Head below for other New Green Deals we’ve found today and, of course, Electrek’s best EV buying and leasing deals. Also, check out the new Electrek Tesla Shop for the best deals on Tesla accessories.

EcoFlow has switched up its ongoing Halloween Sale to include its Monthly Madness promotions for the last two days of October, complete with a bonus 5% sitewide savings code, a free gift promotion with orders over $1,000, member-only deals (sign-up is free), 3x EcoCredit rewards, and the chance to cash them in for additional savings. Among the expanded lineup, as well as the member-only deals, you can find the brand’s new DELTA 3 Max Portable Power Station with a FREE trolley at $721.05 shipped, after using the code 25EFHWAFF at checkout, which beats its Amazon pricing by $78. This is one of the brand’s latest releases that hit the market at the end of September carrying a $1,499 MSRP, which we saw taken down to $759 with the launch savings while spending most of the time at $799 over at Amazon. Now, for the next two days, you’re getting even more savings as a total $778 is cut from the tag, landing it $38 under our previous mention at a new all-time low price. Head below for more on this new backup power solution and the expanded lineup of deals.

Upgraded from the DELTA 3 Classic model, EcoFlow’s new DELTA 3 Max power station starts improvements with a doubled 2,048Wh LiFePO4 capacity over its predecessor, which you can expand up to 10,240Wh by using extra batteries for the DELTA 3, DELTA Pro 3, DELTA 2 Max, or DELTA 2, giving it a nice array of modular versatility. It produces up to 2,400W of power output (surging up to 3,400W) to devices connected to any of its nine port options, broken down into four ACs, three USB-Cs, one USB-A, and one car port. It brings four ways to recharge its own battery, with a standard AC outlet taking 68 minutes to reach 80%, which is how long a gas generator would also take, while utilizing its max 500W solar input can get you back to 80% in 3.43 hours of sunlight, and also benefits from the brand’s alternator charger.

Rad Power has both extended and condensed its Haul-o-ween Sale, with one e-bike seeing a $200 discount, while the brand’s RadWagons get a FREE accessory of up to a $200 value – plus, a bonus 15% discount on select models and gear for military, first responders, teachers, and other qualified GOVX members. During this sale, we’re seeing the continuance of the brand’s RadRover 6 Plus Step-Thru Fat-Tire e-bike at $1,399 shipped. This is a popular multi-terrain commuter that normally goes for $1,599 in full, though we’ve regularly seen it dropped down between $1,399 and $1,299, with some falls to $1,199 earlier in the year before tariffs began stiffening up the market. For only a handful of days more, you can jump on it for your needs with $200 cut from the price tag at the third-lowest rate we have tracked to date.

Save $165 on Autel’s stylish MaxiCharger Home 50A level 2 EV chargers in wood or blue colorways at $404

Autel’s official Amazon storefront is offering its MaxiCharger Home Level 2 50A EV Charger, in either a Wood Grain or the Prime-exclusive Sierra Blue colorway, at $403.75 shipped. Both of these normally go for $569 in full, with the Sierra Blue colorway spending far more time at that rate than the Wood Grain variant, which saw discounts to $455, $425, and a one-time appearance of its $399 low back in January, whereas the Sierra Blue’s $399 low was last seen in 2024. You’re looking at a $165 markdown on these two colorful charging solutions, which lands them both at the second-best prices we have tracked, though this is an annual low for the Sierra Blue model in particular.

While we have seen it go lower in the past, for the rest of the day, you’re looking at a $100 markdown that lands it amongst the lowest prices we’ve seen from Best Buy, letting you bulk up your arsenal to tackle snow-clearing needs in the upcoming months.

Archer Aviation is planning an air taxi network around the Miami metro area including airports

Archer Aviation is planning an air taxi network around the Miami metro area including airports

Air taxi Miami

Archer Aviation has announced partnerships in the Miami metropolitan area to establish a new air taxi network to support travelers around several key areas in Southern Florida, including local airports.

As you probably alrready know at this point. Archer Aviation ($ACHR) is a California-based developer of eVTOL and eCTOL aircraft that it continues to work toward implementing into commercial air taxi rides in the future. The plans for its network of sustainable aircraft have expanded to cities like New York and Chicago, as well as other countries like Japan and the United Arab Emirates.

In California, south of its headquarters, Archer intends to take to the skies above Los Angeles with a proposed air taxi network announced in August 2024. Building upon that network, Archer shared earlier this year that it had become the exclusive air taxi provider of the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.

On the other southern coast of the United States, Archer is planning another exciting air taxi network that includes the option of quiet, sustainable air travel around Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and several other key landmarks.

Archer partners up to establish Miami air taxi network

Archer Aviation shared details of its new air taxi network plans for Miami in a press release early this morning. If and when it comes to friuition, the proposed air taxi network will be a result of several new partnerships established by Archer in the Miami metropolitan area.

Some of those partnerships include real estate company Related Ross, Apogee Golf Club, Hard Rock Stadium – where existing heliports will be configured for eVTOLs and/or new air taxi vertiports will be erected. Stephen Ross, CEO and Chairman of Related Ross and Owner of the Miami Dolphins:

Our partnership with Archer marks a pivotal step in expanding South Florida’s regional connectivity through cutting-edge technology. We are integrating Archer’s electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft into our flagship locations across South Florida, including the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Related Ross developments in West Palm Beach, and Apogee Club in Hobe Sound. We’re excited to embrace a forward-thinking vision that transforms how people and businesses move across the region.

