Segway is launching preorders on its newest commuting option, the Ninebot F3 eKickScooter that will be down at $599.99 shipped through April 14 before opening for general purchases on April 15. This all new model will carry an $850 price tag once these pre-sale discounts are over, with this being the very first chance at cash savings. Taking advantage of this deal saves you 29% off its MSRP, putting $250 back in your pocket and giving us an idea of what future discounts may bring us. Head below to learn more about this new e-scooter and its features.
The designers of Segway’s Ninebot F3 eKickScooter have kept daily commutes in mind, giving it a brushless motor that can max out at 1,000W of power to tackle up to 20% inclines, while it pairs with the 477Wh battery to provide up to 44 miles of travel on a single charge at top speeds of 20 MPH. Aside from its smart innovations, you’re commute will be further enhanced by the 10-inch self-sealing jelly tires, a larger footboard, front hydraulic and rear elastomer suspension, a 6W auto-on headlight, brake lighting, turn signals, a front mechanical disc brake, as well as a rear electronic brake, and a 2.4-inch TFT smart display with navigation and caller ID – plus, the whole thing sports an IPX6 water-resistance rating.
Of course, the biggest of these new features has to be the Apple Find My capabilities and Airlock proximity locking/unlocking which can both be accessed via its companion app, with the distance for the latter feature being adjustable through the smart controls. It’s also been given the brand’s SegRange optimization that improves travel range by 20%, as well as the SegRide Stability Enhancement System that improves handling by making it far more resistant to disturbances you ride over and slipping on wet roads, even at its top speeds.
“As leaders in the personal transportation space, we’re not only innovating for the future, but innovating for every day. The F3 is the latest in our popular commuter scooter series. With each iteration of our scooters, we hope to make every ride a little bit better. Whether commuters riding to work, college students riding to class, or anyone just looking for some fun, our new F3 will deliver greater comfort, convenience and efficiency.”Tom Hebert, VP of Sales at Segway

Anker SOLIX weekend flash sale drops F2000 solar generator with 400W panel to $1,599
Anker is having a SOLIX weekend flash sale that is continuing some of the flash deals we saw last weekend along with some additional savings. Aside from the F3800 bundle discounts, a notable bundle is the F2000 Portable Power Station which comes along with a 400W solar panel for $1,599 shipped. These flash savings are bringing costs down from its usual $2,898 rate, with things only beaten out by the discount from Christmas sales that dropped things $100 lower. You’re looking at the second-lowest price here, which saves you $1,299 while also equipping you with a reliable means of backup power for trips and emergencies. It’s also beating out Amazon where it sits $24 higher in price.
A solid mid-tier option for keeping devices and appliances running, Anker’s SOLIX F2000 power station provides a 2,048Wh LiFePO4 capacity that can deliver up to 2,400W of output on average with the ability to surge to 3,600W for larger appliance needs. Its 12 output ports give you a versatile range of coverage, including a TT-30 port to connect to your RV while out on the road and beyond. You can regain 80% of its battery in 1.4 hours by plugging it into a standard wall outlet, with it also boasting a 1,000W max solar input that would yield the same amount in 2.5 hours (and a little over 5 hours for the included 400W panel). There’s also the option to connect it to your car’s auxiliary port, as well as the usual array of smart controls available through its companion app.

Clean off winter grime with Greenworks’ 2,000 PSI electric pressure washer at a new $135 low
Amazon is now offering up to 33% discounts on a selection of Greenworks electric pressure washers, just in time to jump into your outdoor spring cleaning. Among the featured models, you’ll find the largest of these markdowns being on the GPW2003 2,000 PSI Electric Pressure Washer for $134.99 shipped. The 33% markdown here is taking a significant chunk off its usual $200 price tag, with all the past discounts we’ve seen only going as low as $140. You’ll be saving $65 while the savings last here, giving you a more eco-friendly means to get outdoor cleaning done at a new all-time low price.
Spring has sprung and now there is cleaning to be done – whether that entails cleaning the grime off your home, walkways, driveway, patio furniture, and more – and this 14A Greenworks pressure washer is ready to help. It provides you with up to 2,000 PSI alongside a 1.2 GPM flow rate to efficiently clean – plus, there’s no gas or oil required, meaning no emissions.

