Yamaha and convert to Lithium.
Since Yamaha came out with the Drive2 carts, I've had 3 new ones, both electric and gas. I would suggest a Yamaha Drive2/AC electric, new or used. If it doesn't give you the range you want, swap out the batteries with a RoyPow Lithium. Surprising, I had no problem selling my used acid batteries on Craigslist. Extremely easy to install this unit. I have the middle of the three sizes they offer. My 105ah battery and charger was about $2700 delivered. It also came with an "install kit" specific to my cart. I can get 50-60 miles easy @ 19-20mph - which is the max with Yamaha electric stock controller. If you want to match (or exceed) the 24-26 mph that a lot of the gas carts go, just bolt on an upgraded controller. The RowPow only takes up half the space under the seat, so you could even mount the charger on-board and carry a standard extension cord to charge anywhere you can find an outlet! Oh... almost forgot to mention that my cart is now 400 lbs lighter too! (I had 8 - 6V batteries @ 62lbs each, new unit is 95lbs). No, I don't sell this stuff nor am I a paid endorser, I'm just mechanical, like to tinker with things and help people. Msg me if you want details.
