Tenways’ new 8-speed chain-drive CGO600 Pro e-bike launches at $1,399 low with bonus savings

Today, Tenways is launching its new chain version of the popular CGO600 Pro e-bike that is getting a $500 launch discount to $1,399 shipped, while its belt-drive model has risen to $1,699 shipped. It will hold the same $1,899 regular price tag as the belt-drive model, which often falls to $1,499 during sales, though we regularly see it down at $1,399 on occasion too. This makes this launch a great opportunity to grab a lightweight commuter at the best price that we can find since the brand hit our radar. You can learn about the changes this new model brings below, or you can learn more through our launch coverage.

The biggest update to Tenways’ new CGO600 Pro e-bike is the switch from the previous Gates carbon belt drive system to an 8-speed Shimano drivetrain, which offers the same rated performance specs as its counterpart. The other big switch up here is the addition of a new Tenways C9 350W rear hub motor over the belt-drive’s Mivice M080 350W motor, which again, claims the same general performance as before. All-in-all you’re still getting an extremely lightweight e-bike weighing between 37 to 41 pounds (depending on your accessory additions), with a 20 MPH top speed, four levels of pedal assistance supported by a torque sensor, and up to 53 miles of travel range on a single charge.

Aside from those big changes, Tenways’ new CGO600 Pro e-bike comes with the same Tektro dual-piston hydraulic disc brakes, puncture-proof tires, LED lighting, internally-routed cables, a compact OLED display, companion app integration – as well as four solid colorways on top of three different size options.

There’s also the added bonus deal that gets you a free mudguard set for the wheels alongside a kickstand (valued at $118) by simply subscribing to Tenways’ newsletter. If you happen to be a medical provider, military member, first responder, or teacher, you can follow the link on the page to get verified and receive an additional $150 off your purchase.

ecoflow Halloween flash sale

Alongside EcoFlow’s ongoing Halloween sale, the brand has launched the first of its scheduled 24-hour flash sales, with today’s offering the DELTA Pro Smart Extra Battery for $1,399 shipped. Normally priced at $2,799, it spent the first half of 2024 repeatedly falling to $1,599 with each discount, until July saw things fall a little lower to $1,499, followed the next month by a drop to $1,399. Since August we’ve seen it keep above $1,469, with today’s flash sale giving you another shot at the 50% markdown that not only returns costs to the all-time lowest price we have tracked but also lets you double up your existing DELTA Pro’s battery capacity for even longer-lasting backup power.

With EcoFlow’s DELTA Pro smart extra battery back at its lowest price, you’ll be getting the best deal to double your power station’s 3,600Wh LiFePO4 capacity to 7,200Wh, giving you longer-lasting backup power to cover off-grid camping needs, small business support (such as food truck appliances), and even powering your home necessities during sudden power outages. There’s a bright LCD screen for quick performance readouts at a glance or you can monitor and control everything from your personal devices through the EcoFlow app.

One thing to keep in mind here in terms of total home backup support – you’ll need to already have a few more DELTA Pro stations with their smart extra battery setups (up to the 25kWh maximum) alongside the transfer switch and power cord to carry your home’s entire breaker, or invest in a larger backup unit.

You’ll get the same recharging rates through this unit that you get with its power station counterpart, with the two sharing a 6,500W MultiCharge, letting them charge/discharge in unison once they’ve been connected together.

Be sure to check out the entire lineup of power stations, bundles, smart devices, and accessories that are benefitting from up to 51% off discounts through the rest of the month, with two more planned 24-hour flash sales on 26, and 29.

Tenways CGO600 Pro e-bike

Hiboy’s 68-mile trekking 2024 P7 Commuter e-bike hits new $850 low in Halloween sale

Hiboy has launched a Halloween sale that is taking up to $850 off a lineup of e-bikes and e-scooters through the rest of the month. A standout this time around is the brand’s new 2024 P7 Commuter Electric Bike which is down at $849.99 shipped. Normally carrying a $1,700 price tag, we saw the very first discount on this new model drop costs back at the end of August, with the brand’s Labor Day sales skipping over it entirely and other minor sales only returning it to $900. Today, prices have finally shifted lower as it receives a 50% markdown that saves you $850, beating out its previous low rate by $50 and landing it at a new all-time low price.

