Steering problems in EZ-GO golf carts can be due to worn-out tie rod ends, loose steering components, and misaligned wheels. To fix this problem, inspect and replace damaged parts, tighten loose connections, and ensure proper wheel alignment.

Above all, regular maintenance and lubrication will help prevent steering problems from occurring again.

Even though your golf cart is still in top condition, it can experience steering problems, especially when you drive it often on uneven or rugged terrain. This happened to my recently purchased 2013 EZGO RXV electric golf cart. I got it with a drop spindle lift kit and custom tires, and the steering was extremely loose. 

Being mechanically inclined, I tried replacing the steering gearbox and the steering. Still, the steering remained a little loose. Upon researching other golf cart owners who have experienced similar issues, I discovered this is a widespread problem, particularly with people using EZGO.

I had a productive chat with the local technician in the area and did further mechanical practice to figure out the most common causes of steering problems, how to trace them, and their perfect quick fixes. 

Generally, a steering wheel that makes the cart turn too little, too much, or not at all is already a problem. No matter the cause, the fixing process takes patience because it concerns the steering. 

It all comes down to knowing what to look for and how to tackle the particular issue. 

1. The Steering Is Misaligned

Misalignment of the steering is one of the common problems diagnosed with defective EZGO Golf Carts. The primary cause of this misalignment is when the wheel is turned excessively to either left or right with the steering. 

The Solution 

In such a situation, all you need is a tweak in the alignment system—a steering adjustment—to get the steering more responsive. The following steps can guide you on how to go about the process: 

Step 1: Use an adjustable wrench to loosen the central shank nut attached to it. 

TIP: If you remove the nut, the steering wheel may pop out, so be conservative. 

Step 2: Tap the wheel with a rubber mallet on both sides and pull it upward. I recommend using a rubber mallet instead of the metal punch many technicians use because it helps prevent damage while loosening it. 

Step 3: Once the steering wheel comes off, put it back on and make the threads on either side of the steering rack even. 

Step 4: Check and ensure the shaft twists aren’t interacting with the jam nuts in the rack. You can make this happen by adjusting or tightening the routing wheel with a wrench. 

Step 5: Rotate the wheel to the center and align it to your preferred adjustment. Bring it back to the default position and repeat on the opposite side. 

After doing this, you are probably dealing with loose steering and still find your EZGO golf cart giving you problems. 

2. The Steering Is Loose

When fixing loose steering problems in golf carts, an area of focus is the tie rod. Adjusting the tie rod of your EZGO cart will fix loose steering. But in rare cases, the problem is traced to bushings, pinion and rack arrangements, or even the steering box. 

I will not dwell on the possibility of a steering box, pinion, or rack arrangement because the critical solution usually replaces those parts due to worn-out problems. You can contact a technician for such a task. 

However, if the loose steering is traced to the tie rod adjustment, it needs tightening. Here’s how to fix it:

The Solution 

Before you proceed with the steps, I recommend you get a small floor jack to lift the cart due to the limited ground clearance of these vehicles. You also need to attach wheel chocks to the back wheels. Now follow these steps: 

Step 1: Use the wheel to turn the rack to one side.

Step 2: Locate the bottom adjustment nut and loosen it with a wrench. Remember to use a flat screwdriver if what controls the middle adjustment is a screw. If it’s a nut, then the Allen wrench will work perfectly.

Step 3: Rotate the middle adjustment clockwise to attach to the rack. Again, turn counter-clockwise by a 22.5- to 45-degree angle. Repeat this step to assess the binding.

Step 4: Lift the cart to remove the jack, then remove the chocks once they are firm on the ground.

Step 5: The connection between the steering and wheels must be tight and synchronized with the entire machinery.

TIP: If the steering wheel is not binding well when rotating the middle adjustment clockwise to attach to the rack, the tie rods may be faulty and need replacement. 

3. The steering is hard 

I have read and seen many technicians talk about fixing EZGO golf cart steering problems on forums, but only a few people address the issue of stiff steering in these carts. 

At one time, the 2013 EZGO RXV Electric had a complex steering problem. The wheels move in direct proportion to the steering wheel. But when making a turn, it feels like there is an immediate resistance to the turn, followed by breaking through that resistance for less than a quarter turn. It will often occur in both directions.

