Navee’s ST3 Pro electric scooter with Find My, regen brakes, and more takes you 47 miles to class at $684

By way of its official Amazon storefront, Navee is offering its new ST3 Pro Electric Scooter at $683.99 shipped, after redeeming the on-page promo code for an additional 10% savings, which beats out the direct pricing by $77. This scooter launched in March with a $1,299 MSRP that has since fallen to $950 at full price in the time since. We’ve seen discounts mostly taking the costs down to $760, though during the brand’s direct Prime Day Sale we saw extra savings take things to a $660 low. If you missed out on that low rate, you can score it at the next best price here, with a combined 28% markdown giving you $266 in total savings. Head below to learn more about this model and be sure to keep your eyes peeled for our upcoming hands-on review.

Navee is really upping the ante with its new flagship ST3 Pro electric scooter that certainly stands up to many of Segway’s popular models both in performance and pricing. It’s been equipped with a 600W motor that peaks at 1,350W to better tackle up to 28% inclines while also providing faster acceleration to its max 25 MPH speeds, depending on which of its riding modes you’ve activated. The 597Wh battery gives it plenty of juice to carry you up to 46.6 miles, while the new damping arm suspension system smooths out rides on uneven pavement, as well as bumpy off-road terrain. The inclusion of an eABs brake (along with hydraulic and drum brakes) not only guarantees stopping power, but the regenerative capabilities help to extend travel times with recycled momentum up to its impressive maximum.

It comes packed with quality features that you’d expect in a higher-priced model, including Apple Find My integration so you always know where your scooter is and can track it down in case of theft, though they’ll also have to get through the proximity locking features too, making it quite a secure ride. Your fun won’t be stopped prematurely thanks to the self-healing tires, and riding at night is all the safer thanks to the ambient lighting located under the footboard that sports 15 different modes. There’s plenty more too, like the traction control system, auto-on headlight, a taillight with brake lighting functionality, integrated turn signals in the handlebars, and much more.

Streamline your pool testing with Aiper’s HydroComm smart 5-in-1 monitor at a second-ever $250 low

Through its official Amazon storefront, Aiper is offering its HydroComm Smart Pool Monitor at $249.99 shipped in both colorways, beating out its direct website pricing by $30. This newer device has only been on the market since mid-April when it launched at $300 before rising to its $500 full price tag, though lately, the MSRP has dropped to $400. Discounts at Amazon have mostly kept prices between $340 and $400 in the time since it launched, with Prime Day giving us the first drop to $250, which is coming back around for a second time here while the savings last. Taking advantage of this deal gives you Prime Day pricing once more, cutting $150 off the going rate for the best price we have tracked.

Heybike has launched an early access Back to School sale that will run through August 4 with up to $500 discounts across its e-bike lineup. One of the most popular models that makes a perfect companion for students on campus is the brand’s Mars 2.0 Fat-Tire Folding e-bike that is down at $999 shipped during this event and comes with a free front basket and rear large basket ($198 value). While it carries a $1,499 full price tag, discounts often see it down at this same rate during sales, with it only beaten out by the short-term $900 rate we saw from Best Buy earlier in the month and the $899 low that occasionally pops up in flash events. You’ll be saving $500 off the bike and $698 in total with the free gear, with the option to even upgrade to a more powerful motor for $100 more.

An electric Subaru BRZ? Don’t rule out an EV version just yet

An electric Subaru BRZ? Don't rule out an EV version just yet

Subaru-BRZ-EV

The Subaru BRZ may live on as an EV after all. Subaru wants its share of the sports car market, and an electric BRZ could hit the sweet spot.

Is Subaru launching an electric BRZ?

Subaru discontinued the BRZ in Europe in 2020 after the first generation. Although its twin, the Toyota GR86, was sold until the 2024 model year, the BRZ was released as a US-only model.

In its third generation, it could return as an EV. Speaking with Autocar, Subaru’s European head, David Dello Stritto, said, “Our options are open,” hinting that the BRZ could make a comeback in electric form.

Subaru’s global EV product boss, Inoue Masahiko, confirmed an electric version of the sports car “was under consideration.” He added that Subaru has extensively looked into an EV version of the BRZ with its partner, Toyota.

Masahiko explained that “We did consider electrifying the BRZ and GR86, but the win-win relationship is more important.” So far, “We can’t get the kind of benefits from both sides,” he added.

Subaru is already launching several new electric vehicles in Europe, including the new Uncharted, E-Outback (known as Trailseeker in the US), and an updated Solterra SUV.

