Lithium Ion batteries are the way to go. They don't require watering and won't lose their charge if you leave them unused during the summer months. And they are far lighter, too. I would expect the prices to come down over the years since they are "new" to golf carts right now. And I would also pick a cart with A/C motors over D/C. Not all carts with lithium ion batteries are A/C. Carts with D/C motors lose torque and speed going uphill.
