Default Golf cart running hot

Mrs Fox has a 36v E-Z-Go which has new batteries, and had a reconditioned motor put in about a year ago.

After any journey of more than a mile there is a smell (possibly hot oil?) coming from under the seat and the two plastic covers under the passenger side of the seat are hot to the touch. I assume that the larger cover hides the motor?

Mrs Fox does not drive at the cart's top speed so I do not understand why the cart is running hot. Any thoughts?

Thank you
