Review: Lectric’s XP4 750 Folding Utility e-bike raises the bar on America’s favorite ride
America’s best-selling e-bike has taken a step further in its evolution, all while maintaining its accessibility to the everyday rider. Lectric’s new XP4 750 Folding Utility e-bike is quite the step up for the XP series, coming well-rounded and stocked with a solid array of features for a quality, high-performing experience. With the new descendant models, the king of the proverbial e-mobility hill has given the XP4 e-bikes more power, further traveling range, an even smoother ride, and a bunch of safety upgrades that are quite impressive for its affordable pricing. Check out our full hands-on review here.

Head to school in style on Rad Power’s new RadRunner cargo utility e-bikes with passenger gear starting from $1,499
Rad Power Bikes has launched its Back to School Sale through August 6 with up to $300 in savings on one legacy model and two of the brand’s newest models, as well as the ongoing $600 discount on the RadExpand 5 e-bike. Of course, the biggest deals in this sale are on the new RadRunner Cargo Utility e-bike with a free $109 passenger package at $1,499 shipped while the most advanced RadRunner Max Cargo Utility e-bike gets a $139 passenger package at $2,299 shipped. Unfortunately, we have yet to see any actual price cuts on this or its two counterparts since they released back at the end of April, though the RadRunner Max has already been apart of two previous free bundle promotions in the time since. The passenger packages that accompany your purchase give you a seat to convert the cargo racks into a place for passengers (as the name suggests). Head below for more on these and the other deals we’re seeing.

Starting off with the base model in this new series that is seeing its first-ever deal, the Rad Power RadRunner e-bike is one of the refreshed models (alongside the Plus counterpart) that maintains simplicity with notable improvements over its predecessor build. There’s a 750W rear hub motor paired with a 624Wh Safe Shield advanced external battery that provides 20 MPH top speeds for up to 55+ miles when its five PAS levels are activated. It’s rated to carry up to a max 320-pound payload, and sports features like a Gemma Hydraulic GA-950E brake system, puncture-protected multi-surface tires, a color display, an LED headlight and integrated taillight with brake lighting, auto ambient light sensor, daytime flashing lights, memory setting, 4 lighting modes, and more.
On the opposite side of the series’ spectrum is Rad Power’s most advanced RadRunner Max e-bike that starts with a 750W rear hub motor and a larger 672Wh semi-integrated battery for 60+ miles of pedal-assisted travel at up to a 28 MPH max speed. You can also add the new range extender here alongside an additional battery to double that travel range to 120+ miles. It comes decked out with a wide array of physical and smart features – the latter of which includes Apple Find My integration, Bluetooth proximity locking, a 328-foot radar, and more. There’s also the same puncture-protected multi-surface tires, Exsho suspension, hydraulic brakes, and much more.

Get Christmas pricing in July through Lectric’s latest sale with up to $654 e-bike bundles starting from $999
Just as we published our in-depth hands-on review of Lectric’s new XP4 750 Folding Utility e-bike, the brand has now launched its Christmas in July Sale, which is seeing up to $654 in free bundled gear accompany its e-bikes. Among the offers, we’re seeing increased gear with the popular XPress 750 Commuter e-bike that gets a $410 bundle at $1,299 shipped. These bundles would fetch $1,709 were the savings not in the form of the free gear, which has been increased since its Prime Day Sale two weeks ago – plus, these models are eligible for the $200 off spare battery promotion that you’ll find on the landing page. The packaged gear contains a rear cargo rack, a fender set, an Elite headlight upgrade, a suspension seat post, and a waterproof pannier bag.

First cash savings hit Autel’s new MaxiCharger AC Pro 80A level 2 EV charger at $899
By way of its official Amazon storefront, Autel is now offering the first cash savings on its new MaxiCharger AC Pro 80A Business Level 2 EV Charger to $899 shipped. It hit the market a few months ago carrying a $1,299 price tag, which is where it’s currently priced directly from the brand’s website. This is the very first price cut we’ve spotted on this powerful charging solution, with the 31% markdown here cutting $400 from the tag while also setting the bar for future discounts down the road.