Score $1,050 in savings on LG’s all-in-one electric washer/dryer combo with a ventless heat pump design at $1,999
Right now you can find LG offering its WashCombo All-in-One Electric Washer/Dryer with Ventless Inverter Heat Pump for $1,999 shipped. You’d normally be shelling out $2,999 for this model, which would be bumped up to $3,049 would it not be for the free delivery, installation, and haul-away services. We’ve mostly seen it come down to $2,000 on average, with today’s rate only beaten out by the $1,500 low that dropped during the brand’s July 4th sale last year. You’ll be getting $1,050 in savings here at the second-lowest price we have tracked, complete with additional savings options in the form of possible trade-ins, as well as discounted premium care plans. You’ll find it sitting $1 higher at Best Buy right now, though there are more costs to be considered, as delivery and installation would cost you an extra $65.
The LG WashCombo arrives as an ENERGY STAR-certified all-in-one model that brings more intelligence to your laundry routine. It offers an array of smart controls through its companion app while also having been given a built-in smart system that not only recognizes the soil levels of any fabrics thrown inside but then adjusts its settings to provide optimal cleaning. You won’t have to stress over perfectly memorizing what cycles/settings work best for each. It’s also worth noting that due to its 2-in-1 design, you could double up to replace your separate washer and dryer units to do double the laundry loads at the same time – washed and dried simultaneously in each.
There are two standout features that take this model to more convenient heights, with the first of them being the ventless design, allowing you to install it anywhere with access to a standard 120V plug – plus, there’s the inverter heat pump that increases efficiency “using up to 60% less energy with every load” over other models. There’s also the ezDispense reservoir that holds up to 31 loads worth of detergent so you can just load and go, there’s even an option to split its capacity between detergent and fabric softener. You’ll also find available accessories that you can bundle to expand its functionality, all on the same landing page, including a pedestal washer or the storage drawer.

