended, EcoFlow is having its Monthly Madness promotions for members (free to sign up) that include up to 57% in initial discounts, as well as extra savings on orders over $3,000, and plenty of EcoCredit earning and reward options for even more savings (more on these below). Among the lineup, we’re seeing the biggest discount (as well as returning Black Friday pricing) on the DELTA 2 Solar Generator bundle with a 220W panel for $699 shipped, which also scores you 3x or 2x EcoCredits, depending on your member level. This package normally fetches $1,648 at full price, which we’ve been seeing come as low as $749 in 2025 sales until today. You’ll be getting $949 in savings here for today and tomorrow at the lowest price we have tracked, making it a great option to kick start your solar backup setup or expand with a more humble model for temporary trips away from home.

Let’s go over the special two-day promotions that we’re seeing during EcoFlow’s EcoCredits May Madness event. First, the obvious reason these events are so great for opportunists – that purchases will score 2x EcoCredits for standard members, while Plus members earn 3x EcoCredits with their orders. For clarification, memberships are free, and you’ll gain the Plus status after accumulating at least 6,000 EcoCredits. Next, there’s the Lucky Spin wheel that you can trade EcoCredits to play twice a day for various rewards alongside the usual EcoCredit redemption options you’ll find at the bottom of the landing page. Lastly, members will be getting an automatically added extra 5% savings on any orders over $3,000.

EcoFlow’s DELTA 2 power station is a great choice for traveling companions from the brand’s many options, especially for weekend camping and road trips to keep essential devices and small appliances up and running – plus, the solar panel helps to ensure it can keep doing so should the journeys be extended. It starts with a personable 1,024Wh LiFePO4 capacity that can have two expansion batteries added to expand up to 3,072Wh. There are 15 versatile ports for plenty of connection options, with the unit delivering a steady 1,800W of power that can surge as high as 2,200W when needed.

The increased power output, as well as charging times, are increased from the brand’s X-Boost tech that is present here, giving you an 80% battery in just 50 minutes when plugged into a wall outlet, or you can wait a little longer at 80 minutes for a full battery. You’ll be able to take full advantage of the sun’s rays to recharge in nature with the included panel, while the station can go further, as it sports a max 500W input. There’s also the option to connect it to your car’s auxiliary port or utilize its max 1,100W of DC input. It’s rated for 3,000+ life cycles, giving you over eight years of everyday use, or it’s well suited to hold a charge for months on end in case of emergencies, which will see it last for a much longer timeframe.

***Note. The prices on individual models over $3,000 have had the extra 5% savings factored in below, with the discount being automatically applied in your cart, but don’t forget that savings can increase when buying multiple units together too.

Hiboy’s P7 Commuter e-bike makes a great model for first-time e-riders, while also being a great budget-friendly option for riders looking to save. Equipped with a 500W brushless rear-hub motor (800W peak) and powered by a removable IPX5-rated waterproof 14.5Ah battery, you’ll be cruising around at up to 25 MPH speeds, with three riding modes for various travel ranges. You can move off pure manual pedaling while in the standard mode, with the power-assist mode giving you the greatest 68-mile travel distance with PAS support and the pure electric mode lets you zoom around without any effort for up to 37 miles.

And of course, for the price, there are some notable features, like the 2.2-inch mountain tires (so you’re covered if your commute goes off the pavement), as well as power-off front/rear disc brakes, an IPX4 water-resistant frame rating, and more. The LCD screen gives you the usual real-time performance data and setting adjustments alongside being a personal coach, with it pushing you to do better than your previous outings’ best results, if you’re one who wants to also be staying in peak shape.

You can browse the full lineup of Hiboy’s Father’s Day EV Sale in our original coverage here. You’ll also find a ton of ongoing Memorial Day savings across e-scooters and e-bikes from all our favorite brands in our Memorial Day EV hub – with a few flash sales having ended, while others are ending in the coming days and some are running through the first week of June.

Save up to 29% on these new and legacy Greenworks electric pressure washers at return lows from $82

Amazon is now offering some significant savings and plenty of low prices across its electric pressure washers – including new and legacy models. Among them, we spotted the newer 13A 2,100 PSI Compact Electric Pressure Washer down at $159.92 shipped. This is one of several new models that hit the market back in January, with four previous discounts on the books bringing costs down from its usual $200 MSRP to this same low price. You’re looking at a 20% markdown here today, which cuts $40 off the tag at the best price we have tracked, with the savings matching direct from Greenworks’ website too.

Picking up this newer Greenworks model provides you with some ample cleaning power within a more compact casing, with it able to reach up to 2,100 PSI to clear away muck and debris on your driveway, walkways, patio furniture, the sides of your house, and more. It reaches a max 1.2 GPM flow rate, starts up with the push of a button, comes with four quick-changing nozzles (25 degree, 40 degree, soap, and turbo), and even a soap applicator that attaches to the wand – all neatly storable on the unit. Its compact form allows for easy carrying with one hand, and stores away without taking up much space.

Amazon is now offering the Greenworks 40V 21-inch Cordless Electric Self-Propelled Lawn Mower with a 5.0Ah battery down at $359.99 shipped.

This is a 20% markdown that cuts $90 off the tag for another chance at the best price we have tracked.

Greenworks is well known for being both a budget-friendly brand that is great for first-time electric buyers, as well as a reliable means to replace noisy gas guzzlers, and this 40V 21-inch self-propelled mower certainly fits the bill. It sports one of the brand’s brushless motors that provide more efficient and longer-lasting performance, with the included 5.0Ah battery giving you 40 minutes of continuous runtime to tackle up to 1/3 of an acre worth of mowing.