If this situation sounds familiar, you shouldn’t hesitate to change parts without knowing the problem. 

In most situations, stiff steering on EZGO golf carts is traced to a faulty steering box. However, the culprits can be the ball joints and the steering wheel. 

The Solution 

Before calling the attention of a dealer technician, I had pulled the steering wheel, but all looked normal at that end. I replaced the left front A-Arm because the bolt was severely worn and off-center, but that didn’t make a difference. 

Upon the inspection of the dealer technician, the steering box was the culprit. More precisely, the steering column had to be replaced because it got bent at the joint where the yoke goes into the steering box. 

So, if your EZGO golf cart develops stiff steering, the steering box is a significant area to look at above everything else. 

Still No Dice? 

If you’ve tried all the above fixes and your EZGO golf cart isn’t as responsive as it used to be, then there’s possibly more than meets the eye (especially if you’re running on older models like 1989 EZGO RXV and 1996 EZGO TXT model)

In such a situation, you need the help of a technician to take a professional look at the problem. But remember that no matter the model you use, new or old, steering problems can surface anytime.

Golf courses are uneven or rugged terrain, and the steering wheel can get off-centered or loose when dealing with it. 

So, above all, inspect the steering wheel periodically and adjust it whenever necessary, using the right tools. Most routine front suspension and steering maintenance consists of periodic inspections for loose, worn, or damaged components, alignment checks, and lubrication of ball joints and wheel bearings.

EZGO manufacturer has guided you through their models’ maintenance, repair, and service procedures.  

The main reason why the EZGO Gas golf cart hesitates when accelerating is that it has a dirty carburetor. However, in some cases, the culprits could be a problem with the throttle sensor or wiring, a low battery, and a fault in the motor or controller.

To solve this issue, check the rubber boot and clean it if you spot any dirt. If that doesn’t fix it, troubleshoot for throttle, battery, motor, and controller defects.

Problems with accelerators are common in golf carts. Numerous users on various online communities have mentioned that the Ezgo Gas model has acceleration issues. I realized this when it happened with my EZGO TXT gas golf cart recently.

You are probably familiar with fixing accelerator issues in an average car. Still, I eventually realized that the methods and solutions differ from those you can apply to carts.

The Gas Club Car is typically expected to start immediately when pressing the gas pedal. But several times during the round, the pedal is pushed, and there is a hesitation. 

In my situation, I even had to push the pedal to the floor before the starter engaged and the engine started. Being mechanically inclined, I tried a bunch of troubleshooting, which failed until I could fix it with the help of the technical support personnel.  

In this article, I’ll show you how the acceleration hesitation is solved on an Ezgo gas golf cart and other alternative troubleshooting tips you can try if there’s still no dice. 

The Fix That Worked For Me

After doing a lot of guesswork, I still had problems with my Club Car hesitating while starting. For context, I had ticked the following solutions: 

• Purchased the highest Cold Cranking Amp battery
• I Checked the pedal linkage – from pedal to governor (controller) and from that top to the carburetor.
• I checked the starter generator belt, and it’s tight.
• I checked the voltage of the battery, and it is 12.83 volts.
• Removed and cleaned all the connections.
• I installed a new ground wire from the battery to the starter/generator.

After all these measures, the hesitation was still happening. However, some of these steps have worked for many. But mine was different. Recently, I even had a problem where the starter would continue to run even though the cart was turned off, and the spark plug wire was pulled.

I realized that I had to seek more professional help. The diagnosis at the workshop revealed that the cart’s voltage regulator was terrible. I also had to replace the solenoid. Upon putting a battery analyzer on the battery, it showed less than 200 CCA.

I had to replace the battery with a new one (800 CCA), and now it started and ran like a new cart. The hesitation when accelerating my Ezgo gas club cart disappeared after I replaced the voltage regulator, changed the solenoid, and got a better battery. 

If you’re facing a similar situation, this can be a direction for you. But remember that yours may not be as severe as mine. You could only have a dirty carburetor and no further technical issues. 

This is why I encourage you to identify the culprit before making any technical changes when your golf cart hesitates when accelerating. After a deep conversation with the technical personnel who attended to me and further research, I gathered the common causes that make particular Ezgo gas golf carts hesitate when you pedal the acceleration.

