Heybike drops its Hauler Cargo e-bike with 440-pound payload and 55 to 85-mile range to new $1,199 low

Heybike has launched a special flash sale through February 28 on its Hauler Cargo e-bike for $1,199 shipped. This newer model hit the market back at the end of summer carrying an $1,899 price tag, with discounts only going as low as $1,399, even during Black Friday. With the start of the new year the price got permanently cut down to $1,499 while these flash savings are dropping things lower than we’ve ever seen, giving you $300 in savings off the new tag which beats out a lot of other cargo models on the market that tend to sit at higher rates. What’s more, you’ll also be getting a free large rear basket along with your purchase.

Heybike’s Hauler e-bike cruises into view at up to 28 MPH top speeds with its 750W brushless geared hub motor (peaking at 1,400W) and two options for the removable battery setup, depending on how much traveling you’ll be getting into. The single 18Ah option provides you with up to 55 miles of travel distance when utilizing its PAS levels, or you can add an additional 12.5Ah battery for $200 more to bump that max range up to 85 miles. Considering it is a cargo model with a 440-pound carrying capacity, that is some serious potential for errand running, package hauling, and more – plus, there are even foldable running boards for when you’re bringing passengers along for the ride.

Some of its other notable features include the hydraulic front suspension fork, front and rear hydraulic disc brakes, puncture-protected tires with fenders over each, a 7-speed Shimano derailleur, an LED headlight with an auto-on feature, an integrated taillight with braking functionality, a kickstand, the obvious rear cargo rack, and an LCD display.

NIU takes 40% off KQi e-scooter series with the 25-mile KQi2 Pro down at $450

NIU has launched a new sale across its KQi series of e-scooters through March 2 with up to 40% in savings available. Of the many models in this series, one of the most popular is the KQi2 Pro Electric Kick Scooter that is down at $449.98 shipped during this sale. Normally this model carries a $649 full price tag, with it mostly spending the last year keeping above $400, though we did see it go as low as $379 (and $369 in 2023) during the fall holiday sales. Today’s deal comes in with a 31% markdown, cutting $199 off the tag to go back in your pocket at the fourth-lowest price we have tracked. This model is currently unavailable at Amazon, with only a refurbished option for $260.

NIU’s KQi2 Pro e-scooter is a balanced model that offers affordable assistance through your daily commute, whether you’re a first-time or veteran rider. The 48V battery here powers the 300W motor to carry you for up to 25 miles on a full charge, topping out at 17.4 MPH speeds. It’s been given regenerative brakes (always happy to see) that help to extend your riding time through the recycling of energy while also using the four different riding modes: e-save, sport, custom, and pedestrian. It’s been built with IP54 water-resistance protections for those moments where you might get caught in inclement weather or when riding through the aftermath. You’ll also be getting an LED headlight and taillight, a secondary front drum brake, a foldable body, and an LED dashboard display to adjust settings – which you can also do through the companion app on your smartphone, including locking its systems when not in use.

Travel 12 miles on the budget-friendly GoTrax APEX XL e-scooter down at $244

Amazon is offering folks a budget-friendly commuter in the form of GoTrax’s APEX XL Electric Scooter at $244.04 shipped. Down from its usual $350 price tag, this is one of the lowest rates we’ve seen, especially over the last year, where much of 2024 kept above $280 until Black Friday and Christmas sales brought down as low as $241. Today’s deal comes in as a 30% markdown, cutting $106 off the tag and landing it down among the lowest rates we’ve tracked – just $4 above the all-time low we last saw in 2021.

While it may not have a bunch of fancy bells and whistles like some higher-end e-scooters, the APEX XL still provides some solid commuting assistance for folks with shorter distances to travel. The 36V 5.2Ah battery here provides up to 12 miles of distance on a single charge, with the 250W motor able to deliver up to 15.5 MPH top speeds. The 8.5-inch honeycomb tires ensure you’ll never be stranded with a flat tire, especially if you’ve got a schedule to keep, while its foldable design makes storing it after hopping off all the more easier – especially if you’re taking it to work with you.
