Try not to - but if I do, it’s because I’m passing it - convenience. I know the $6 chair I get there will fall apart in 6 months.

I don’t shop there to save money on a car.

For those who want more speed out of their golf cart without it being street legal ......
Well, wait till you get clocked and stopped. The fine (s), and there will be several, will be shockingly excessive. While many do get away with enjoying the extra mph, those few who have been ticketed, have a sorry story to tell.

My golfing buddy has one. After a few hundred miles bouncing around in TV you will notice the lack of "fit and finish" in the Evolution. Things start to squeak and rattle a lot.

If you are looking for a Lithium then you must consider range, and the Star Sirius gives you an honest 60+ miles on an advertised 80 mile range. I think they are made in SC.

EZ-GO has a good ride but the pedals are too far back for me. I'm a little over 6' tall and the Yamaha offers the best ride IMHO. My Yamaha is a 2021 gas and I'm really hoping soon Yamaha will get serious with Lithium and get beyond the disappointing effort they put out last year. If Yamaha ever does make a 80+ mile electric they will dominate the market.

That is an atomic cart with heat and air conditioning

First of all, I disagree that going 75 on a highway where the speed limit is more dangerous than speeding in a golf cart. What causes accidents on highways is not speed, it's weaving in and out of lanes.

The thing to look at here is percentage over the speed limit. 75 on a highway where the speed limit is 70 is 7% over the limit. Going 25 in your golf cart and you're 25% over the limit. Your not going 25% over a speed limit but over the limit which requires your vehicle to be registered and insured.

The big difference is that if you get stopped for going 75 on the turnpike, (which will never happen) you'll get a ticket and maybe a $100 fine. If you get stopped for going 25 on a street in your cart you'll be cited for driving an unregistered vehicle which carries a fine of at least $600 and possible loss of license.

You'll probably never get stopped for going 24 mph or less. The problem occurs if you get into an accident. At that point, the authorities will test your cart for maximum speed and if it's over 20, you could be in very serious trouble.

And, of course, comparing a golf cart to a lawn mower is absurd as everyone recognizes. The only purpose for making a statement like that is to annoy people. I wonder why anyone would want to do that.

Actually they are designed and assembled in Chino, California using some components made in China and some made elsewhere including the U.S.

I fail to understand WHY a retired person would be so keen to go 4 MPH faster? Why NOT be satisfied with 20MPH? The point of owning an electric golf cart isn't to race your neighbor to happy hour. The point is that the electric cart is NOT polluting the air around you and NOT being responsible for the heat waves around the US that are starting earlier in the summer. Also, electric carts are quieter and should last longer than the piston banging gas carts.
.........Better to be satisfied and happy about the Great things that electric golf carts offer and being on the leading edge of positive social change!

Not sure WHY anyone would complain about an Ebike? Because they are not using gasoline, from economics, they are keeping down the DEMAND for gasoline and thus the price. Everyone wants cheaper gasoline!

All golf carts look the same to me. They get you from A to B. They are NOT rolling Picasso paintings!

Good post! I agree!

I seem to notice a greater "need for speed" for golf carts, cars, trucks, and commercial vehicles during and after the Pandemic - also more taking-chances-type of dangerous driving.

Price wise, I think golfcarts in general are a joke when you consider how their made.
For $18 to $20 thousand, it better have power steering, a radio, much better suspension, and comfortable seats.

I
I've had mine for year and love it. No issues.
Great cart and love the lithium batteries. My wife really likes it.
Would buy again. Real person in Hemingway.

Really, you think a traditional golf cart like a Yamaha quiet tech looks the same as one of those Atomics that looks like a smart car, or a yesteryear cart looks like a Polaris Gem? They all look very different to me.

Anyone notice the "Axis" golf carts Lowes is selling.
Are they any good?

Interesting, but I don't think Lowes is offering test drives or warranty service. Doesn't state what kind of batteries.
3 left at Trailwinds.

Access Denied

Maybe there's a dealership agreement for service and warranty for Lowes products
like the mowers etc.

I bought mine at Luxus Golf Carts (when they were still Luxus and sold EVolutions) on 441 in Leesburg. It does 25. Was told all EVolution carts come from the factory set at 25 mph max speed (non LSV). The new dealer, Villages Discount Golf Cars, will reduce the max speed to 20 if they do work on your cart. If you tell them you bought at Luxus, they leave it as is. There is a dealer in Ocala that also leaves the 25 mph set. Legal? Technically not. However, the fact is there are countless golf carts in TV that exceed the 20 mph legal limit.

So electricity free, wow.

Ebikes same as 49cc scooters, electric scooter. When they can approach 40 MPH IMO need to be licensed and insured for street. Going up hill in my golf cart at 20MPH here come EBike passing me at 30 plus. IMO ebikes and LSV street only, no MMPs.

So what is LSV that can go over 25MPH which majority do? Nobody get LSV to just go 5 mph faster than regular golf cart.

An LSV that goes over 25 mph is an illegal vehicle.

It's not only the extra 5 mph but LSVs are allowed on streets with speed limits up to 35 mph. So you can drive on Morse and Buena Vista and go around the roundabouts and not have to take the MMPs an all of the tunnels.

It's not worth it to me but some people are willing to pay whatever it is to have all of the extra equipment and to register and insure the vehicle in order to go 5 mph faster and drive on 35 mph streets.

Not sure of their quality, but there are several large condo complexes in the Orlando area who use their utility cart models.

If one buys a regular bike, one does not need gas, or electric to ride.
