Greetings,

I’m a new resident in the Villages and have decided on a lithium powered cart. I have driven all three types, AGM, Lithium and Gas and I prefer the lithium version. I’m looking for a 4 seat facing forward and would appreciate any information/input regarding a good unit for a newbie.

Thank you,

Andy
Consider going to YouTube and search TVE (The Villages Experience) with Michael and Tiffany. They recently moved to The Villages and purchased a new electric 4-forward facing golf cart with all the gadgets for under $10K.

Keep in mind that the 4 seater that faces forward must parallel park in the squares. As it’s too long for normal head-in parking.

At the squares you can park next to any other cart, using the two cart per spot system. Outside the square area, you might have to parallel. If an event is happening and they create a golf cart only parking zone, you can park head one like the others.

Of all the time I visited a square, very few times I had to parallel park my Yamaha Concierge 4 seat facing forward.

Bintelli Nexus- great new model with alot of features including fans and roof speakers. They come with 72v 165amp which they claim has comparable range to a 48v 210amp lithium. I can not confirm nor deny that claim.
Many other forums have posts saying the 210 is discontinued from Evolution.

Power is measured in watts. Comparing total watts would roughly equate to range, given other things like weight are equal.
Watts = volts x amps

72 x 165 = 11,880
48 x 210 = 10,080
48 x 160 = 7,680

I always park head in next to to other carts and only stick out about a foot longer. In some cases, when the 2 seater carts don't pull up tight to the curb, we are the same distance into the road.
Also, the Evolution D5 is the same length or shorter than 2+2 carts that have a golf bag attachment that doubles as a grab bar for rear passengers. I park head in all the time with no issues.

Fun stuff. Reminds me of my intor to Electrical Engineering days!

I opted to pay extra for my 2024 Evolution D5 battery upgrade. That battery is 205 amps. Some have told me that is now the standard battery and that Evolution no longer offers the lower 165 amp battery but I haven't verified that.

Just like I drove all of them, and even though it says “custom”, that isn’t what it really means. We’ve decided on a lithium powered, only thing we’re waiting on is finding out about a certain color.
Did you get a Streetrod or Yesteryear?

Wow! So, for only $5,000 MORE than an Evolution D5 (I'm including the upgrade cost for the 205ah battery), I can own an Atlas?

Relax...Just another option. Just adding to "Ducatigator"s excellent post.