Stritto said that an electric sports car will depend on the success of these models first, especially the Uncharted. According to Subaru’s European boss, the Japanese automaker feels “very positively about Subaru enthusiasts, but we need to see how Uncharted does first.”

As for an “electrified” powertrain, or hybrid, Masahiko said the vehicle’s packaging “would make it difficult,” adding an EV version would be “easier” to create.

The comments come after Stritto told Autocar last week that a new entry-level EV could also be in the works. However, that will also depend on how well the Uncharted sells.

For those in the US, don’t worry – Subaru is not planning to discontinue the BRZ. If it did launch as an EV, would you consider one? It would go up against the new Hyundai IONIQ 6 N and Tesla Model 3 Performance.

Nissan is getting ready for the new LEAF EV with a one-stop clean energy shop

Nissan is getting ready for the new LEAF EV with a one-stop clean energy shop

Nissan-EV-shop

The new Nissan LEAF will arrive at dealerships this fall, and to go with it, the company has introduced a new one-stop shop for EV chargers and more.

Nissan launches new shop for EV chargers and more

Nissan says it’s “building more than electric vehicles” after launching its new “Nissan Energy Marketplace” on Thursday.

The new one-stop shop was developed in collaboration with Electrum, a leading home energy marketplace provider. Electrum has built similar platforms for other major automakers, including Tesla (in certain regions), Hyundai, and Honda.

Nissan joins in just as the new and (much) improved LEAF is about to hit US dealerships. Through the new marketplace, you can research and find EV chargers, solar panels, and battery storage options.

With the help of Electrum’s Energy Advisors, you can compare prices from a nationwide network of contractors. You can also find local, state, and federal incentives to reduce your costs further.

The 2026 Nissan LEAF will reach US dealerships this fall. Dropping the iconic hatch design, the LEAF is now all grown up with a more crossover SUV-like profile.

Powered by a 75 kWh liquid-cooled lithium-ion battery, the new LEAF has up to 303 miles of driving range. That’s a significant difference from the maximum 212-mile range offered on the outgoing model, which was powered by a 62 kWh battery.

It can also recharge from 10% to 80% in as little as 35 minutes. Perhaps the best part is that the 2026 Nissan LEAF will include a built-in NACS port, enabling access to Tesla Superchargers.

Nissan has yet to reveal prices, but the new LEAF EV is expected to start in the $35,000 to $40,000 range. The new LEAF is one of ten new Nissan and Infiniti models slated to launch in North America by 2028, as the Japanese automaker seeks to revamp its brand. A new “adventure-focused” electric SUV is set to arrive around 2027, followed by a luxury Infiniti EV SUV.

The world pledged to triple renewables by 2030 – but it’s all talk so far

The world pledged to triple renewables by 2030 – but it's all talk so far

Europe wind power triple renewables 2030

Two years after world leaders pledged to triple global renewable energy capacity by 2030, a new report shows that most countries still aren’t planning like they mean it.

Global energy think tank Ember released new data showing that national targets for renewable energy have barely budged since the COP28 climate summit in 2023. Collectively, countries are now aiming for just 7.4 terawatts (TW) of renewable energy by 2030 – that’s only a 2% increase in ambition since the agreement was signed. To hit the global tripling goal of tripling renewables by 2030, we need to reach 11 TW. Right now, we’re still on track for just a doubling.

“The purpose of a national renewables target is less so to force more renewables to be built, but rather to make sure they are built smarter,” said Dr. Katye Altieri, global electricity analyst at Ember. Setting clear goals helps governments plan where to build projects and how to best integrate them into the grid, and it helps companies invest in supply chains. What results is cheaper, more secure electricity.

Since COP28, only 22 countries have updated their renewables targets, and most of them are in the European Union. Outside the EU, just seven countries have made changes. That sluggish response highlights how most governments are still moving at their usual planning pace, despite the climate emergency.

The world’s biggest electricity producers haven’t done much either. The US still doesn’t have a national 2030 renewables target — and with Trump’s rollback of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), there’s little to no chance of that happening during this administration. India’s target of 500 GW hasn’t moved, but it’s already aligned with the tripling goal. Russia has no 2030 target at all, and no plans to set one.

China is finalizing its 15th Five-Year Plan for Energy, which is expected to include a 2030 renewables target, though it’s unclear if that will be part of the plan, its nationally determined contribution (NDC), or both. South Africa is also updating its Integrated Resource Plan, which could bring a new 2030 goal.

This report lands just as countries are gearing up for COP30 in Brazil, and without urgent, ambitious target updates and a clear path to implementation, the world is set to miss the 2030 goal. That would also be a missed opportunity to boost investment, cut fossil fuel use, and build a more affordable and resilient energy system.