6 Most Common Possible Reasons Why Gas Golf Carts Hesitate When Accelerating

If your EZGO Gas golf cart hesitates while accelerating, the reason can be traced to any of these issues:

1. The carburetor is clogged with dirt and restricts fuel and gas flow to the engine.
2. The throttle cable isn’t in the correct position.
3. The battery is low or has a weak charge, which makes it unable to provide enough power for acceleration.
4. A fault in the motor or controller causes it not to provide the necessary energy for smooth acceleration.
5. A problem with the throttle sensor or wiring is blocking the proper signals to the motor for consistent acceleration. 
6. Limited power output settings or programming limitations.

Some of these issues will require the intervention of a technical expert. But before you go through that hassle, here are the basic steps you can take that can most likely solve the issue and get your cart to work correctly:

How To Fix Gas Golf Cart Hesitate When Accelerating

Fixing the accelerator problems of a gas golf cart is easier once you can pinpoint the source of the problem. First of all, open the hood, identify the symptoms, then consider the following troubleshooting attempts: 

Step 1: Thoroughly examine the cable connections and condition

The first step is to look at the cable connections. Are there loose connections or defective wires? This could be a significant reason. Replace the faulty cables. If you can’t identify any, reattach the wires tightly to the parts they belong to. 

Poor cable connections are a commonly reported culprit for hesitation when accelerating Gas golf carts. But it may not solve the problem permanently. But it’s worth a try.

Step 2: Clean the carb

Detach the carburetor from the engine and other parts, then remove the piston and float assembly, for example, a piston, float chamber, throttle valve, and other factors.

You can spray this carburetor cleaning solution on all surfaces using a small plastic brush and thoroughly scrub all the parts and places. 

After thorough cleaning, use a small cloth to remove residual solvent and reattach the component.

Step 3: Test the solenoid with a multimeter.

If there are no problems with the wire and the carb is clean, test the solenoid using a multimeter. Since this component is responsible for allowing the electrical current from your battery to provide power to the entire cart, it can cause hesitation during accelerating when it’s faulty. 

First, detach the wires of the component and keep the terminals separated from each other to identify the resistance[ohms] of the solenoid on the multimeter. If it’s beyond 0.4 ohms, the solenoid is wrong, and you should replace it. 

Step 4: Try changing the battery 

A faulty battery is another common reason for hesitation when accelerating. The power supply from the battery weakens over an extended period of usage. It’s an easy but expensive solution. However, this may not be an issue if your cart is new. 

Still No Dice? 

After trying all these measures, and your Ezgo gas golf cart still stalls when accelerating, it means there’s more than meets the eye. It means the issue is coming from somewhere we’re not looking. 

Consider the weight or cargo on the golf cart. Excess weight can affect acceleration, so remove unnecessary items and see if anything changes. 

If that’s not the case, consider having a qualified mechanic or technician diagnose the problem. Occasionally, hesitation when accelerating stems from complex engine or drivetrain issues. 

The Cost Of Fixing Gas Golf Cart Accelerator Problems

If you take your cart to a qualified technician to fix accelerator issues, they will most likely replace some components, as seen in my case. Of course, it can be cheaper if you only get the diagnosis and do it yourself. 

But a professional will charge for replacement parts and work hours. For an Ezgo golf cart, new batteries can cost around $1,000, while a speed controller system costs as much as $280. Expect to pay about $30 for the carburetor and solenoids each, depending on the voltage and type. 

R-Motion golf simulator and swing analyzer is a bang for a buck. Pricing under $300, the device is a valid option for a quick and fun way to enjoy golf when you can’t go into a golf course.

It measures ball speed, club speed, smash factor, swing path, distance, and the launch angle. However, R-Motion has been discontinued, so there’s no customer support. The simulator has a track record of giving Inconsistent readings for short chips and needs a hitting mat and impact net for better performance.

Even though Rapsodo, the manufacturer, doesn’t appear to sell this model any longer, several recommendations on various golfers’ online communities point to this R-Motion as one of the viable options for “accurate and affordable” performance. 

The reviews on R-Motion are mixed. If you’re considering getting the R-Motion golf simulator, you need a compact, less complex, and affordable training device to help you improve your game. 

