No matter what cart you buy, make sure you have a good dealer. They all have issues at one point or another, and can all be easily fixed.
I love my Evolution and saved over $10K compared to a new Yamaha with the same bells and whistles. The Atlas is about $5K-$7K more than the Evolution.
I'm over 5,000 miles and still love it.

Same with the E-ZGo lithium carts. Over 5,000 miles and have no complaints.
With all the lithium carts in the Villages, if there was a battery problem then someone's hairdresser's nephew's girlfriend's father would be talking about by now. I've asked on here a few times and no one has said their OEM lithium battery needed to be replaced.
My warranty goes to '31 or '33 so I don't expect to see any problem for several years. However, some of the original carts might be nearing the 10-year mark and expired warranties. Maybe we'll hear of some battery replacements in the near future.
