Check how much the cart weights, the heavier it is the more power it requires.
A new elec will go 50 miles, a lot more with solar.

How much further than 50 miles do you need for the villages lifestyle?
I have 8, six volt batteries, traveled 44 miles one day just to see how far my range was. Still had three bars on the coulomb meter. Spent all day doing it, never would need even 3/4 of that for my normal routine.
cost, 9 kWh or $1.00 to recharge. At $3.80 a gallon, that's 160 mpg.
Can't see where the solar would be cost effective.
