Yes. 75 miles is a lot of driving for a day in a golf cart.

I'm with you, no freaking way I'm plugging in a drop cord every time I park my cart! That's just too much to ask!

I have a 2023 Star 2+2 Sirius cart and would suggest you do a bit more research before purchasing. I have the 210mH battery (largest) and am skeptical about their mileage claims. I have driven it about 2K so far and have mixed feelings. I live North of Spanish Springs and have wanted to go to Brownwood many times but don't trust the battery to get me there and back despite being well under the milage that the battery is supposed to give you. I do run a sound bar and additional lighting but question just how much power those drawn. The Star also has a very poor and inadequate braking system (only rear drum) as well as a multitude of creaks, squeaks and rattles. While it is very comfortable (I have the overly priced upgraded bucket seats) and looks very stylish, it lacks in quality regarding fit and finish. I do however like the lack of noise, gas smell and off the line responsiveness it has as well as the smooth ride while cruising. Personally, if I could do it over, I would buy the Evolution D5 Ranger. If after reading this, you still want a Star Sirius and like the color red, shoot me a message and I'll sell it to you. Not looking to give it away but I can save you a lot of money over a new one which I'm sure you have already priced out. Good luck.

Good Greif! Its about as hard as cracking a beer open.

I hereby swear off beer, those caps/pop tops are too difficult to navigate!

We do take a long trip (50 to 55 miles) about once a month with a group of people in our neighborhood. We enjoy the long drive and exploring. We had one cart that was electric and ran out of juice about 1/2 mile from home and we towed it back. They ended up selling it and getting gas. The other 5 to 6 carts that go with us are all gas. A lot of people do not enjoy this type of trip, but we like to explore the villages this way

Hi Vinscalese.

I have a lithium battery cart. The key is the size. I always suggest on these posts getting a lithium cart with a 210 battery. Plenty of range. I live in the deep South of TV, Enclave of Dabney. I have had my cart since March of this year and have 2800 miles already. I do a minimum of 45 miles per day and have plenty to spare. I have gone from my house to the Polo Club, Nancy Lopez and Spanish Springs and back. Have plenty to spare.

To answer your question, the Star does have the 205/210 battery so you will get the 75 miles and be totally fine. Don't have range anxiety. Just plug in everytime you get home. Start the day with a full charge.

Hope this helps.

Reach out if you have any other questions.

Have a blessed day
Thanks
Serge

I don’t have a golf cart, but I drive a four year old Prius Prime that can drive 26 miles on electric only before the gas motor kicks in. I live three miles from the intersection of 466a and Buena Vista. I can drive to Sam’s Club and back or the Historic Villages and back, or to the edge of The Villages southeast of Sawgrass and back without using any gas. That means around an hour of driving for me round trip. So I think you are okay.

Oh, my! It takes me a whole 5 seconds to do that. I start to cry every time I’m faced with having to do that burdensome chore.

I just love it when people who have never owned an electric tell people who do own electrics what it is like. SMH.

I agree, the process of plugging in is only slightly harder than shifting into park and hitting the off button. On top of that it's habit, you grab your hat and wallet when you leave - you plug in your car when you get off.

I wrongly hoped yous could see I was making fun of rocksnap.

What in the hills of Kentucky is "rocksnap"? :a20:

We have a STAR electric golf cart and have plenty of range for The Villages. We did a "1-day tour" of The Villages in our cart and traveled over 70 miles from North to South on 1 charge. We've never gone that far in 1 day again. Most of our trips do not exceed 10 to 20 miles, with 30 miles being a "long trip".

Absolutely
 

I have a star. I went through same anxiety. I have travelled from citrus grove to Spanish Springs and back and still had over 50% charge.

He (or she) is one of our well meaning forum peers that evidently has golf cart maintenance experience. He made a kind of emotional post or 2 about gas vs electric and I was poking fun at him (or her).

I was trying to be funny, I hope I didn't hurt any feelings. If I did I apologize.

BTW, not a chance I'm swearing off beer even if I have to chew the bottle open.

We've had both, and they both have their advantages and disadvantages. With the electric cart, which was a new lithium cart we were told that it had an 80 mile range when in reality if we used it for just golf and running around during the day and forgot to plug it in at night, we weren't going anywhere in the morning. Yamaha gas carts are quiet, customizable and you'll never have to think about range.
