I have an atomic car and while the A/C and heater does cut the amount of range it's not "significant" surprisingly. Yes its like a small car. I like it because it has a metal cage around you and steel safety bars in the doors. I'm sure it's not as safe as a "real" car but way safer than a traditional golf cart where some people drive around without seat belts and with their leg hanging out of the cart. The 4 door Atomic cart is actually a little cheaper than a fully equipped EZGo electric cart. We like it a lot.
Also some people say, " the gas cart can go from one end of the Villages to the other while an electric may not make it " but i'm not sure many go that far often. For us in Osceola Hills it will take us 56 minutes by cart and 15 minutes by car to go to Fenney so we take the car for trips to Fenney. On the other hand to get to Ezell it will take us 25 minutes so we would probably take the cart.
