Pro - longer run times allowing coverage of greater distance and/or perhaps higher speeds sustained for longer periods than lower voltage carts
Cons - as with any electric cart there is still a limit on run time/distance. You can't realistically stop on the way and recharge a cart like you can stop and fill up a gas cart with gas. Also, eventually batteries wear out and they are not cheap. Replacing 72 volts worth of batteries will be even more expensive than 48 volts. I owned 2 48v club cars before moving to TV. Batteries lasted about 5 years but really started to show signs of age after 4, and that was with taking very good care of them. New batteries for just one of the carts was close to $800.