Save $300 on Rad Power’s multi-terrain RadRover 6 Plus e-bike at its second-best $1,299 price through the weekend
Running alongside its Back to School Sale that will be lasting through August 6, Rad Power Bikes is now also offering a weekend flash sale on its popular RadRover 6 Plus Step-Thru Fat-Tire e-bike for $1,299 shipped. Coming down from its $1,599 price tag, you can save $300 through July 27 for the second-best price we have tracked. We’ve been seeing it drop down to $1,399 a lot during 2025, with today’s deal only being beaten out by the $1,199 low that we briefly saw back at the start of the year.

Segway’s Navimow i Series of robot mowers tackle up to 1/4 acres at a time starting from $799
Segway Navimow is offering up to 20% discounts on its i Series of robots, starting with the i105 Robot Lawn Mower down at $799 shipped that is also matching at Amazon, while the upgraded i110 Robot Lawn Mower has been dropped to $1,099 shipped and also matching at Amazon. These models haven’t seen as frequent discounts from their $999 and $1,299 starting rates in 2025 like the H Series of robots, with them both having seen a drop to $849 and $1,099 in June and falling to their lowest $749 and $999 rates during the Prime Day window. If you missed out on those low prices, you’ll be getting them at your second-best price of 2025, saving you $200 while upgrading your lawn care routine with autonomous support.

Save up to $870 on Anker’s EverFrost 2 portable electric coolers and bundles starting from $649
Anker is offering some post-Prime Day extended savings through the weekend on its SOLIX Everfrost 2 Portable Electric Coolers, starting with the 40L single-zone model at $649 shipped, and also matching at Amazon. Normally going for $900 outside of sales, we’ve only seen this rate beaten out by the $600 pre-launch deal back in February, as well as the recent drops to $630 and the $599 low during Prime Day sales. If you missed out on those earlier deals, you can score your ice-free cooling/freezing solution at the next best rate with $251 in savings at the third-lowest post-launch price. You can also check out our hands-on review of the larger 58L dual-zone model here.

Clip grass for up to two miles with Greenworks’ 80V 16-inch carbon fiber cordless string trimmer at $209
Amazon is offering the Greenworks 80V 16-inch Carbon Fiber Cordless String Trimmer for $209.46 shipped. It’s coming down from its usual $300 price tag, while remaining priced in full directly from the brand’s website. This is the second time in 2025 that we’ve seen discounts take things to $209, which is beaten out this year by a drop to $206 in April and falls to the $199 low, most recently during the Prime Day event two weeks ago. You’re looking at the fourth-lowest price we have tracked, which doesn’t sit much higher than the other rates – just $9 above the low overall – with $91 in total savings here while it lasts.

admin![Finance a new EV for less: EV deals with 0% interest this September [update]](https://i0.wp.com/electrek.co/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/08/Polestar-first-electric-SUV-US-1.jpeg?resize=1200,628&quality=82&strip=all&ssl=1)

Lease deals get all the headlines, but 75% of new car buyers still finance their cars, indicating that they want to own their vehicles once the payments are done. If that sounds like you, and you’ve been holding out for relief from sky-high payments, a wave of new EVs are now available with 0% financing — making it one of the best months yet to buy a new EV.
UPDATE: two more sporty electric crossovers make the list!
Every month, Electrek readers looking for great deals on a new EV flock to our lease deal posts. Recently, however, the comments have been asking another crucial question: what about EV deals for the people who want to buy, instead of leas?
You asked, we listened. This roundup is for that 75% of new car buyers who choose to finance their cars instead of lease — so here’s a list of all the 0% financing deals on EVs you can get in September, 2025.

As I put this list together, I realized there were plenty of ways for me to present this information. In the end, I decided to present these deals in alphabetical order, by brand name (make). And, as for which deals are new this month? You’re just gonna have to check the list. Enjoy!
Acura ZDX

New for the 2024 model year, the Acura ZDX uses GM Ultium battery and drive technology, but the styling, interior, and infotainment are all Honda, delivering GM-level parts support with Honda-level fit, finish, and quality. Add in standard Apple CarPlay support, 0% financing for up to 72 months, and $7,500 customer cash through September 30th, and the ZDX becomes easily one of the best sporty crossover values on the market.
Chevy Equinox EV

