That is the future of golf carts. They require no maintenance, last for 15 years and can go over 100 miles on a charge.

You can have your cart converted or they sell a new Smart Cart with a Toyota motor and a lot of accessories for about $10,000.
According to Battery Boys web site lithium batteries last 10 years and other web sites confirm this. Four 12 volt batteries cost upward to $5,000 which amounts to $500 per year. So, in two years that is $1,000. For that amount you can buy Trojan batteries that will last 3 to 5 years. Also lithium batteries go dead without a warning.
So, what makes lithium batteries such a great deal?
