Something else to consider is ergonomics (because we inhabit older, aging bodies!).
The steering column/wheel on the yamaha carts is off center from the center of the drivers seat.
If you use your cart a lot you are going to be putting your spine, hips, legs off-kilter while in the cart.
This was the dealbreaker for me (combined with noise and fumes from gas carts).
We bought older EZGO RXV with all the comfy bells and whistle very cheap. Husband upgraded batteries. Still way below cost of new or even recent models of electric of gas carts. We have a very good range on the cart after three years of heavy usage as transportation and on courses.
EZGO steering column is centered on drivers seat. My back, hips knees are grateful. Good luck!