It’s nice to see this entry-level e-bike finally gaining some attention, as it offers an affordable rate alongside a more simplified riding experience that doesn’t take any specialized insights to judge. It delivers a 28 MPH top speed (beating out many higher-end models that cut out at 20/25MPH) with three riding modes that produce some solid commuting power. There’s the standard bike mode letting you pedal yourself, a power-assist mode that supports you to its top speed for up to 68 miles, or you can use the throttle by itself for up to 37 miles of cruising.

The streamlined frame houses the 500W brushless motor and the removable IPX5-rated waterproof 14.5Ah battery and weighs in at 56 pounds, making it a much more manageable model for smaller and less physically-endowed riders (plus it can handle riders up to 265 pounds). There’s a Multifunction LCD Display that gives you the usual at-a-glance data you expect on top of acting as a personal coach for those of you interested in getting back in shape, pushing you to outdo your previous days’ best. Other features include front shocks, 2.2-inch mountain tires, power-off front/rear disc brakes, and an IPX4 water-resistant frame rating.

Tenways CGO600 Pro e-bike

Coming to us through its official Amazon storefront, Goal Zero is giving us another shot at the best rate on its Yeti 1500X Portable Power Station at $779.89 shipped. While usually wearing a $1,300 price tag after falling from its original $1,800 MSRP over the summer, it has more recently kept between $1,100 to $1,234 on Amazon, with its bundle options seeing more frequent discounts than the standalone unit that usually sits for long periods at continuous rates. Today, you can take advantage of this unexpected return of the new low price we first saw a few weeks ago during Prime Day that saves you $520 off its going rate, beating out both Goal Zero’s direct site where it’s sitting at full price, and its previous low price by almost $200. The power station can be bundled with a 100W solar panel for $867 at the moment, or there’s a 200W solar panel bundle option down at $1,290.

Goal Zero’s Yeti 1500X power station delivers a reliable 1,516Wh capacity and an impressive 2,000W of power output (surging up to 3,500W) that can handle devices, appliances, and job site tool needs. For output ports, you’re looking at a nice spread of connection options with two AC ports, two USB-A ports, two USB-C ports, two 6mm ports, a regulated 12V port, and one car port. Recharging the battery back to full takes about 14 hours when plugged into a wall outlet, which can be dropped down to three hours when pairing alongside a Goal Zero Yeti X 600W Power Supply. You can also get the battery refueled by connecting the station to your car, as well as utilizing solar charging with up to 600W max input.

EGO Power+ snow blower

Prep for winter with $100 off an EGO Power+ 56V 21-inch cordless electric snow blower at $549

Amazon is offering more savings towards your winter prep with the EGO Power+ 56V 21-Inch Cordless Electric Snow Blower at $549 shipped. Usually priced at $649 most days, this model has only seen a handful of discounts this year, mostly keeping costs above $551, though we did spot a fall to the $519 low back in May. Today’s deal gives you a solid $100 slashed off the tag and the third-lowest price we have tracked – just $30 above the all-time low.

Winter prep has begun and with the solid savings on this EGO Power+ 56V cordless electric snow blower, it’s a good time to expand your arsenal with quality support. The model’s brushless motor comes powered by two 4.0Ah batteries, giving you the power to clear a 21-inch wide path while chucking the unwanted snow up to 35 feet away. The batteries are rated to give you enough charge to clear out an 8-car driveway that is coated with up to 8 inches of snow on a single charge. It features a steel auger that breaks through thicker ice, with a variable speed control for comfortable handling – plus, there are two bright LED headlights for visibility during jobs in low-lighting hours.

If you want some solid snow-clearing equipment that is on the smaller (and cheaper) side, Amazon is also offering the EGO Power+ Multi-Head Shovel Snow Blower Kit for $349, down from $399. This tool provides a 12-inch wide clearing with the battery giving you enough life to clear out a 4-car driveway that is covered in up to 6 inches of snow – tossing it up to 25 feet out of the way. What’s best is that this package is an exclusive part of the Multi-Head system that allows for interchangeable attachments for various jobs, saving you time and space over having individual tools. If you already have the Power Head, you can find just the snow blower attachment discounted at $159. And for all the snow-clearing options that EGO Power+ provides, head to the landing page here to browse it all in full.