The R-Motion golf simulator uses photometric technology, which measures swing and ball data and provides instant feedback on a range of clubhead and ball statistics. It measures clubhead and golf ball contact data with a high-speed camera while the device’s software calculates the ball trajectory and distance.

When I went to a set-up shop for the off-season, I realized Rapsodo discontinued the whole program of the R-Motion and not just the device itself – software that I needed to update. 

People still use the dongle and 14 clips, and I brought it to an indoor practice facility last week, along with a Foresight tracking system. The two systems track different data points, so it is difficult to tell whether R-Motion was accurate or not.

However, the R-Motion was close for the most part, and the flight path was comparable. There were shots that the two provided very different numbers.

In the rest of this article, you will learn all you need to know about the Rapsodo R-Motion Golf Simulator and Swing Analyzer to help you determine if it’s worth your investment. 

Rapsodo R-Motion Golf Simulator Specifications

Here’s a tabular list of some relevant specifications for the R-Motion Golf Simulator:

Key features

The Rapsodo R Motion golf simulator is a sensor you clip to your golf clubs to detect swings. You then sync the sensor with your phone or PC to obtain important swing data. Here are the key features of this club: 

1. Swing analysis: The R-Motion system includes sensors that attach to your golf club and capture data about your swing, including club speed, path, face angle, and impact conditions. This data is then used to provide insights into your swing mechanics and helps you identify areas for improvement.

2. Realistic simulation: The system works with The Golf Club simulation software to provide a virtual golfing experience. It tracks your club’s movement and translates it into a simulated golf shot on a screen. This allows you to play rounds of golf on various virtual courses without leaving your home.

3. Ease of setup: It’s an easy-to-use option since the sensors attach to your club without requiring significant modifications or adjustments. The software is typically installed on a computer or other compatible device, and you might need to connect to a projector or screen for the virtual course display.

4. Accuracy: The R-Motion isn’t as advanced as some high-end golf simulators, but it offers reasonable accuracy in capturing swing data and translating it into virtual shots. The number of attachments you use, the sensor calibration, and the club type will also influence the accuracy.

5. Data feedback: The system typically provides real-time feedback on your swing data, allowing you to see the results of your shots, analyze your swing metrics, and make adjustments accordingly.

6. No golf mat or net: The Golf simulator does not come with an itstanglet or catch; you must purchase them separately. However, you can achieve a more immersive experience by hooking your laptop to a projector and ng into a net.

You should go with a short throw projector like this BenQ MW632ST WXGA  short throw projector so that you can eliminate shadows.

Accessories

You get one standard tracker or sensor when you purchase the R-Motion golf simulator. The package also comes with the following accessories: 

• Classic owner manual to put you through the setup steps
• Four durable clips are available as standard. (You can supplement t the sensor by buying spinster clips, which cost close to $100 more, so you don’t have to remove and install them for every one of your clubs.)
• Software is included in the “lite” version. It has 15 virtual golf courses and a driving range. You can download it for free.
• You can access the app from your Google Play Store.

How To Use R-Motion Golf Simulator: Step-by-Step Guide

It’s super easy to work with the R-Motion, but most cases where it gives wrong data are traced to improper installation in the first place. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get started:

Step 1: Unboxing and Initial Setup

Unbox the R-Motion Golf Simulator package and identify the sensor, the clip, the charging cable, and the manual. Then, Charge the sensor using the provided charging cable. It has to be a fully charged sensor before using it. 

Step 2: Installing the App

Now, you must install the compatible app on your device (smartphone, tablet, or computer). You can find the app on app stores or the R-Motion website. Download and install the app that corresponds to your device’s operating system.

Step 3: Mounting the Sensor

Attach the clip to your golf club (preferably the club you’ll be hitting the most shots with).

Slide the R-Motion sensor into the clip securely. Ensure it’s positioned so that the camera faces you as you hold the club, as this will determine the accuracy of your shots.

Step 4: Connecting the Sensor

Turn on your R-Motion sensor by pressing the power button. Open the installed app on your device and use the app’s instructions to establish a Bluetooth connection between the sensor and your device.

Step 5: Calibrating the System

Follow the app’s on-screen instructions to calibrate the sensor. You’ll need to set up a few parameters like club selection, lengths, and ball position. 