Tesla teases new Roadster as ‘the last best driver’s car’

Tesla teases new Roadster as 'the last best driver's car'

Tesla is again teasing the new Roadster, which is now five years late, as “the last driver’s car” before self-driving takes over.

The chicken or the egg. Is Tesla delaying the Roadster to match the development of self-driving technology, or is it delaying the development of self-driving technology to match the delayed release of the Roadster?

The prototype for the next-generation Tesla Roadster was first unveiled in 2017, and it was initially scheduled to enter production in 2020; however, it has been delayed every year since then.

It was supposed to achieve a range of 620 miles (1,000 km) and accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 1.9 seconds.

It has become a sort of running joke, and there are doubts that it will ever come to market despite Tesla’s promise of dozens of free new Roadsters to Tesla owners who participated in its referral program years ago.

Tesla used the promise of free Roadsters to help generate billions of dollars worth of sales, which Tesla owners delivered; however, the automaker never delivered on its part of the agreement.

Furthermore, many people placed deposits ranging from $50,000 to $250,000 to reserve the vehicle, which was initially scheduled to hit the market five years ago.

When unveiling the vehicle, CEO Elon Musk described it as a “halo car” that would deliver a “smack down” to gasoline vehicles.

That was almost eight years ago, and many electric hypercars have since launched and delivered this smackdown.

Tesla has partly blamed the delays on improving the next-gen Roadsters and added features like the “SpaceX package,” which is supposed to include cold air thrusters to enable the vehicle to fly – Musk has hinted.

Many people don’t believe any of it, as Tesla has said that it would launch the new Roadster every year for the last 5 years and never did.

Now, Lars Moravy, Tesla’s head of vehicle engineering, made a rare new comment about the next-generation Roadster during an interview at the X Takeover event, an annual gathering of Elon Musk cultists, last weekend.

He referred to Tesla’s next-gen Roadster as the “last best driver’s car” and said that the automaker did “some cool demos” for Musk last week:

We spent a lot of time in the last few years rethinking what we did, and why we did it, and what would make an awesome and exciting last best driver’s car. We’ve been making it better and better, and it is even a little bit more than a car. We showed Elon some cool demos last week and tech we’ve been working on, and he got a little excited.

The timing matches Musk’s recent claim that Tesla is going to have ‘the most epic demo ever, ’ but we heard that one before.

We suspected that the comment might be about the Tesla Roadster, as the CEO made the exact same comment about Roadster demos in 2019 and 2024. You will not be shocked to hear that these demos never happen.

Electrek’s Take

The “last best driver’s car” before computers are going to drive us everywhere. It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy if you continue to delay the car. It might literally be the last car ever made that way. How would we ever know?

The truth is that the Roadster was cool when it was unveiled in 2017, but that was a long time ago. Tesla would need to update the car quite a bit to make it cool in 2025, and I don’t know that cold air clusters are it. You will have extreme limitations using those.

The Roadster is almost entirely in the “put up or shut up” category for me at Tesla. They need to stop talking about it and make it happen; otherwise, I can’t believe a word.

Kia’s electric van spotted in the US again, but will it ever launch?

Kia's electric van spotted in the US again, but will it ever launch?

The PV5 is already available in several markets, but will Kia launch it in the US? After Kia’s electric van was spotted testing in the US again, a US debut could be in the works.

Is Kia’s electric van coming to the US?

Kia launched the PV5, the first dedicated electric van from its new Platform Beyond vehicle (PBV) business, in South Korea and Europe earlier this year, promising it will roll out in “other global markets” in 2026.

Will that include the US? Earlier this year, Kia’s electric van was caught charging at a station in Indiana. Photos and a video sent to Electrek by Alex Nguyen confirmed it was, in fact, the PV5.

Kia has yet to say if it will sell the PV5 in the US, likely due to the Trump Administration’s new auto tariffs. All electric vans, or PBVs, including the PV5, will be built at Kia’s Hwaseong plant in South Korea, which means they will face a stiff 25% tariff as imports.

Following another sighting, a US debut cannot be ruled out. The PV5 Passenger model was spotted by Automotive Validation Engineer Chris Higa (@Chrisediting) while testing in Arizona.

There’s no denying that’s Kia’s electric van, but it doesn’t necessarily confirm it will launch in the US. But it could make sense.

Despite record first-half sales in the US, Kia’s EV sales have fallen significantly. Sales of the EV9 and EV6 are nearly 50% less than in the first half of 2024.

To be fair, part of it is due to the new model year changeover, but Kia is also doubling down on the US market by boosting local production. Earlier this year, Kia said the EV6 and EV9 are now in full-scale production at its West Point, GA, facility.

The PV5 Passenger (shown above) is available in Europe with two battery pack options: 51.5 kWh or 71.2 kWh, rated with WLTP ranges of 179 miles and 249 miles, respectively. The Cargo variant has the same battery options but offers a WLTP range of either 181 miles or 247 miles.

During its PV5 Tech Day event last week, Kia revealed plans for seven PV5 body types, including an Open Bed (similar to a pickup), a Light Camper, and even a luxury “Prime” passenger model.

Kia is set to begin deliveries of the PV5 Passenger and Cargo Long variants in South Korea next month, followed by Europe and other global markets, starting in Q4 2025. As for a US launch, we will have to wait for the official word from Kia.