According to Archer, the new air taxi network will connect passengers to populated areas around Miami Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton and West Palm Beach, offering 10 to 20 minute flights. Plans also include easier travel to major airports around Southern Florida, including Miami International Airport (MIA), Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport (FLL), and Palm Beach International Airport (PBI), plus several general aviation airports. Miami Mayor, Francis Suarez, also spoke:

Miami has never been afraid to bet on the future. We’re a city that attracts visionaries, embraces breakthrough technology, and turns bold ideas into real impact. For years, I’ve worked with Archer as they’ve advanced a vision for an air-taxi network that will elevate Miami’s position as a global capital for innovation and mobility. What they’re building isn’t just transformational transportation, it embodies the Miami mindset: we lead, we innovate, and we redefine what’s possible.

Archer did not share a timeline on when this air taxi network may be operational around Miami, but we’d wager it’s still at least a couple of years away given the need for additional eVTOl development and FAA certifications in order to begin commercial operations in the US.

Germany’s largest offshore wind farm fires up its first turbine

Germany’s largest offshore wind farm fires up its first turbine

Germany’s largest offshore wind farm hit a big milestone: The first turbine at EnBW’s He Dreiht project has produced its first kilowatt-hour of electricity and sent it into the grid.

More turbines are expected to come online over the coming weeks. European energy provider EnBW has already installed 27 of the wind farm’s 64 turbines, all of which are scheduled to be commissioned by summer 2026.

Peter Heydecker, EnBW board member for Sustainable Generation Infrastructure, described the November 25 milestone as a “significant moment for EnBW.” With 960 megawatts (MW) of total capacity, He Dreiht is now Germany’s largest offshore wind farm.

Vestas supplied the 15 MW turbines, marking their world debut. Nils de Baar, president of Vestas Northern and Central Europe, said the giant turbine’s technology sets a new standard for offshore wind. “Its efficiency and performance enable a significant increase in energy yield per turbine.”

Just one rotation of the 15 MW turbine’s rotor can power the equivalent of four households for a day. The hub stands 142 meters (466 feet) tall, and the rotor’s 236-meter (774-foot) diameter sweeps a 43,742-square-meter (10.8-acre) area — roughly the size of six football fields. To put the scale into perspective, EnBW’s first offshore project, Baltic 1 in 2010, used 2.3 MW turbines.

EnBW wrapped up the wind farm’s internal cabling in August. Those lines connect all the turbines and feed into a converter platform operated by transmission system operator TenneT. That’s where the power is collected, converted from AC to DC, and sent to shore through two high-voltage DC cables.

Once complete, He Dreiht will generate enough electricity to power about 1.1 million households. The project is being built without state funding and sits roughly 85 kilometers (53 miles) northwest of Borkum and 110 kilometers (68 miles) west of Heligoland. EnBW’s offshore office in Hamburg is coordinating the build.

A partner group made up of Allianz Capital Partners, AIP, and Norges Bank Investment Management owns 49.9% of the project. Total investment comes in at around €2.4 billion.

BYD tried crushing its $180K luxury SUV with a 2-ton tree and it barely left a mark [Video]

BYD tried crushing its $180K luxury SUV with a 2-ton tree and it barely left a mark [Video]

The Yangwang U8L is among the most expensive Chinese vehicles, starting at about $180,000. To prove it’s built for just about anything, BYD dropped a 2-ton tree on it, three times, and the ultra-luxury pretty much brushed it off.

BYD drops a tree on its ultra-luxury SUV during testing

BYD launched the Yangwang U8L in September, a long-wheelbase version of the U8 off-road SUV. The U8 was first introduced in September 2023 as the first vehicle from BYD’s ultra-luxury sub-brand, Yangwang.

Yangwang is a new energy vehicle (NEV) brand that sells high-end plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) and 100% battery electric (BEV) vehicles as BYD expands into new segments.

The U8L is Yangwang’s fourth vehicle, following the U8, U9, and U7. It’s available in China with a quad-motor extended-range electric vehicle (EREV) system, delivering a CLTC range of 200 km (124 miles) on battery power alone.

A 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine serves as a generator, delivering a combined CLTC range of 1,160 km (720 miles).

Measuring 5,400 mm in length, 2,049 mm in width, and 1,921 mm in height, the Yangwang U8L is even bigger than the Rolls-Royce Cullinan and Range Rover Long Wheelbase.

BYD-luxury-SUV-tree-drop

BYD’s ultra-luxury SUV is priced from 1.28 million yuan ($180,000), making it one of the most expensive models from a Chinese brand.

It may look pretty, but the Yangwang U8L is built for far more than just good looks. Like the U8, the long-wheelbase version is equipped with advanced features such as emergency float mode, which allows it to float on water for up to 30 minutes, tank turns, crab walking, and more.

To prove its durability, BYD engineers put the luxury SUV through the paces, dropping a massive 2-ton tree on it, not once, but three times.

During the final drop, the company said the maximum impact energy reached 50.4 kJ, or about 37,200 lb-ft. After three consecutive drops, the Yangwang U8L barely even got a scratch. The body structure remained intact, the door still opened, the columns didn’t bend, and the vehicle could even drive like normal.