Step 6: Starting a Session

Once calibrated, you’re ready to start a golf session. Choose a golf course or range to play on using the app. The app will display available options. Select the club you’ll use from the app’s menu for the shot.

Step 7: Taking Shots

Position the ball on a hitting mat and address the ball as you would on an actual golf course. Make your swing, aiming to hit the ball cleanly and squarely.

The sensor will track your swing and ball data, and the app will display the shot’s outcome, including distance and direction.

After each shot, the app will provide data about your image, including distance, ball speed, launch angle, and more. You can use shot analysis to identify areas for improvement in your swing and gameplay. 

I particularly love how GolfAllYear demonstrated the setup process in the video below.

Pros And Cons

The R-Motion is a discontinued product, so there’s no support for it. However, if you’re lucky enough to get this on the market, here are a few pros and cons that I noticed while testing this simulator and swing analyzer that you should keep in mind: 

What I like about the R-motion Golf simulator

• Good graphics
• Easy-to-use lightweight sensor clips
• Gaming features such as 15 courses, a driving range, and a multiplayer option
• Easy to put together
• It’s not expensive. It has an auto rewind feature to monitor your ball flight closely.
• Compatible with any golf club, including your own

What I like about the R-motion Golf simulator

• There have been growing reviews on how connecting to the dongle is challenging.
• It doesn’t come with a hitting mat and impact net 
• Inconsistent in reading short chips
• No official product support
• It doesn’t work with the Mac operating system

The Price

You won’t find the R-Motion kit listed or available on the official Rapsodo website because it’s discontinued.  I have linked to it on Amazon a number of times here, but it’s hit and miss if it’s in stock.

However, the golf simulator retails for around $300 through Amazon, Walmart, and other online shopping platforms. You could even get a more affordable deal at Ebay. 

However, the standard purchase comes with the sensor, four club attachments, and a “Lite” version of The Golf Club game with fifteen courses and a driving range.  

You’ll spend an extra $90 to purchase ten more attachments, which you can use on your other golf clubs. 

Wrapping up

With a single golf simulator kit, you can obtain club data, including club path, swing speed, and club face angle, and b, all data such as shot distance, side spin, back spin, ball speed, and launch angle. It’s a bang for a buck. 

However, based on the entertainment factor, ease of use, and ability to improve the user’s game, I will choose a better alternative, like the eOptishot 2, over the R-Motion. 

Indeed, Raposodo R Motion will give you robust shot data, but it reads inaccurately sometimes, and it’s a discontinued product. 

If you must buy a Rapsodo compact and budget-friendly simulator, I recommend the brand’s latest Mobile LaunchMonitor instead, which uses more effective radar technology. 

The Cube golf cart is super compact and sticks out from many other push trolleys I’ve tried regarding maneuverability. However, the negative reviews about its flimsy handle appear to be valid. I walk a lot, and the course isn’t too hilly. But after a couple of months, the handle won’t stay locked. The Cube golf cart design is cheap but not ideal for long-term intensive use. 

After coming across the 9-hole study by Dr. Neil Wolkodoff of the Colorado Center of Health and Sports Science, I became more interested in push trolleys than two-seater golf carts after learning that players who used a push cart burned 718 calories during their game. 

The redesigned Cube trolley has been Motocaddy’s best-selling push trolley for the last couple of years, especially given that it’s 40% smaller than typical push trolleys while still retaining a lot of functionality.

I have been using the Cube Cart 3 model cart for about five weeks now, and the most lovable thing about this product has to be how it collapses into a relatively small compact unit. The wheels are easy to put on and take off, and it is lightweight. 

Suppose you’re planning to purchase the Cube Cart 3. In that case, this article will interest you because I have explained in detail, in the rest of this article, my experience using the Cube Cart 3, its vital specifications, benefits, and areas where this cart could have been better. 

Cube Cart 3 Specifications

Below are the key specifications of the Cube Cart 3: 

Weight	14.5 lbs
Compact folded size	21″ x 13″ x 17″
Folding system	Two-step folding system
Handle mechanism	Three height-adjustable positions
Tires	Friction-free oversized wheels with maintenance-free rubber tires
Material	Rubber
Color options	Charcoal + (Blue, Black, Red, Lime, White)
Price	$149.97

Key Features 

First of all, the back wheel base of this cart isn’t broad enough, and the coach is very lightweight. So it’s best used on flat golf courses. 

