Juiced’s 20% off sitewide sale drops JetCurrent Pro Foldable e-bike to new $1,759 low

Juiced has increased its sitewide savings to 20% off, which is giving folks an even better deal on its new JetCurrent Pro Foldable e-bike than we reported on a few days ago, now down at $1,759.20 shipped, after using the promo code SAVINGS at checkout. Priced at $2,799, and starting here today at $2,199, this combined 37% markdown not only beats the incredibly short-lived $1,889 former low that we saw the other day, but also gives you a total of $1,040 in savings – the largest amount taken off its usual rate that we have seen, marking a new all-time low price – but don’t wait to long to make a decision here, who knows how long Juiced will keep it going!

Juiced’s JetCurrent Pro Foldable e-bike boasts two new firsts for the popular brand – the folding frame that saves you far more storage/transport space and the ridiculous 34 MPH top speed. It achieves the latter thanks to the supercharged 1,200W NeoBlade motor (2,000W peak) that is powered by the 52V battery and comes supported by five levels of pedal assistance, which all together also provides a 70-mile travel range on a single charge. And the upgraded support doesn’t stop there, as it also sports joint torque and cadence sensors to reduce lag time between the system’s pick up too. Equipped with a throttle for pure electric action when you want it, there’s also an active cruise control feature that keeps speeds under 20 MPH to conserve the battery for longer travel times, or you can throw caution to the wind with its race track mode that cuts off any limits on the motor to reach its fastest settings.

The praises don’t stop there for Juiced’s JetCurrent Pro e-bike, as it comes stocked with a 1,050-lumen Shadowblaster headlight for increased visibility at night, as well as 4-inch fat tires with fenders over each, 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes, turn signal functionality on both the front and rear sections, and a separate brake light too. You’ll also get some gear which you can add onto the frame at your preference, with a rear cargo rack, a folding mirror, an “automotive grade horn,” a backlit LCD display with a USB port to charge your phone – plus, it even has a security alarm with a wireless remote.

You’ll find all the other e-bikes under the brand’s flag by following this link here to the landing page, with the 20% off discount not shown on models’ prices until you use the promo code SAVINGS at checkout.

Rad Power’s RadExpand 5 Folding e-bike drops to new $1,199 low

Rad Power has launched an Orange Friday sale through October 16 that is taking up to $400 off three of its utility and/or folding e-bike models alongside a 25% discount on its vehicle racks. Pulling out ahead of the pack as the biggest deal is the RadExpand 5 Folding e-bike for $1,199 shipped. This model is normally priced at $1,599 outside of sales, with 2024 largely dropping costs down to $1,299, with a few others seeing things taken lower to the former $1,249 low. Today though, you’re looking at the best deal we’ve seen on it yet as it gets a $400 markdown and lands at a new all-time low. You can check out our hands-on review over at Electrek or head below to learn more.

Solving the problem of storage space, the RadExpand 5 e-bike has been designed with a folding frame to condense its size when you’re not on the saddle to fit inside closets, car trunks, RVs, and more. It arrives stocked with a 750W brushless geared rear-hub motor that is powered by the 672Wh battery, with this combination providing a max speed of 20 MPH while carrying riders up to 45+ miles after a single charge. It has four low-profile cadence-sensing pedal assist levels to help extend the bike’s travel range, or if you’re unconcerned with mileage, there’s a half-twist throttle too (the sole use of which will decrease its range).

There’s a bunch more added features here to enhance your riding experience, with a standard LED headlight alongside an integrated taillight that offers brake light functionality, both of which automatically activate when daylight drops low enough. It also comes with an integrated cargo rack that has a 55-pound limit, fenders over both wheels, a water-resistant wiring harness, a 7-speed MicroShift derailleur, and a simple LED display.

Add Rachio’s smart hose timer and multi-zone sprinkler controllers to your setup at new low prices from $69

Amazon is offering a great new chance to optimize your sprinkler systems with the Rachio Smart Hose Timer with Wi-Fi Hub for $69 shipped. Normally fetching $100, we’ve mainly been seeing this package bobbing between $99 and $79 throughout 2024, with the former $75 low having only been seen once back in March. Today though, instead of returning to that rate, we’re getting an even better 31% markdown that drops costs to a new all-time low price.