Greenworks 3000 PSI electric pressure washer combo kit

Save $280 on Greenworks’ Pro-tier 3,000 PSI electric pressure washer combo kit at $399 for today only

Through its Deals of the Day, Best Buy is offering the Greenworks 3,000 PSI Electric Pressure Washer Combo Kit for $399 shipped. Normally going for $679 at full price, it’s mostly kept to its MSRP throughout 2024, with savings occasionally coming in the form of longer-term discounts while mostly appearing as part of these one-day sales. It did drop to the $310 low back at the start of the year, but that discount hasn’t reappeared, with the months since seeing drops between $349 and $449. Today, you can score it for your arsenal at a solid 41% discount that saves you $280 off its going rate – $89 above the elusive all-time low. You won’t currently find this combo kit at Amazon either.

This pro-tier Greenworks electric pressure washer arrives with a 14A Trubrushless motor housed within a heavy-duty mobile frame and delivers up to 3,000 PSI of grime-clearing power at up to a 2.0 GPM flow rate. Alongside the onboard storage for the 25 feet of non-marring hose and five nozzle attachments, there’s also a one-gallon detergent tank for extra cleaning support too. As this is a combo kit, you’ll also be receiving an additional short gun kit, microfiber mitts, and a 15-inch surface cleaner to really maximize its potential. If you aren’t concerned with getting the additional gear, Best Buy also has the standard pressure washer package down from $450 to $300.

Porsche shows off Cayenne EV 11kW induction charging at IAA

Porsche shows off Cayenne EV 11kW induction charging at IAA

Porsche today showed off two of its new products at IAA in Munich. The long-awaited Cayenne EV showed up with a new trick: an 11kW induction charger.

Details are still a little sparse at the moment, but it looks like a forthcoming Cayenne, which we hope to get a better look at later this month, will have 11kW wireless charging capability. Also new: the Cayenne will DC charge at up to 400kW, one of the fastest charging cars we’ve seen outside of China. But back to induction charging…

Porsche’s press release didn’t mention the type of induction charging, whether it would be compatible with other types of inductive chargers, or whether this was something that would come on other Porsches, wider VW vehicles, or even across the industry. The price is listed at €2000 for the option on the car and €5000 for the charging pad.

How inductive charging works in detail

Inductive charging is known from smartphones, but also from electric toothbrushes. The energy is transferred through the air via a magnetic field. For this purpose, a transmitter coil made of copper and ferrites is located in the base plate. Alternating current flows through this coil, which generates a magnetic field.

Porsche’s innovative concept uses ultra-wideband technology to determine the vehicle’s relative position above the floor plate. When the optimal parking position is reached, the driver is informed. In the vehicle’s secondary coil, which acts as a receiver unit, the magnetic field then generates alternating current. A rectifier then converts this into direct current so that the Cayenne’s high-voltage battery can store it.

The mechanism works by showing the charger on the front-view display. The driver must align the car to a certain place on the front of the car. Once over the spot, the car will lower itself to within 4-6 inches of the charging pad.

  • Porsche wireless charging
  • Up to 11 kW
  • Efficiency up to 90 %
  • Active cooling
  • Charging pad 50 kg and 1,17 m 46“ long
  • Car lowers automatically when it parks over the pad
  • Motion sensor shuts down the plate when living beings or metal is being detected
  • Price 2.000 Euro vehicle, 5.000 Euro for the inductive plate, plus an electrician

At 240V, the 11kW Inductive charger would have a ~46A load. Porsche says the unit is up to 90% efficient, which means that the draw would be at least 12.2kW, which is about a 48A load at 240V.

Honda to unveil full-size electric motorcycle with fast charging this month

Honda to unveil full-size electric motorcycle with fast charging this month

Honda is finally getting ready to show off a full-size electric motorcycle, and it’s coming with something we rarely see on two wheels: fast charging. The company confirmed it will reveal more details about the bike on September 16, and all signs point to it being the long-awaited production version of the EV Fun concept first teased last year.

That’s a big deal. While we’ve seen plenty of electric scooters and small commuter bikes from Honda and other legacy manufacturers, a full-size electric motorcycle with legitimate highway performance – and fast charging – would put Honda into much more serious territory.

Most current e-motos in this category either rely on slower Level 2 charging or have limited battery capacity (with a few notable exceptions like the LiveWire One). A lack of DC fast charging can make long-distance travel impractical on an electric motorcycle, or at least time-consuming with longer coffee breaks while Level 2 charging. Honda’s decision to integrate fast charging could be the differentiator that makes their bike a real contender for riders who don’t want to be tied down by long charge times.