If you are playing a hilly course, it is tough to balance walking on the side of a hill where one back wheel is lower than the other. But away from that, here are the key features of this push trolley that make it stand out.

Easy Set-Up and Fold-Down

CUBE boldly claims its push cart is the world’s fastest 2-step folded golf cart. Setting it up or breaking it down is seamless when you pull the cart from your car trunk or are ready to put it back into the trunk for transport. 

To assemble the cart, you only have to:

• Pull the locking lever upwards
• This will release the folding lock
• Use the locking lever to pull the frame upwards until fully extended.

Breaking down the unit also has a straightforward process: 

• Release the locking lever 
• Lower the handle
• Push the upper bag support down towards the front wheel
• Resecure the locking lever.

Compact Size 

The compact size of the Cube Cart 3 is perhaps the most impressive feature of this push cart, especially when it’s folded down. 

The last thing I want when using a push cart is less portability, especially when I don’t have a big trunk. 

I like that the folded-down CUBE Push Cart fits into it with ease. 

Spaces and Accessories

Being a simple construction, it’s pretty impressive that the manufacturers could still integrate standard storage spaces for a scorecard and a drink. There’s also an accessory compartment for keys, wallet, rangefinder, and what have you.

The blessing of this cart, as far as storage spaces go, is that I no longer need to dig through my bag to locate things like golf balls since I can toss them into the compartment.

The Performance

The first noticeable feature of the Cube golf cart that hints at its performance is the easy-run, friction-free, oversized wheels. The rubber tires are also maintenance-free. 

Cube also uses a smarter-designed braking system that takes effect when you step on the small peddle. I prefer this system to struggle with push carts with the hand-operated brake system. 

I have made many reservations about the quality of this push cart’s handle. Still, the silver lining is its adjustable height control, offering three different setting options. 

Sometimes, the front wheel pulls to one side. When this happens, How do you adjust the front wheel on a Motocaddy Cube?

You can adjust the alignment by the tiny screws on each side of the front wheel. So if your cart is veering right, turn the left screw counterclockwise and the right screw clockwise (and vice versa)

Cube Golf Cart Pros And Cons

Cube Golf Cart gets a lot of love because it’s lightweight, folds up nice and small, and fits into even a tiny car trunk. So, in terms of compatibility, it’s a perfect product. However, after testing this cart for about five weeks, I was able to identify the following pros and cons of this push cart:

What I like about the Cube golf cart

• The wheels are wide and lightweight, so it’s seamless moving in the morning dew of the fairway or the long, rough.
• The back rack has notches that are spaced perfectly for stand bag
• The spacing of the handle is comfortable
• The handle is adjustable in 3 modes, an essential aspect for a golfer like me who is 6-2.”
• It’s a reasonably priced golf cart to keep your clubs rolling.

What I don’t like about the Cube Golf cart

• It is not compatible with every golf bag type, especially ones that have kickstands with full-hinged systems, because the legs extend as the cart rolls along.
• The cup holders will only accommodate narrow bottles (read: 20oz soda cans) and won’t sit in modern wine bottles. 
• It is not the most durable option in the market, especially compared to Sun Mountain Golf Speed Cart V1R.
• My iPhone “plus” doesn’t fit with the enclosed tray. This may be nitpicking, but it’s essential to know that not all phone types will fit into this compartment. 

My Final Take

After combing through dozens of reviews on this push golf cart, I noticed that many people consider it for its portability. 

The Cube golf cart has a small footprint when folded, is relatively easy to open and close, and is lightweight for lifting into and out of the car trunk. The brake works efficiently, too, and it locks nicely. Now for the bad: The manual says the front wheel is adjustable for alignment. 

Unfortunately, the product is somewhat flimsy due to its lightweight nature and will likely be unstable on hilly terrain. No matter how carefully I maneuvered the cart up or down hills, it always seemed to tip and once nearly tipped over. 

The umbrella holder also has a flimsy feel. While it holds an umbrella securely, the holder and the upper structure are made from plastic, so the umbrella sways fore and aft as you walk. 

Overall, I’ll call this a decent golf cart if you like to walk a lot. Some flaws may be nitpicky, but this is not a valid option if you want something extremely sturdy. 

Let me know what you think about this Cube golf cart in the comments.

