I have a Yamaha gas cart, but we rented a lithium electric cart when we had extra visitors for almost a week.
We almost ended up with the electric cart running out of juice on the way home just by going to a restaurant and then one of the squares and back in a 4 hour span. We were down to something like 5% battery according to the dashboard. Was not much more than 20 miles of total driving. It seems when they claim a 40 mile range it becomes almost half that if you're averaging 20-25 MPH.

I have driven in my electric cart from Eisenhower to Savannah Center to Spanish Springs to Lake Sumter Landing to Sawgrass to Ednas to Brownwood and back to Eisenhower with at least 1/4 charge remaining. That's 42 miles with at least 14 miles remaining. People south of 44 can drive to Lake Sumter Landing and back with no concern in a modern EV cart.
