However, the jury is really out on these lithium electric carts because they do not have a long track record.
The only cart out there right now with over 2 decades plus of track record is the Yamaha gas.
With the best ride and handling and steering of all carts and the indestructible Yamaha motor, it is the safe bet. By the way, the Yamaha gas is now almost as quiet as an electric cart.
I think your answer is very helpful. Nice!
We bought a lithium battery operated cart from Cart World and it is FANTASTIC.
Friends critique us because they hear that those batteries can catch fire. We do not care. No noise, no maintenance beyond an annual physical. 8 year lithium battery warrenty.