Robinhood stock hit an all-time high Friday as the financial services platform continued to rip higher this year, along with bitcoin and other crypto stocks.
Robinhood, up more than 160% in 2025, hit an intraday high above $101 before pulling back and closing slightly lower.
The reversal came after a Bloomberg report that JPMorgan plans to start charging fintechs for access to customer bank data, a move that could raise costs across the industry.
For fintech firms that rely on thin margins to offer free or low-cost services to customers, even slight disruptions to their cost structure can have major ripple effects. PayPal and Affirm both ended the day nearly 6% lower following the report.
Despite its stellar year, the online broker is facing several headwinds, with a regulatory probe in Florida, pushback over new staking fees and growing friction with one of the world’s most high-profile artificial intelligence companies.
Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier opened a formal investigation into Robinhood Crypto on Thursday, alleging the platform misled users by claiming to offer the lowest-cost crypto trading.
“Robinhood has long claimed to be the best bargain, but we believe those representations were deceptive,” Uthmeier said in a statement.
The probe centers on Robinhood’s use of payment for order flow — a common practice where market makers pay to execute trades — which the AG said can result in worse pricing for customers.
Robinhood Crypto General Counsel Lucas Moskowitz told CNBC its disclosures are “best-in-class” and that it delivers the lowest average cost.
“We disclose pricing information to customers during the lifecycle of a trade that clearly outlines the spread or the fees associated with the transaction, and the revenue Robinhood receives,” added Moskowitz.
Robinhood is also facing opposition to a new 25% cut of staking rewards for U.S. users, set to begin October 1. In Europe, the platform will take a smaller 15% cut.
Staking allows crypto holders to earn yield by locking up their tokens to help secure blockchain networks like ethereum, but platforms often take a percentage of those rewards as commission.
Robinhood’s 25% cut puts it in line with Coinbase, which charges between 25.25% and 35% depending on the token. The cut is notably higher than Gemini’s flat 15% fee.
It marks a shift for the company, which had previously steered clear of staking amid regulatory uncertainty.
Under President Joe Biden‘s administration, the Securities and Exchange Commission cracked down on U.S. platforms offering staking services, arguing they constituted unregistered securities.
With President Donald Trump in the White House, the agency has reversed course on several crypto enforcement actions, dropping cases against major players like Coinbase and Binance and signaling a more permissive stance.
Even as enforcement actions ease, Robinhood is under fresh scrutiny for its tokenized stock push, which is a growing part of its international strategy.
The company now offers blockchain-based assets in Europe that give users synthetic exposure to private firms like OpenAI and SpaceX through special purpose vehicles, or SPVs.
An SPV is a separate entity that acquires shares in a company. Users then buy tokens of the SPV and don’t have shareholder privileges or voting rights directly in the company.
OpenAI has publicly objected, warning the tokens do not represent real equity and were issued without its approval. In an interview with CNBC International, CEO Vlad Tenev acknowledged the tokens aren’t technically equity shares, but said that misses the broader point.
“What’s important is that retail customers have an opportunity to get exposure to this asset,” he said, pointing to the disruptive nature of AI and the historically limited access to pre-IPO companies.
“It is true that these are not technically equity,” Tenev added, noting that institutional investors often gain similar exposure through structured financial instruments.
The Bank of Lithuania — Robinhood’s lead regulator in the EU — told CNBC on Monday that it is “awaiting clarifications” following OpenAI’s statement.
“Only after receiving and evaluating this information will we be able to assess the legality and compliance of these specific instruments,” a spokesperson said, adding that information for investors must be “clear, fair, and non-misleading.”
Tenev responded that Robinhood is “happy to continue to answer questions from our regulators,” and said the company built its tokenized stock program to withstand scrutiny.
“Since this is a new thing, regulators are going to want to look at it,” he said. “And we expect to be scrutinized as a large, innovative player in this space.”
SEC Chair Paul Atkins recently called the model “an innovation” on CNBC’s Squawk Box, offering some validation as Robinhood leans further into its synthetic equity strategy — even as legal clarity remains in flux across jurisdictions.
Despite the regulatory noise, many investors remain focused on Robinhood’s upside, and particularly the political tailwinds.
The company is positioning itself as a key beneficiary of Trump’s newly signed megabill, which includes $1,000 government-seeded investment accounts for newborns. Robinhood said it’s already prototyping an app for the ‘Trump Accounts‘ initiative.
Korean auto giants Hyundai and Kia think lower-priced EVs will help minimize the blow from the new US auto tariffs. Hyundai is set to unveil a new entry-level electric car soon, which will be sold alongside the Kia EV2. Will it be the IONIQ 2?
Hyundai and Kia shift to lower-priced EVs
Hyundai and Kia already offer some of the most affordable and efficient electric vehicles on the market, with models like the IONIQ 5 and EV6.
In Europe, Korea, Japan, and other overseas markets, Hyundai sells the Inster EV (sold as the Casper Electric in Korea), an electric city car. The Inster EV starts at about $27,000 (€23,900), but Hyundai will soon offer another lower-priced EV, similar to the upcoming Kia EV2.
The Inster EV is seeing strong initial demand in Europe and Japan. According to a local report (via Newsis), demand for the Casper Electric is so high that buyers are waiting over a year for delivery.

Hyundai is doubling down with plans to introduce an even more affordable EV, rumored to be the IONIQ 2. Xavier Martinet, CEO of Hyundai Motor Europe, said during a recent interview that “The new electric vehicle will be unveiled in the next few months.”

