Electric golf carts are easier to modify than gas powered carts, but you will have to spend extra money to do so. Electric golf carts are environment-friendly and less noisy.[1] Electric golf carts may seem like a cheaper solution to gas, but you need to replace the batteries every 4 year or so and it can get costly. For most use on golf courses and around your neighborhood an electric golf cart will do the trick.[2] Electric golf carts are fine for golfers who will use their carts only on the golf course. Those using their golf carts in more all-terrain environments, at construction sites, or during camping or skeet shooting trips will probably want a gas powered golf cart as it can handle varying terrain and long distances better.[3]
Gas carts are powerful and faster than electric carts, and therefore potentially more dangerous. But on many hilly courses that do not usually have adequate cart paths, you will need both the extra power and speed to driver correctly thru fairways and roughs to safely play your ball.[6] Gas carts use a 9 horsepower motor and electric carts have 2.5 ? A gas cart tank holds 6 gallons and will go about 150 miles per tank.[7] Gas golf carts offer more hauling capacity than their electric equivalents and do not have to return to base for recharging, as spare cans of gas can always be carried.

Motorized golf carts are beginning to replace golf pull carts and push carts. They start at the push of a button, steer easily and have speed settings that are easy to control.[12] Motorcycle News (via our friends at AutoBlogGreen ) says Honda is serious about building a workable Ebike and selling it to the likes of you and me by 2010. Sure, that sounds plausible.[13]
Buying a golf cart can be of considerable expense, especially in today?s economy. You can save yourself a nice chunk of change by buying a used electric golf cart.[21] But if you do want a new cart I strongly suggest that you take a look at this online sporting shop . They are very fairly priced and you?re able to read customer reviews of each product before you purchase anything.[22]
