With the price of carts going up and the price of batteries going down, it is unlikely the the cart will essentially be completely disposable due to the cost of a replacement battery.

I believe the warranty on my battery is eight years. Given that the manufacturer does not want to cover warranty claims, I expect the battery to last at least ten years. Seeing the advance in technology over the past three years, I won't be replacing the battery in ten years, I'll be ready for an upgrade with an entirely new cart.
If you use your cart only for playing golf, keep it in a garage and out of the sun when it's not in use, charge it properly, around 10 years. If you use it as a daily form of transportation, somewhat less than 10 years. Currently it costs between $1000 and $3000 to replace one 48v battery.