The new EV is expected to be a compact SUV, which will likely resemble the upcoming Kia EV2. Kia will launch the EV2 in Europe and other global regions in 2026.
Hyundai is keeping most details under wraps, but the expected IONIQ 2 is likely to sit below the Kona Electric as a smaller city EV.

More affordable electric cars are on the way
Although nothing is confirmed, it’s expected to be priced at around €30,000 ($35,000), or slightly less than the Kia EV3.
The Kia EV3 starts at €35,990 in Europe and £33,005 in the UK, or about $42,000. Through the first half of the year, Kia’s compact electric SUV is the UK’s most popular EV.

Like the Hyundai IONIQ models and Kia’s other electric vehicles, the EV3 is based on the E-GMP platform. It’s available with two battery packs: 58.3 kWh or 81.48 kWh, providing a WLTP range of up to 430 km (270 miles) and 599 km (375 miles), respectively.
Hyundai is expected to reveal the new EV at the IAA Mobility show in Munich in September. Meanwhile, Kia is working on a smaller electric car to sit below the EV2 that could start at under €25,000 ($30,000).

According to the report, Hyundai and Kia are doubling down on lower-priced EVs to balance potential losses from the new US auto tariffs.
Despite opening its new EV manufacturing plant in Georgia to boost local production, Hyundai is still expected to expand sales in other regions. An industry insider explained, “Considering the risk of US tariffs, Hyundai’s move to target the European market with small electric vehicles is a natural strategy.”
2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 (Source: Hyundai)
Although Hyundai is expanding in other markets, it remains a leading EV brand in the US. The IONIQ 5 remains a top-selling EV with over 19,000 units sold through June.
After delivering the first IONIQ 9 models in May, Hyundai reported that over 1,000 models had been sold through the end of June, its three-row electric SUV.
While the $7,500 EV tax credit is still here, Hyundai is offering generous savings with leases for the 2025 IONIQ 5 starting as low as $179 per month. The three-row IONIQ 9 starts at just $419 per month. And Hyundai is even throwing in a free ChargePoint Home Flex Level 2 charger if you buy or lease either model.
Unfortunately, we likely won’t see the entry-level EV2 or IONIQ 2 in the US. However, Kia is set to launch its first electric sedan, the EV4, in early 2026.

As EVBox shuts down its Everon business across Europe and North America, EV charging provider Blink Charging is stepping up to offer support to customers caught in the transition.
EVBox’s software arm Everon recently announced it’s winding down operations alongside EVBox’s AC charger business. That’s left a lot of charging station hosts and drivers wondering what comes next. Now, EVBox Everon is pointing its customers toward Blink as a recommended alternative.
Blink says it’s ready to help, whether that means keeping existing chargers up and running or replacing aging gear with new Blink chargers.
“EVBox has played a significant role in the growth of EV charging infrastructure across the UK and Mainland Europe, and we recognize the trust hosts have placed in its solutions,” said Alex Calnan, Blink Charging’s managing director of Europe. “With the recent announcement of Everon’s withdrawal from the EV charging market, it’s natural to have questions about what this means for operations. At Blink, we want to assure Everon customers that we are here to help them navigate this transition.”

Blink says it’s able to offer advice, replacements, and ongoing network management to make the changeover as smooth as possible.
Everon users who switch to Blink will get access to the Blink Network portal via the Blink Charging app. That opens up real-time insight into charger usage and lets hosts set pricing, manage users, and download performance reports.
“At Blink, our charging technology is future-ready,” added Calnan. “With advancements like vehicle-to-grid technology on the horizon, our chargers are built to support the future of electric vehicles and charging habits.”
The company says its chargers are in stock and ready to ship now for any Everon customers looking to make the jump.
In October 2024, France’s Engie announced it would liquidate the entire EVBox group, which it said posted total losses of €800 million since Engie took over in 2017. EVBox is closing its operations in the Netherlands, Germany, and the US.