This smart hose timer that comes along with the Wi-Fi hub will work in sync together in order to provide smart controls over your water supply as it flows from out of your spigot. Through the Rachio app on your smartphone, you can monitor flow rates, set schedules, and even have it send you alerts when things aren’t running properly. A neat bonus feature here is the timer using Wi-Fi to update itself on weather forecasts and skip scheduled watering times before or after expected rain, keeping your lawn from drowning while saving you some money too. You can also pair up to four of these timers to one Wi-Fi hub for maximum coverage.

That’s not the only new low price we’re seeing today for this system, as Amazon has also dropped the Rachio 3rd Gen Smart 4-Zone Sprinkler Controller to $85, down from $150. If you want to take your control over your water supply to its best levels, pairing this model with the above device is recommended. It also uses weather forecasts to skip scheduled watering periods, with functions like rain skip, wind skip, freeze skip, and more to save you money and save you from headaches of a dead lawn. It’s ready to be installed straight out of the box with no extra charges or subscription fees lurking around either.

If you have a much larger yard that the 4-zone can handle alone, there are other options, with the 8-zone sprinkler controller down from $230 to $177 right now, while its 16-zone counterpart is going for $217, down from $300. You can find a few bundle options on all these too, throwing in waterproof outdoor enclosures for added protection with the 8-zone controller for $209, while the 16-zone bundle here is down at $249. There’s also two more bundles worth considering of sprinkler controllers and the hose timer, with the 8-zone controller package for $246, or the 16-zone controller for $286.

nexus

Add the Nexus power station with two 7.5Ah batteries to your EGO Power+ setup for $899 low

Amazon is offering the EGO Power+ Nexus Portable Power Station with two 7.5Ah batteries for $899 shipped. You’d normally find this heavy-duty combo for $1,099 most days, with 2024 having seen very few discounts on it and its counterparts, most of which only took costs down to $999 while July’s Prime Day sales saw it first fall to $899. You can score it here today as it returns to its all-time summer Prime Day low, saving you $200 off its usual going rate. You can also find the power station alone at $599, or its larger counterpart with four 5.0Ah batteries for $1,481.

This power station from EGO Power+ was designed as an alternative to gas generators, with a diverse range of uses for camping, tailgating, running large holiday displays/decorations, job site support, and more. The brand’s own 7.5Ah ARC batteries power the device, pumping out a continuous stream of power up to 2,000W (peaking at 3,000W) with three AC outlets and four USB ports to connect your devices and appliances.

For example, with just this combination, you can run a standard refrigerator for around three hours when the power goes out, with smaller models that you might use for tailgating lasting even longer. What’s nice about this for those who already own EGO Power+ tools and their respective batteries, is that you can keep switching them out with the included two for sustained power output or plug the station into a wall outlet to act as a multi-port battery charger too, making it a nice addition to homes/setups already investing in the brand.

greenworks

Greenworks’ 1,900 PSI electric pressure washer combo kit brings you more utility at $100 for today only

Offered through its Deals of the Day, Best Buy has dropped the price on the Greenworks 1,900 PSI Electric Pressure Washer Combo Kit to $99.99 shipped for today only. Normally going for $220 most of the time, the best opportunities that we’ve seen for this particular package are during these one-day sales, which we last saw appear a few times in August. You’re looking at another chance to score it at one of its best discounted rates, giving you $120 in savings and giving you the third-lowest price we have tracked – only $10 above the all-time low from last year’s Christmas sales.

You won’t find this model directly from Greenworks anymore, with the company focusing on its counterpart with a wheeled frame over the utility that this model provides. You’ll get a far more portable device here while it delivers up to a 1,900 PSI that runs at a 1.2 GPM flow rate. Unlike some of its successors, this combo comes with a wider variety of attachment heads for the wand, giving you more versatility in the ways you can tackle and wash away the grime that’s been building up around the outside of your home (with onboard storage to keep them together and easy to find). The 20 feet of non-marring, high-pressure hose gives you more leeway when it comes to maneuverability, with a surface cleaner attachment for boosted power, and features the brand’s Total Stop System to have the pump automatically shut off when the trigger is not being engaged.

Fall e-bike deals!