Ellewee golf cart storms the market uniquely. It answers the prayer of golfers and course managers looking for a compact, fast, eco-friendly, affordable cart to move around the fairway.

I particularly enjoy the engine brake for safe downhill riding and the gyroscope that saves the cart from tipping over. Selling for only $6,500, the Ellewee golf cart takes time to charge and doesn’t have a canopy or windshield to save you from sun, rain, and dust. So brace up!

It’s super interesting to see how technology in the golf industry has spread its tentacles from clubs and balls into on-course mobility. It gets more interesting when we consider models like the four-wheel single-rider vehicle produced by Ellewee.

According to the manufacturer, their golf carts, produced in two main lineups – Easy and X models – and powered by a lithium battery, hold a charge for up to four rounds a day or about 65 kilometers. 

I decided to purchase the Ellewee Easy Golf cart buggy listed on PowerHouse. The initial goal was to test the machine, see how it lives up to the hype, and give an honest review. But gladly, at the moment, it has become the present replacement for my Axis NV ACE. 

In the rest of this article, I will walk you through all you need to know about Ellewee carts for golf courses. The information you gain from this article should help you decide if this model is worth your investment. 

Ellewee Easy Golf Cart Buggy Specification

Below are the specific and technical details of the Ellewee Easy Golf cart model I currently use:

Ellewee Golf Cart Key Features

What makes the Ellewee carts stand out from the crowd (which is already saturated by the Big 3 – Yamaha, Club Car, and EZ-GO) is that it’s a single rider that has been tested to take roughly 25% less time than when using ordinary two-seater and four-seater golf carts. 

However, after using the Ellewee Easy for a few months, which shares a lot of similarity with the Ellewee X model, I could identify other unique features of this golf cart that underscores what the manufacturer claims on the website. For example: 

• The tires cause less damage to the turf because they run at just 3.2 PSI, almost half of the typical golf cart PSI of 5.7.
• Ellewee offers gyro control, GPS, lane assist, and auto-breaking because it is powered by an electrified power-train control system developed by Cabeco, a world-renowned automotive manufacturer. 
• It is the first green, affordable, multi-purpose vehicle.

The Appearance

The Ellewee Easy and X golf cart models look a lot alike. But there’s a noticeable difference in utility, especially haulage. Easy Golf Cart lets you carry your golf bag at the front, while the X model puts the cargo holder at the rear. 

Available in only super matt black, dental white, and deep blue metallic, Ellewee golf carts are designed with ATV in mind but move like a scooter. 

The Performance

Ellewee golf carts need 4 AGM 12-volt batteries to run, and it has a simple charging system. However, telling when the battery will go out is always unpredictable. This applies to all electric golf carts. 

On the performance side, the single-seater cart lessens its speed whenever the charge goes down. It has a charging time of 8 hours, which is a relatively slow charge compared to most other electric golf carts. Let’s not talk about when the batteries get older and perform less in holding heads. 

This scooter-like golf cart may only be your best option if you can commit to a particular charging routine. 

The Speed

The first bold claim that the Ellewee brand slams to our face is that the single riders make your rounds 25% faster than two-seaters. 

After testing the Easy Buggy model, I am happy to see that this lives up to the hype. What is even more interesting is the comfortable feel during this fast ride. 

I like the large and lightweight wheels. It takes 50% less air pressure than my Axis NV ACE cart. Even though the low air pressure will eventually make the tires wear down quickly, I can enjoy a smooth and comfortable ride. 

The price

Ellewe golf carts sell for different prices depending on the dealer you shop from. However, the price for the two significant lines is between $4,950 and $7,500, depending on the year model. 

Generally, Ellwee X comes at around $6.500. At the same time, Ellwee Easy Resort costs nearly $8,000.

This is a pretty affordable option for a golf cart, especially if you’re not looking for a group travel around the golf course and only need a single-seater transport vessel. 

The Pros and Cons

I always say there’s no perfect golf cart out there. I almost challenged this idea when I tested the Yamaha Drive-2 EFI QuieTech. But for the Ellewee tech, there are some areas I believe the manufacturer can improve upon, even though it’s an excellent cart. 

