Its all about range.The gas carts have a big advantage when it comes to that.I believe because I have an electric that the gas carts can go well over 200 miles on one fill up.Thats pretty darn good.My electric has 8 6 volt batteries.I have a high speed motor and curtis cab doors and after market seats which are really heavy,3 times that of typical bench seats.If i`am lucky I get maybe 45 miles on a charge.I live in the center of the villages.I can get to any of the squares in less then 30 minutes.I like electric mainly because they are so quiet and easy to maintain.If your the type of person thats going to go 60 plus miles a day in your golf cart then by all means get gas.