With an impressive combination of affordability, practicality, and advanced features, the Chevy Equinox is a standout EV. And with an EPA-estimated range of up to 319 miles and a starting price under $35,000, it’s no wonder they’re flying off dealer lots.
For well-qualified buyers, Chevrolet is offering 0% APR financing for up to 60 months through GM Financial through September 30th. That offer can be paired with the $7,500 federal EV tax credit (which you can claim at the dealer), along with up to $1,250 in additional discounts for Costco members, depending on membership level.
Dodge Charger

Dodge is hoping that at least a few muscle car enthusiasts with some extra cash will find their way to a Dodge store and ask for the meanest, loudest, tire-shreddingest muscle car on the dealer’s lot without caring too much about what’s under the hood.
For them, Dodge has the new electric Charger with up to 670 battery-backed horsepower. And if you still owed money on the Hemi you just totaled, Dodge will help get the deal done on its latest retro-tastic ride with a $7,750 retail cash allowance or 0% financing for up to 72 months — and that’s before any dealer discounts.
Ford F-150 Lightning

America’s best-selling electric truck offers V2x technology, a nationwide dealer network, a universe of aftermarket accessories, and a look that blends into the crowd. This month, this proven pickup adds 0% interest financing for up to 72 months. Ford Pro customer can get access to advanced telematics and, in some cases, even get help sourcing additional grants and rebates, too.
Ford Mustang Mach-E

With a few early examples now well into six-digit miles with no signs of slowing down, it’s no wonder the first four-door, all-electric Ford Mustang is outselling its gas-powered rivals (by more than 2:1). For 2025, the Mach-E Mustangs offer more range than before (up to 320 miles), faster charging (by nearly 6 minutes to 80%), and even a hardcore rally version. With 0% financing available for up to 75 months in some markets, expect the car to have no trouble finding buyers through September 30th.
GMC Hummer EV

The biggest of GM’s Ultium-based EVs are seriously impressive machines, with shockingly quick acceleration, plus on-road handling that seems to defy the laws of physics once you understand that these are, essentially, medium-duty trucks. This month, GMC is doing its best to move out its existing inventory with 0% financing for well-qualified buyers plus $1,250 in discounts for select Costco members. So, if you’re a fan of heavy metal you’ll definitely want to stop by your local GMC dealer and give the Hummer EV a test drive.
GMC Sierra EV

In addition to offering a solid Powerwall alternative, these big Ultium-based EVs from GM’s “three letter bandit” commercial brand are just as impressive as their Hummer stablemates, but one-up the Hummers with heavy-duty towing prowess and the added capability of bidirectional charging baked in. And, like the Hummer, GMC is doing its best to move out its existing inventory of Denali and AT4 model Sierra EVs with 0% financing for well-qualified buyers plus $1,250 in discounts for select Costco members.
Honda Prologue

Like the Acura ZDX at the top of this list, the Honda Prologue was blends the excellent GM Ultium EV platform with Honda sensibilities and Apple CarPlay to create a winning combination. It’s no surprise that it’s one of the top-selling electric crossovers — and to move out as many as possible before the $7,500 federal tax credit goes away, Honda is offering 0% APR for up to 60 plus up to an additional $2,000 in Honda Loyalty or Conquest cash.
Hyundai IONIQ 6

The last of the streamliners, the IONIQ 6 has influences from Ferry Porsche and Raymond Loewy without looking like a copy of either. In addition to being a future classic, it’s efficient, comfortable, quick, offers up to 361 miles of range, can charge just about anywhere, and (now through the end of the month), can be financed with 0% interest for up to 48 months or $7,500 in customer bonus cash on all trims.
If you’re flexible on color, Hyundai dealers with “aged inventory” will give you an extra $1,000, for $8,500 total incentive dollars on your IONIQ 6.
Jeep Wagoneer S

The Jeep Wagoneer S is a slick, capable, street-oriented EV that’s been inexplicably saddled with a sloping roof and spoiler that eats away at the electric SUV’s ultimate utility (that’s the “U” part), but if you can get past that minor caveat, this first-ever battery-powered Jeep is ready to deliver. With $7,750 retail cash allowance or 0% financing for up to 72 months before dealer discounts through September 30th, the Wagoneer S might just be the best EV deal going.
Kia Niro EV

Kia is doing a phenomenal job moving its supercar-baiting EV6 and ultra-capable EV9 family trucksters, but the under-mentioned and underrated little Niro EV seems like it could use a little help. To that end, Kia is offering 0% interest financing or up to $7,500 customer cash on select examples of the little urban runabout now through September 30th.
Lexus RZ

