Juiced RipRacer Fun-Sized Fat-Tire e-bike hits $899 low
Juiced Bikes is offering its RipRacer Fun-Sized Fat-Tire e-bike for $899 shipped, after using the code VIP100 at checkout. Down from its regular $1,499 price tag, this e-bike was featured in many holiday and flash sales throughout 2023, often landing between $1,099 and $999. Today’s deal comes in as a 40% markdown off the going rate to beat out its Black Friday and October closeout sale prices by $100 and return to the all-time lowest price we have tracked – the best price since August.
The RipRacer comes in three colorways (blue, green, and black) and is equipped with a 750W motor and an upgraded G2 52V lithium-ion battery allowing it to reach top speeds of 20 to 28 MPH depending on your throttle and pedal assist usage, while also offering a range of 35 to 55+ miles. It features five levels of pedal assistance alongside a standard cadence sensor. You’ll also receive a more humble collection of accessories than some of the brand’s other models like hydaulic disc brakes, a 1,050-lumen headlight paired with a 2-mode taillight, knobby fat-tires for smoother off-road joyrides, and a back-lit LCD display that keeps you informed of real-time metrics as well as allowing you to adjust riding settings.
Snow Joe 24V 21-inch Cordless Snow Blower now $300
Through the end of the day, Best Buy is offering the Snow Joe 24V 21-inch Single Stage Cordless Electric Snow Blower with four 12Ah batteries for $299.99 shipped. Down from a regular $800 price tag, today’s deal comes in as a massive 63% markdown off the going rate, beating our previous mention by $150 and marking a new all-time low. A major detail about this particular package is the inclusion of four 12Ah batteries and two chargers, which significantly increases its runtime to cover far more area. You’ll find the same 24V snow blower with only two 4.0Ah batteries as the more common option on Amazon for around $400, for example, that only gives it a 40-minute lifespan – whereas finding it with the four 12.0Ah batteries will often start at a $1,400 list price.
Equipped with a 2,800W brushless motor powered by a IONMAX battery system, this snow blower is able to clear a 21-inch wide and 12-inch deep path, throwing the snow up to 30 feet out of the way. You won’t have to worry about ice, either, as its 2-blade steel auger is able to break it up and cut through at faster rates, all while its weather-resistant steel body stands up to challenging conditions. It features a variable speed control for the auger to give you better handling over the device, with 3W LED headlights as well for better visibility when doing nighttime or early-morning clearings.
Amazon Basics Rechargeable AAA battery 12-pack now $14
Amazon is offering its Basics 12-pack Rechargeable AAA NiMH High-Capacity Batteries for $13.67 shipped. Free delivery is available for Prime members and on orders over $25. Down from its typical $25 price tag, it saw plenty of ups and downs during 2023, hitting the all-time low in January and keeping between $18 and $11 for the rest of the year. Today’s deal comes in as a 45% markdown off the going rate, beating out our previous mention by $3 and costing you approximately $1.14 per battery, which lands among some of the lowest prices we have tracked. All-in-all this 12-pack sits just $4 above the all-time low. You’ll receive 12 reliable AAA batteries with an individual capacity of 850mAh, ideal for small toys, remotes, digital cameras, and other devices. They can each be recharged up to 500 times, and offer a shelf-life of 2 years for everyday use.
While the other sized packs are discounted at various levels, there are a few that are seeing bigger markdowns than usual, with both offering extra 5% to 8% savings when you buy two or more. These discounts will apply themselves during checkout.

Why tech giants such as Microsoft, Amazon, Google and Meta are betting big on nuclear power
Isuzu is giving Red Bull electrified wings – the iconic drinks company is officially the first to put the production version of its new-for-2025 Isuzu NRR-EV medium duty electric box truck to work in North America.
Deployed by Red Bull North America, these first-ever customer Isuzu NRR-EV medium duty trucks are busy delivering cans of Red Bull products throughout Southern California with zero tailpipe emissions, marking the first time the best-selling low-cab/cabover box truck brand in the US can make such a claim.
