Ride1Up Prodigy V2 review: An affordable Brose mid-drive e-bike for the common man!

Baua Electric

The company has always sought to provide most of what you can get from higher-priced electric bike models, yet at a much more affordable price.

The Truth About Cars

When Toyota first previewed the MR2 in 1981 as the SA-X Prototype, the whole point was to offer customers a car that was incredibly engaging to drive while also being cheap to own. An argument could be made that electrification could be used to help keep the car cheap to operate. The recipe would presumably be different for the FT-Se.

This $680 4-seater electric swan boat makes my own Chinese e-boat look luxurious

Baua Electric

But after buying an ultra-cheap Chinese electric boat last year , this new one makes my own lazy lake cruiser look like a luxury yacht. Sure, it’s got a fiberglass hull, which is already surprising for such an affordable little boat. Compared to my $1,080 boat , this $680 masterpiece is a tad bit less decked out.