Starting at “just” $55,175, the Lexus RZ promises up to 266 miles of EPA-rated range from a 72.8 kWh battery in the base RZ300e (and 224 from the top-shelf RZ450e). With up to 308 hp and over 195 lb-ft of instant, all-electric torque, the RZ promises to be one Lexus’ sportier rides in any trim.
This month, several Lexus dealers are advertising interest-free financing on select RZ models for up to 72 months. Check with your local Lexus dealer for more informatoin.
Nissan Ariya

I’ve already said that the Nissan Ariya didn’t get a fair shake. If you click that link, you’ll read about a car that offers solid driving dynamics, innovative interior design, and all the practicality that makes five-passenger crossovers the must-haves they’ve become for most families. With up to 289 miles of EPA-rated range, Tesla Supercharger access, and 0% interest from Nissan for up to 72 months or up to $10,000 Customer Cash (that’s not a typo) undecided EV buyers could do a lot worse than to give the Ariya a chance to win them over.
Polestar 3

Sleek, Scandinavian, and seriously quick, the Polestar 3 is the lovechild of Swedish brand Volvo and Chinese brand Geely’s billions. As such, it delivers both Scandinavian style and high-tech substance with dual-motor power, a minimalistic, luxurious cabin, and Android Auto baked right in. The Polestar 3 was designed to turn heads while keeping daily driving effortless, and through the month of September, it’s sure to turn even more heads with 0% financing for up to 72 months through Polestar Financial Services and a $10,000 Clean Vehicle Incentive in some markets.
Put it all together, and the Polestar 3 stands out as one of the most compelling premium EV SUV deals of the month.
Subaru Solterra

The first-ever electric Subaru had a rocky start (no pun intended), but this off-road-ready sibling of the Toyota bZ4X seems like a solid mid-size electric crossover with some outdoorsy vibes and left-leaning granola style that offers more than enough utility to carry your mountain bikes to the trail or your inflatables out to the pond. Add in 227 miles of range, some big discounts, and 0% financing for up to 72 months, and this should be a great month for electric Subaru fans to drive home in a new Solterra.
Volkswagen ID.4

One of the most popular legacy EVs both in the US and Europe, the ID.4 offers Volkswagen build quality and zippy around-town handling. Everyone I know who has one loves it, and VW dealers are getting aggressive with discounts, making this fast-charging, 291 mile EPA-rated range, 5-star safety rated EV a value proposition that’s tough to beat.
This month, get a Volkswagen ID.4 with 0% financing for up to 72 months or up to $5,000 customer cash. You’ll need to do some math to see which offer works best for you.

This is it: the FIRST pure electric vehicle to wear a Lamborghini badge [video]

admin![This is it: the FIRST pure electric vehicle to wear a Lamborghini badge [video]](https://i0.wp.com/electrek.co/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2025/09/lamborghini_pwc.jpg?resize=1200,628&quality=82&strip=all&ssl=1)

True to Lamborghini’s legacy of speed and excess, the first battery-electric vehicle to wear the raging bull is also the fastest of its kind. Only this time, the badge isn’t on a car — it’s on a personal watercraft. Meet the all-new Seabob SE63 jet sled.
Co-developed with the Italian supercar brand, the Lamborghini-badged Seabob SE63 features a more powerful jet propulsion system than any of the company’s existing personal jet sleds, and is fitted with a carbon fiber motor shaft as a further nod to the Italian luxury brand’s high-performance heritage.
Here’s the surprising thing, though: the new Seabob SE63 isn’t inspired by a specific road-going Lamborghini. Instead, it gets its name from the Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63 sport yacht built by the Italian Sea Group shipyards.
Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63

Why, yes – I will take just about any excuse to post pictures of sexy Italian super yachts in bright, vibrant colors. Thanks for asking!

But we’re not here for superyachts. We’re here for super sleds, and German PWC specialist Cayago set out to make this one, “most powerful Seabob ever.” As such, the SE63 is designed to be grab-and-go personal jet sled that delivers significantly higher speeds than its Seabob stablemates. In fact, its makers say it’s fast enough to keep up with sharks and dolphins.
The riding experience is not just ‘a bit faster’, but thrillingly intense and unrestrained. Acceleration off the start line delivers an immediate adrenaline rush. Thrust, agility, top speed: everything is designed for maximum performance and pure emotion.
The new SE63 backs up those claims with a 6.3 kW (~8.5 hp) electric motor. And, while that hardly makes it a supercar, in the world of ePWCs, it’s enough to make the SE63 a monster. The SE63 also features a bigger, more energy-dense battery than other Seabobs, a combination good for up to 60 minutes of go-fast, water-based fun.

