Heybike summer sale takes $500 off e-bikes with free accessories and bundle options, starting from $999

Heybike has a summer sale that is now in full swing, taking up to $500 off e-bikes, with bundle deals available as well as free accessories that are included along with your purchase, depending on the model. While the brand’s popular Ranger Foldable Cargo e-bike is sold out, the next biggest discount is on the Mars 2.0 Folding e-bike for $999 shipped. Normally fetching $1,499 outside of these sales, this upgraded model has seen significantly fewer and smaller discounts than its predeccessor. It’s been included in Best Buy’s 24-hour flash sales a few times so far in 2024, usually to this price or $100 higher, though the biggest we’ve seen this year is a drop to $899 back during Valentine’s Day sales. Today’s deal is a 33% markdown that saves you $500 and returns it to the second-lowest price we have tracked – just $100 above the all-time low from February.

The Mars 2.0 e-bike comes in four colors (pumpkin orange, dusty blue, granite grey, and leather black) and equipped with a 750W (1,200W peak) rear hub motor alongside a removable 48V battery that can carry the bike up to 28 MPH for up to 45 miles on a single charge. There is an option to upgrade the motor to a 1,000W model (with 1,800W peak) for $200 more that bumps the max speed up to 32 MPH alongside improved performance on inclines, an increased load capacity, faster acceleration, and more.

You can customize your riding experience through its five levels of pedal assist modes or switch over to the 7-speed gears while the 4-inch wide fat tires ensure effortless handling when you go off the beaten path – “offering superior traction, stability, and a smoother ride compared to conventional bikes.” The bike’s frame can easily be folded up in seconds for quick storage or transport and also features hydraulic disc brakes (1,000W motor model has more advanced versions), a rear cargo rack, head and taillights with braking functionality, a shock-absorbing seat, as well as a smart LCD display that gives you real-time performance statuses and allows for setting adjustments. As part of Heybike’s summer sale, this e-bike also comes with a free front basket and a free rear cargo basket.

EGO Power+ 56V 42-inch Z6 zero-turn riding mower within post for Heybike summer sale

Amazon is offering the EGO POWER+ 56V 42-inch Z6 Zero Turn Riding Mower with four 10.0Ah batteries and an extra two 5.0Ah batteries for $4,999 shipped. Usually fetching $4,999, this is the lowest price drop that we have tracked for this bundle, with only three previous discounts to speak of – the first two dropping costs to $5,499, while last month we saw it hit the $4,999 low for the first time. You can find other third-party sellers offering this mower with its regular four batteries alone at the same discounted rate, meaning this bundle from Amazon is giving you two extra 5.0Ah batteries for no added cost. There’s also a similar bundle on the mower with four 12.0Ah batteries and an e-steer wheel at $5,499, down from $6,597.

This riding mower from EGO Power+ is powered by the four 10.0Ah batteries in order to cover up to 2 acres of land on one continuous run (extended a bit more with the two extra batteries). Its 42-inch weather-resistant steel cutting deck houses four independent brushless motors, which total up to rival a 22-horsepower engine, moving it at a max speed of 8 MPH. There are 10 cutting heights to choose from, ranging from 1.5 inches and 4.5 inches, with three different driving modes and a 3-in-1 functionality for mulching, bagging, and/or side discharging. It also sports some premium features like the 32 LED lights laid out on its front, sides, and rear for those early morning or late evening jobs – and even Bluetooth connectivity and a USB charging port for devices.

EAST OAK 30-inch Digital electric smoker within post for Heybike summer sale

EAST OAK’S 30-inch Digital Electric Smoker hits $255 low

Amazon is offering the EAST OAK 30-inch Digital Electric Smoker for $254.99 shipped. Normally going for $300, this appliance has seen five previous discounts since the new year began, with the first four dropping to the same $270 rate once per month from January through April, and the most recent taking things further to the $255 low in May for the first time since September of 2023, which is repeated here in today’s deal.

Sporting a compact, vertical design with four racks to place your meat and veggies, this electric smoker utilizes 800W of power and wood chips for that smoky flavor you love with reduced emissions lower than that of charcoal. Standing 18.97 inches by 17.56 inches by 32.44 inches, with 725 square-feet of cooking space, its door has a glass section allowing you to directly see your food at its various stages of cooking, with a meat probe for monitoring the food’s internal temperatures. It features a digital control panel that gives you real-time readouts of temperatures and times, along with a remote for controlling its settings when not directly in front of it. Its side-loading wood chip loader can hold enough to continue cooking for 2 to 3 hours without needing to be refilled, maintaining a temperature range between 100 degrees and 275 degrees Fahrenheit for that low and slow cooking that yields the most tender of BBQ. Also comes with a water bowl and a drip pan.

You’ll find a smaller and cheaper option in the EAST OAK 30-inch Black model from the same line as the above model, currently available for $200, down from $230. This model sports the same general design as the above smoker, with one major and instantly obvious difference: there is no window to view inside while its in use, so you will have to either trust whatever recipe you’re going by, or be ok with occasionally opening it up and losing heat/smoke.

Summer e-bike deals!

Hyundai's new IONIQ 6 already looks like a major upgrade on the road [Video]

Hyundai's-new-IONIQ-6

Hyundai’s electric fastback is getting a fresh new look. Just a week after unveiling the redesigned IONIQ 6, we are already getting our first look at it out in the real world. Hyundai’s new IONIQ 6 was spotted driving in Korea, and from the looks of it, this could be a major upgrade.

