It's not "pure ethanol," it's "ethanol-free" meaning it has no ethanol in it at all. Ethanol-free gas is the recommended for most gas golf carts. It will extend the life of the engine a year or two.

HOWEVER: if you don't plan on owning your gas cart for more than 15 years, it won't really make that much of a difference. Those engines can last a LONG time, no matter which gas you use. You would use "regular" gas, never premium or high-octane.
