2011 Yamaha has a sealed gas cap and there are no smells in the garage from the cart whatsoever..no battery acid leaking on the floor or driveway either..

Zero smell or fumes in the garage. Those that complain about fumes are in tunnels and it only lasts for a few seconds (tunnels are not that long). If they were behind a car it would be worse because the tunnels have no ventilation system and are not really needed as compared to a tunnel on the Penna. turnpike which are several miles long.
That said I don't know why they can't muffle a small engine in a cart when they can muffle a V8 in a car. If Honda would build one it would be quiet. Compare any A/C generator to Honda's and see how quiet Honda is. Notice all the vendors at the squares use only Honda. I guess it's just a matter of how much would you be willing to pay for quiet as Honda is expensive but so quiet.

the reason we bought electric golf carts is because of the noise and odor of the gas ones.