Best new Green Deals landing this week

The savings this week are also continuing to a collection of other markdowns. To the same tune as the offers above, these all help you take a more energy-conscious approach to your routine. Winter means you can lock in even better off-season price cuts on electric tools for the lawn while saving on EVs and tons of other gear.

Mitsubishi debuts EV battery swap network for cars AND trucks in Tokyo

Mitsubishi debuts EV battery swap network for cars AND trucks in Tokyo

Mitsubishi Fuso and Ample to partner on battery-swapping technology for electric trucks

Mitsubishi is partnering with Ample and Yamoto Transports to deploy an innovative new battery swap network for electric cars in its Japanese home market — but it’s not just for electric cars. Mitsubishi Fuso commercial trucks are getting in on the action, too!

Despite a number of early EV adopters with an overdeveloped concept of ownership, battery swap technology has proven to be both extremely effective and extremely positive to the overall EV ownership experience. And when you see how simple it is to add hundreds of miles of driving in just 100 seconds — quicker, in many cases, than pumping a tank of liquid fuel into an ICE-powered car — you might come around, yourself.

That seems to be what Mitsubishi thinks, anyway, and they’re hoping they’ll be your go-to choice when it’s time to electrify your regional and last-mile commercial delivery fleet(s) by launching a multi-year pilot program to deploy more than 150 battery-swappable commercial electric vehicles and 14 modular battery swapping stations across Tokyo, where the company plans to showcase its “five minute charging” tech in full view of hundreds of commercial fleets and, crucially, the executives of the companies that own and manage them.

How battery swap works for electric trucks

A truck like the Mitsubishi eCanter typically requires a full night of AC charging to top off its batteries, and at least an hour or two on DC charging in Japan, according to Fuso. This joint pilot by Mitsubishi, Mitsubishi Fuso Trucks, and Ample aims to circumvent this issue of forced downtime with its swappable batteries, supporting vehicle uptime by delivering a full charge within minutes. The move is meant to encourage the transport industry’s EV shift while creating a depository of stored energy that can be deployed to the grid in the event of a natural disaster — something Mitsubishi in Japan has been working on for years.

Trucks like the eCanter already serve a number of roles throughout the global truck market, including municipal waste collection, regional delivery support, and more.

The pilot is backed by Tokyo Metropolitan Government’s “Technology Development Support Project for Promoting New Energy,” with local delivery operator Yamato Transport testing swappable EVs for delivery operations on both its eCanter light-duty trucks and Mitsubishi Minicab kei-class electric vans.

Electrek’s Take

Electrifying the commercial truck fleet is a key part of decarbonizing city truck fleets – not just here in the US, but around the world. I called the eCanter, “a great product for moving stuff around densely packed city streets,” and eliminating the corporate fear of EV charging in the wild just makes it an even better product for that purpose.

Here’s hoping we see more “right size” electric solutions like this one (and more battery swapping tech) in small towns and tight urban environments stateside somewhat sooner than later.

Opel Grandland Blitz AWD electric SUV should give US Jeep fans hope

Opel Grandland Blitz AWD electric SUV should give US Jeep fans hope

Conquering New Terrain: The Opel Grandland Electric AWD

After becoming the first European brand to offer fully electric versions of every model it sells — and at the same price as the ICE models — Opel is going even further, with a new, AWD electric SUV that should give American Jeep fans hope for a new electric Cherokee!

Now part of the Stellantis, rather than GM portfolio of brands, Rüsselsheim-based Opel showed off the first official pictures of its new Opel Grandland Electric AWD — the company’s first all-electric SUV to feature the “Blitz” performance emblem and all-wheel drive.

“Our top-of-the-range Grandland SUV is a milestone for Opel,” says Opel CEO Florian Huettl. “Customers already have a choice of battery-electric drive, plug-in hybrid and hybrid with 48-volt technology. We are now offering even more choice with the Grandland Electric AWD and thus ensuring that our customers can enjoy maximum efficiency and safety in diverse weather and road conditions, combined with plenty of driving fun.”

Stellantis gets it right in Europe

Opel says its new, AWD Grandland is its most aerodynamically efficient model yet, with a drag coefficient (Cd) of just 0.278. That efficiency, paired with similarly efficient electric motors and a 73 kWh li-ion NMC battery give the electric crossover a 501 km (311 mile) WLTP range, while a combined 325 hp and 375 lb-ft of torque should make for suitably spirited acceleration to go along with all that green cred.

