Sure they sell electric, go in one of their stores and they have ONE all they way in the back.
the salesmen immediately say don't buy them, they knock them as undependable etc.
I think you need to ask why?
Answer-------I think the
margin of profit is greater on gas carts.
So the knock is all profit derived not usability.
As Dottie said they work fine, fact any can do a min of 45 miles on a charge, in 3.5 years I've been here only saw one towed.
So let's be honest, gas carts can break down and need to be towed once in while too!
How many hours can you sit in cart and drive in a day?
My butt would be sore after 40 miles.
When I tested my solar cart I used 3 different drivers to go the 73 miles on the test. we were all tired.
Most folks go 30 at most a day, some 10......
If you're concerned about battery longevity get lithium's they last 15 plus years never need water.
I still have not plugged my carts into shore power in 3.5 years. The solar always keeps it fully charged.

With solar they are $400-$700 due to the fed rebate