Hyundai’s new IONIQ 6 looks sleek on the road

Launched in 2022, Hyundai’s “Electrified Streamliner” was expected to challenge the Tesla Model 3 as one of the few electric sedans on the market.

Prices start at under $38,000, and with up to 342 miles of driving range (EPA-est), the IONIQ 6 arrived as one of the most efficient EV options. A Boston Consulting Group report last year even found it to be the only EV that met buyers’ price, range, and charging expectations.

Despite the impressive specs and unique new design, Hyundai’s electric car has failed to live up to expectations. Will a redesign spark some life into the EV?

Hyundai unveiled the new IONIQ 6 at the Seoul Mobility Show last week, with a few noticeable design changes. With a new ducktail spoiler, the profile is smoother and more natural-looking, which was one of the biggest complaints.

The front and rear are redesigned with slim LED DRLs and main headlamps. Hyundai claims it “enhanced every line and detail to make the IONIQ 6 simpler and more progressive.”

After the new model was spotted driving for the first time in Korea, we are already getting a sneak peek at Hyundai’s refreshed IONIQ 6 on the road.

The new video from HealerTV gives us a good look at the changes from all angles. The rear spoiler has been upgraded to have a sportier overall look. The new, slim DRLs are a good touch, adding to its aggressive face.

Hyundai also updated the interior with a redesigned steering wheel and better materials on the door trim for “a more premium feel.” Other improvements include a more functional center console and a larger climate control display.

A new IONIQ 6 N will finally join the lineup. Hyundai teased the sporty new N model with an even more aggressive design based on the RN22e Rolling Lab concept.

Although more details will be revealed closer to its launch, we expect other improvements pulled from the 2025 IONIQ 5, like an added NACS port and potentially even more driving range.

What do you think of the new IONIQ 6? Do you like the redesign, or is it still not enough? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

The 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona EV now has a ,500 rebate

The 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona EV came in hot – and expensive – when it launched at the end of 2024 with no official rebate. But that’s just changed.

The 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona EV starts at $66,990 including the destination fee. But the actual cost of this luxury muscle car is $78,680 including all the required packages.

And as of April 1, it now comes with a $6,500 National Retail Consumer Cash rebate.

Stellantis Financing continues to offer a special financing rate of 1.9% APR for 72 months, but unfortunately, that can’t be combined with the $6,500 rebate, so you have to choose one or the other.

If you’re interested in leasing a Charger Daytona EV, then you can get $7,500 in lease cash from Stellantis Financial. Stellantis also offers Chrysler employee pricing to the public, but it can’t be stacked with rebates. How employee pricing works is, dealer pricing is 5% below the dealer invoice and a $200 program fee, plus you can’t haggle over pricing.

CarsDirect notes that the 2024 model still has the best deals on a Dodge Charger Daytona EV, with four options on the table:

  • 0% APR financing for 72 months plus $3,000 in bonus cash
  • $7,500 National Retail Consumer Cash in addition to $3,000 in bonus cash
  • $2,000 Conquest Bonus Cash deal in select regions like the West Coast
  • $7,500 in lease cash plus $6,000 in bonus cash for those who want to lease

Check out the Kia EV2: This small electric SUV has a big personality

Kia-EV2-interior

Although the EV2 is Kia’s smallest EV, it won’t feel so small when sitting in it. Kia designed the open interior to give you an escape from the city. After sharing new details at Milan Design Week on Thursday, Kia gave us a closer look at the EV2 inside and out. The new interior design could see its way into future Kia EV models.

Kia EV2 interior is small but flexible

At Milan Design Week 2025, Kia held an exclusive exhibition for its upcoming EV models. The Concept EV2 was showcased alongside Kia’s first electric van, the PV5, and a rugged PV5 WKNDR concept.

Kia revealed new details about the EV2’s interior and what we can expect to see when it arrives. Inspired by a “picnic in the city,” the cabin is designed to feel as open and flexible as possible.

Like a balcony or porch, which offers a relaxing retreat from busy city life, Kia wants the EV2 to have a similar feel. Thanks to its flat-floor layout, the interior can open up with flexible seating. The second-row seats can fold up while the front seats slide up to provide an open space—you know, where you might want to have a picnic.

Kia added a few extras like integrated speakers in the headrest, portable door speakers, detachable seat cushions, extendable seats, and pop-up luggage dividers for your next adventure.

Even with the fun features, Kia focused on sustainability. The interior introduces environmentally conscious materials like Simplifyber Fybron™, AmpliTex, and biodegradable mycelium components.

Kia said the new design elements showcase its vision for future EV interiors. More details will be shared closer to the launch, but the EV2 is expected to include Kia’s new ccNC infotainment system.

As shown in the concept, the system features a curved display with dual 12.3″ driver and infotainment screens. Despite being an entry-level model, the EV2 will have advanced features like vehicle-to-load (VTL) to power up electronics or home appliances. It will also get smarter and more advanced over time with OTA updates.

Last month, we got our first look at Kia’s entry-level electric SUV on the road in Korea with a Soul-like design. Kia will launch the EV2 in Europe and other global markets next year.

Like other Kia electric models based on Hyundai’s E-GMP platform, the EV2 is expected to arrive with a WLTP range of at least 300 miles (605 km). Although prices will be revealed closer to launch, the EV2 is expected to start at around 30,000 euros ($33,000), but that could change in another year or so.

How do you feel about the Kia EV2? Would you buy one for around 30,000 euros ($33,000)? Let us know in the comments. We should learn more soon. We’ll keep you updated with the latest.
