They are claiming 80 miles on lithium batteries. Remember this is with a vehicle that has 4WD and is about 20% bigger in size and weight than a standard 2-place golf cart. It is meant for serious off roading. This thing can haul 1500 lbs. and tow a 2500 lb. trailer!!!!
Dealers are claiming Polaris is testing a golf cart prototype vehicle, and it has broken elusive the 100 mile barrier.
Is there an electric golf cart with a 120+ mile range on the horizon???
Sure, just add more batteries. The bigger the cart the more batteries you can stuff in.