Suspension and handling, too, are promised to deliver on what Opel claims is a “typical” Teutonic driving experience in the Grandland AWD:

Both driving pleasure and comfort are further emphasized by dampers with frequency selective damping technology. This unique technology comes as standard on the Grandland Electric AWD and incorporates a second hydraulic circuit in the damper chamber to mechanically adapt the damping force in relation to the frequency. Depending on the situation, road surface conditions and driving style, it enables different damping characteristics for comfortable gliding at high frequencies – i.e. with short impacts such as on cobblestones or a manhole cover – as well as for a sporty, ambitious driving style with more direct contact with the road at low frequencies. The Grandland reacts even more immediately and directly to any command from the driver and, as is typical for Opel, remains stable when braking, cornering and at high speeds on the Autobahn.

OPEL PRESS RELEASE

The Opel Grandland Electric AWD ships with four standard drive modes that include “normal,” eco, sport, and 4WD mode, which simulates locking axles and true 4×4 off-road performance. The ESP and traction control systems adopt specific settings to enhance grip in 4WD mode as well, and maximum power and torque are instantly available.

Electrek’s Take

As you maybe could tell by now, feeding European Stellantis EVs into an AI image generator and asking it to “make them into Jeeps” is one of my new favorite things to do. This new Opel is no different, and the resulting image (above) paired with the models’ stated specs give me hope that the next wave of Jeep EVs will do better than the Wagoneer S at attracting buyers. All they really need, I think, is the right name — and the right price, to be winners.

With $25,000 off, is the Jeep Wagoneer S the best EV deal going?

With ,000 off, is the Jeep Wagoneer S the best EV deal going?

Deep discounts hit Jeep’s flagship EV as Stellantis struggles with demand

Like a 90s “gifted” kid that was supposed to be a lot of things, the electric Jeep Wagoneer S never really found its place — but with dealers discounting the Jeep brands forward-looking flagship by nearly $25,000, it might be time to give the go-fast Wagoneer S a second look.

SKIP THE STORY: get straight to the deals.

Whether we’re talking about Mercedes-Benz, Cerberus, Fiat, or even Enzo Ferrari, outsiders have labeled Jeep as a potentially premium brand that could, “if managed properly,” command luxury-level prices all over the globe. That hasn’t happened, and Stellantis is just the latest in a long line of companies to sink massive capital into the brand only to realize that people will not, in fact, spend Mercedes money on a Jeep.

That said, the Jeep Wagoneer S is not a bad car (and neither is its totally different, hideously massive, ICE-powered Wagoneer sibling, frankly). Built on the same Stellantis STLA Large vehicle platform that underpins the sporty Charger Daytona EVs, the confusingly-named Wagoneer S packs dual electric motors putting out almost 600 hp. That’s good enough to scoot the ‘ute 0 to 60 mph in a stomach-turning 3.5 seconds and enough, on paper, to convince Stellantis executives that they had developed a real, market-ready alternative to the Tesla Model Y.

With the wrong name and a sky-high starting price of $66,995 (not including the $1,795 destination fee), however, that demand didn’t materialize, leaving the Wagoneer S languishing on dealer lots across the country.

That could be about to change, however, thanks to big discounts on Wagoneer S being reported at CDJR dealers in several states, according to our friends at the Car Dealership Guy podcast.

  • Jimmy Britt Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Georgia, has a Wagoneer S with an MSRP of $67,590 listed at $43,104 ($24,486 off)
  • In Florida, Taverna Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Fiat has a $67,590 Wagoneer S slashed to $43,138 ($24,452 off)
  • Chris Nikel Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Fiat in Oklahoma has a Wagoneer S listed for $43,425 ($24,165 off)

“Stellantis bet big on electric versions of iconic American brands like Jeep and Dodge, but consumers aren’t buying the premise,” writes CDG’s Marcus Amick. “(Stellantis’ dealer body) is now stuck with expensive EVs that need huge discounts to move, eating into already thin margins while competitors focus on [more] profitable gas-powered vehicles.”

All of which is to say: if you’ve found yourself drawn to the Jeep Wagoneer S, but couldn’t quite stomach the $70,000+ window stickers, you might want to check in with your local Jeep dealer and see how you feel about it at a JCPenneys-like 30% off!