“Today marks a major milestone for the industry and for us. Watching the NRR-EV evolve from a concept to a viable operating product is a big deal,” explains Shaun Skinner, President of Isuzu Commercial Truck of America. “Our teams and our clients have put so much time and effort into making this happen, and it speaks to our teamwork and dedication to more sustainable transportation solutions. It is no longer just a plan, we have zero-emission trucks serving our customers’ needs!”
The NRR-EV is available with a number of different battery configurations, ranging from three 20 kWh battery packs (60 kWh total) up to nine 20 kWh battery packs, with five and seven pack options in between. The nine-pack version is good for up to 235 miles of range with a 19,500 lb. GVWR. The batteries, regardless of configuration, send power to a 150 kW (200 hp) electric motor with 380 lb-ft. of torque available at 0 rpm.
For “Red Bull” duty, the Isuzu trucks ship with a 100 kWh total battery capacity, and are fitted a lightweight, all-aluminum 6-bay beverage body, the vehicle’s design maintains its cargo capacity. The NRR-EV’s 19,500 lb. GVWR (Class 5) chassis, combined with the lightweight body and “big enough” battery spec provides Red Bull’s delivery drivers a hefty, 9,000 lb. payload.
Isuzu began assembling NRR-EV trucks at its Charlotte, Michigan assembly plant in August 2024. Customer deliveries are set to begin nationally in Q1 of 2025.
Electrek’s Take
Isuzu’s N-series trucks are everywhere – and for good reason. They’re dependable, they’re affordable, and they have a nationwide network of GM dealers supporting them. I am a huge fan of these trucks, and can’t wait to sample the electric version from behind the wheel.

Hyundai is gearing up to launch its first all-electric minivan. Production is set to begin next year, and the EV minivan is expected to play a key role in its global expansion. Here’s what to expect.
Hyundai will launch its first EV minivan in 2025
The Staria is Hyundai’s successor to the Starex, its multi-purpose vehicle (MPV), launched in 2021. Like its replacement, the Staria is offered in a minivan, minibus, van, pickup, and several other configurations like limousines and ambulances.
Although the Staria was launched with only diesel and gas-powered powertrain options, Hyundai added its first hybrid model in February.
Hyundai will introduce the Staria Electric, its first electric minivan, next year. In March, Hyundai unveiled its new ST1 electric business van, which is based on the Staria. However, the minivan will get its own EV model in 2025. The ST1 is Hyundai’s first commercial EV. It’s available in refrigerated van and basic chassis cab options.
Hyundai is already building gas-powered and hybrid Staria models at its Ulsan plant in Korea, but it is preparing to begin producing the EV version.
According to the Korean media outlet Newsis, sources close to the matter on Friday said Hyundai will begin converting a production line (Line 1) at its Ulsan Plant 4 for Staria Electric around January 25, 2024.
The expansion is part of Hyundai’s broader plan to introduce 21 electric vehicles by 2030, accounting for over 2 million in sales.
A report from The Korean Economic Daily in June claimed Hyundai would expand Staria EV production into Europe starting in the first half of 2026. European-made models will be sold domestically and overseas, like in Australia and Thailand. Hyundai aims to sell 15,000 to 20,000 of the EV model annually.
The Staria Electric will be powered by Hyundai’s fourth-generation 84 kWh EV batteries and will have over 10% more capacity than the ST1.
Hyundai sold 37,769 Starias through the first 11 months of 2024. Last year, Hyundai Staria sales reached 39,780, including domestic and export sales. By the end of the year, Staria sales are expected to exceed 40,000 for the first time.
Hyundai’s sister company also has big plans to expand its commercial business with a new lineup of EVs based on its PBV (Platform Beyond Vehicle). Its first electric van, the PV5, was spotted earlier this year as a potential Volkswagen ID.Buzz challenger.