While we don’t have full specs yet, teaser images of the bike clearly showcase a CCS Combo 2 charge port, which is used in Europe for fast charging.

It’s an interesting move, especially since the company previously described the range of the upcoming model as being sufficient for urban use, without providing solid battery capacity information.

The bike looks nearly identical to the EV Fun concept, with a modern naked sport-bike style and Honda’s classic design language.

From the renders and spy shots floating around, it’s clearly meant to compete in the same class as mid-size combustion motorcycles like Honda’s CB series. That means it won’t be a tiny urban commuter; we’re talking about something built for the highway.

In addition to a dearth of info regarding the battery size, Honda hasn’t shared exact range or pricing yet, but those three specs will make or break this launch. Range has been the Achilles’ heel of many electric motorcycles, with real-world numbers often falling short of what riders expect from a gas bike, making faster highway-speed trips trickier without fast charging stops.

Price is another key factor. If Honda tries to compete head-to-head with Harley’s LiveWire or the high-dollar Zero models, it could find itself in a three-way battle to attract new riders. But if it manages to slot into a more accessible price bracket, we could see Honda move a lot of units.

While Honda says we’ll get the official details on September 16, the end-of-year timing also lines up well with the EICMA show in Milan this November. Don’t be surprised if Honda makes a bigger splash there, giving the bike its proper global debut in front of the industry.

The Kia EV5 is the affordable electric SUV we want, but can’t have

The Kia EV5 is the affordable electric SUV we want, but can't have

Kia-EV5-affordable-SUV

Kia launched the EV5 in South Korea, its stylish new Sportage-sized electric SUV. With prices starting at just $35,000, the Kia EV5 arrives as an affordable SUV that’s built for the masses. But those in the US may never get to see it.

Kia launches the EV5 in Korea at an affordable price

After opening orders in the UK earlier this week, Kia launched the EV5 in its home market of South Korea on Wednesday.

Like overseas, the electric SUV is available in three variants: Air, Earth, and GT-Line. Powered by an 81.4 kWh battery, the EV5 offers a range of up to 460 km (285 miles).

A single front-mounted electric motor provides up to 215 hp (160 kW) and 295 Nm max torque. It can also recharge from 10% to 80% in about 30 minutes using a 350 kW charger.

The EV5 is 1,875 mm wide, 4,610 mm long, and 1,675 mm tall, with a wheelbase of 2,750 mm, which is slightly smaller than that of the Tesla Model Y. To give you a better idea, that’s 10 mm wider, 70 mm longer, and 30 mm taller than the Kia Sportage.

The extended wheelbase provides “best-in-class” rear passenger space, according to Kia, with 1,041 mm second-row legroom.

Despite an upright stance like the larger EV9, the EV5 still has a sporty look with Kia’s latest design elements. The vertically stacked LED headlights and slim DRLs with Star Map lighting add to the bold styling.

The interior features Kia’s latest ccNC infotainment system, featuring dual 12.3″ driver cluster and infotainment screens in a panoramic display. Plus, there’s an added 5″ AC display.

Kia introduced several new features, including a new sound bar and display theme. Through a partnership with Disney, the EV5 will play welcome and goodbye tunes, EV-specific sounds, and more.

The base EV5 Air starts at 48.55 million won ($35,000) in Korea, while the Earth trim is priced from 52.3 million won ($37,600). Upgrading to the sporty GT-Line costs 53.4 million won ($38,400).

With government and local subsidies, Kia expects the EV5 to be available for purchase at around 40 million won ($28,800).

Starting Price Driving Range
Kia EV5 Air 48.55 million won ($35,000) 460 km (285 miles)
Kia EV5 Earth 52.3 million won ($37,600) 460 km (285 miles)
Kia EV5 GT-Line 53.4 million won ($38,400) 460 km (285 miles)
Kia EV5 prices and driving range by trim in South Korea

In comparison, the base Tesla Model Y RWD starts at 52.99 million won ($38,000) and has a driving range of up to 400 km (248 miles).

Although Kia plans to launch the EV5 in North America, it will be exclusively sold in Canada. We’ve seen a few EV5 models testing in the US, sparking speculation (or hope) that it could arrive, but don’t get your hopes up too soon. The last official statement from Kia still says the EV5 will be exclusive to Canada in the North American market.

What do you think of Kia’s new electric SUV? Would you buy one in the US? With Trump’s tariff war, don’t get your hopes up.
