Star Cirus golf cart
 

Has anyone owned or considering buying a Star Sirius battery golf cart?

Pros???
Cons???

Thank you …..

I looked at one. I wasn't thrilled with the seats...

Seemed like a rough ride compared to the Yamaha ride.

Search for front suspension issues

There are 1000's of them, in The Villages. They seem to be the new cart of choice, for the folks who don't want to deal with the legacy gasoline carts. They are built by JH Global Industries, who have been making electric vehicles for 30+ years. JH Global makes the vast majority of "shiny wheels" and other upgrades you see on Yamaha golf carts.


Sunshine Golf Carts in Ocala will sell you one, for about $3000 less than you have to pay to buy one in The Villages.

I bought mine in August
 

We recently bought a home in the Villages and when I was comparing the options for my golf car went with the Star Sirius. I love it. Back in NY we have a Polaris side by side and a quad we use on our property. So I didn’t purchase the Star golf cart because of the gas vs electric debate. I know from my own experience taking my gas powered vehicles the number one thing I had always wished for was for them to be quiet so I can hear and speak with my passengers easier. I test drove the Yamaha and all the other options and fell in love with the Sirius. Beyond it being quiet, it’s got excellent acceleration from a dead stop and climbing out of the tunnels, etc. I love the fact that it came with Cruise control for any long straights your driving, and garage door openers that are integrated into the car. I had a speaker bar installed that integrates with our mobile phones so we can listen to music and turn by turn directions. Without the noise of a gas engine, its bliss It was a bit pricier than the other carts, but after driving them all the Star was the clear winner for us. I truly don’t feel you would go wrong with whatever you choose. Riding around on a golf car is fun. :)

Took a brief look at one. looks like they have a beefier higher quality front suspension.

Get an electric Club Car. All the local repair services stock their parts so there is no delay in ordering them. Club Cars last forever. Mine is almost 24 years old and runs like new...actually better than new because way back then it had heavy lead acid batteries. I replaced them a few years ago with LiFePo4 batteries. Club cars are great carts!

I would choose the Star Sirius over the EZGO Elite...It's a better value and built as a true LSV. It also uses LFP battery technology which is a more durable cell structure than the other lithium technologies. The Star 210ah battery will go 80 miles.

"I love the fact that it came with Cruise control for any long straights your driving"

Now that is decadence, rite thar.

Love star
 

No bigger room in any of,Yamaha ezgo,club, atomic, elite. Tried them all. Also so smooth compared to rental Yamahas ive been in. Whisper quiet, and go 80 miles. 3 locking compartments including an insulated frunk that holds 22lb turkey. I bought the best because I use it every day many trips and need comfort.

I have a 2011 Star cart which I converted to lithium 3 years ago. I couldn't be more pleased. Rides smooth, zero maintenance, easy to stow rear seats, and it looks great. It has the upgraded bucket seats.

Thanks so much for everyone friendly replies…..

Also regarding maintenance on the lithium battery, anyone or business beside villages golf cart perform this as a mobile service?

Watch the height it would not fit in my garage to tall.
