The latest Samsung SDI battery cell data sheet (Rev7) states 80% capacity after 1000 charge cycles...So 48 miles after 60,000 miles instead of the 60 miles when new. The capacity fade is pretty linear.

At 6 cents per mile less for EZGO 4.2 electricity than quietech gasoline...$3600 savings over 60,000 miles for battery replacement.

Oh, zero maintenance...Just replace tires on the EZGO RXV Elite. That's at least another $1500 savings over gas cart maintenance.

Yamaha will have their lithium cart out in a couple weeks. I suspect it will have at least a 60 mile range.