The SE63 can recharge its batteries with a standard power outlet in just 1.5 hours, and be back on the water for even more fun in the sun.
The Seabob SE63 made its debut earlier this week at the Cannes Yachting Festival. Production is set to begin in early 2026, meaning you’ll be able to get yours just in time for the summer 2026 beach season. Prices have yet to be announced – but, like any Lamborghini product, if you have to ask you probably can’t afford it.

Tesla influencers tried Elon Musk’s coast-to-coast self-driving, crashed before 60 miles

A duo of Tesla shareholder-influencers tried to complete Elon Musk’s coast-to-coast self-driving ride that he claimed Tesla would be able to do in 2017 and they crashed before making it about 60 miles.
In 2016, Elon Musk infamously said that Tesla would complete a fully self-driving coast-to-coast drive between Los Angeles and New York by the end of 2017.
The idea was to livestream or film a full unedited drive coast-to-coast with the vehicle driving itself at all times.
We are in 2025 and Tesla never made that drive.

Despite the many missed autonomous driving goals, many Tesla shareholders believe that the company is on the verge of delivering unsupervised self-driving following the rollout of its ‘Robotaxi’ fleet in Austin, which requires supervision from Tesla employees inside the vehicles, and improvements to its “Full Self-Driving” (FSD) systems inside consumer vehicles, which is still only a level 2 driver assist system that requires driver attention at all times as per Tesla.
Two of these Tesla shareholders and online influencers attempted to undertake a coast-to-coast drive between San Diego, CA, and Jacksonville, FL, in a Tesla Model Y equipped with the latest FSD software update.
They didn’t make it out of California without crashing into easily avoidable road debris that badly damaged the Tesla Model Y:
In the video, you can see that the driver doesn’t have his hands on the steering wheel. The passenger spots the debris way ahead of time. There was plenty of time to react, but the driver didn’t get his hands on the steering wheel until the last second.

In a follow-up video, the two Tesla influencers confirmed that the Model Y had a broken sway bar bracket and damaged suspension components. The vehicle is also throwing out a lot of warnings.
They made it about 2.5% of the planned trip on Tesla FSD v13.9 before crashing the vehicle.
Electrek’s Take
Tesla shareholders used to discuss this somewhat rationally back in the day, but now that Tesla’s EV business is in decline and the stock price depends entirely on the self-driving and robot promises, they no longer do.
I recall when Musk himself used to say that when you reach 99% self-driving, it is when the “march of the 9s” begins, and you must achieve 99.999999999% autonomy to have a truly useful self-driving system. He admitted that this is the most challenging part as the real-world is unpredictable and hard to simulate – throwing a lot of challenging scenario at you, such as debris on the road.
That’s where Tesla is right now. The hard part has just started. And there’s no telling how long it will take to get there. If someone is telling you that they know, they are lying. I don’t know. My best estimate is approximately 2-3 years and a new hardware suite.
However, competition, mainly Waymo, began its own “march of the 9s” about five years ago.
Tesla is still years behind, and something like this drive by these two Tesla influencers proves it.
I was actually in a similar accident in a Tesla Model 3 back in 2020. I rented a Model 3 on Turo for a trip to Las Vegas from Los Angeles.
I ended up driving over a blown-out truck tire in the middle of the road like this. I was Autopilot, but I don’t know if the car saw it. I definitely saw it, but it was a bit late as I was following a truck that just drove over it. I had probably less than 2 seconds to react. I applied the brakes, but my choices were driving into a ditch on the right or into a car in the left lane.
I managed to reduce the force of the impact with the braking, but the vehicle jumped a bit like in this video. There wasn’t really any damage to the front, but the bottom cover was flapping down. I taped it together at the next gas station and I was able to continue the trip without much issue.
However, after returning it to the Turo owner and having the suspension damage evaluated by Tesla, the repair job was estimated to be roughly $10,000. I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a similar situation with this accident.