What I like about this golf cart

• It has a stylish appearance that makes heads turn 
• The gyroscope saves the cart from tipping over.
• It moves you faster than ordinary two-seater golf carts
• You have peace of mind regarding turf damage risk
• It’s an eco-friendly cart 
• Geo-fencing keeps you away from off-limit areas.

What I don’t like about this golf cart 

• No weather protection. Since it’s a scooter-like golf cart, it has no canopy or windshield for sun, rain, and dust. 
• The charging time can be shorter.

My Final Take

Most golf cart manufacturers focus on creating a sweet mix of incredible looks and excellent performance. That’s what sells in the cart industry. And in my opinion, and based on my experience driving the Ellewee Easy cart, this brand has done a pretty good job in that objective. 

Being a one-person golf cart, you no longer need to get on a crowded golf cart or pay the cart rental fee. This is a central, unique point of this cart. But at the same time, it’s an egg and omelet situation because the coach doesn’t provide a canopy that saves you from the sun or rain.

But as long as it carries all my golf clubs and all other needed golf accessories and takes me faster, I think it’s a bang for the buck. 

Still, it’s somehow difficult to see the real value in this cart when you rent it because you won’t get as much rental fee as a gas golf cart or a 4-seater electric golf cart.

It all comes down to your preference.

Lowes is a popular home improvement store with a golf cart section. The top options are the Massimo Electric GMF2X, Kandi 2-seat, Axis NV ACE, and the Coleman Black Electric Golf Cart, a famous offer. 

Five months ago, I got the Coleman Black Electric Golf Cart, and then two weeks later, my father-in-law gifted me the Yamaha Drive-2 EFI QuieTech. I’ve always been a fan of Yamaha, but Coleman from Lowe’s seems affordable for many. 

I have written this article to review the Lowe’s golf carts, but I will pay more attention to my experience with the Coleman while comparing it with other Lowe’s golf cart offers.

My Lowe’s Coleman Kandi Cart Golf Cart Review 

Coleman is under the Craftsman label, but Kandi is the company that makes it. After driving this cart for a few months, I’ve identified some areas I genuinely love about the coach and some areas that could have been changed or improved. 

If you’re also considering a golf cart from Lowes, the Coleman may pique your interest, and I will show you the areas to consider before throwing your money into this unit. 

The key features

1. Turn signals are installed close to the steering wheel and horn.

2. Front and rear seatbelts. Also, grab handles for the rear passengers 

3. It has an extra two at the rear that doubles as a rear bed to give it a pickup-like appearance for added storage if you don’t have four passengers. 

4. Extended top roof, which is unique because many golf carts have a top that covers only up to half the length of the Coleman EV cart roof. So, the extension shades the extra two passengers at the back.

5. Armrest for rear passengers with integrated cupholders and slots for cellphones or other valuables

6. Fold down the windscreen

7. There’s a storage underneath the rear seat.

The Appearance

The Lowe’s Coleman golf cart is elegant and stylish. I particularly love the diamond-style stitching of the seats. It has excellent craftsmanship. However, the quality of the frame can be better, especially when I compare it with my new Yamaha Drive-2 EFI QuieTech. Some of the components of this golf cart look cheap, but it does the job pretty decently. 

The front seat has a full LED display, storage on either side, cup holders, and a fold-down windscreen. The cart is available in a matte black finish or silver, the only two color options from Lowe’s. 

The Performance

Equipped with a 48-volt AC motor, this model provides smooth acceleration and can reach a top speed of 25 mph. It has a full suspension, front disc brakes, rear drums, and great coil-over shocks, and the cart comes already lifted from the factory. The cart also has sealed batteries and onboard chargers; you only need a cord. 

However, one thing I don’t like about this Lowe’s cart is that it has no regenerative breaking, making it unfriendly. It has a quarter inch on the brake pads, and if you’re pounding on the brakes going down a grade, they will wear out extremely quickly. 

Speed

The Coleman golf cart has a top speed of 20 mph, but it has a 5,000-watt motor, the same size as other Lowe’s carts that are 25+ mph. Coleman Powersports states this model is 20 mph and 40 miles on full charge.

Customer Support and Warranty 

The Coleman golf cart from Lowe’s comes with Coleman’s back warranty for two years. They’ve also got over 800 nationwide stores, and people talk about their excellent customer support. 

However, the challenge with these Chinese products is that finding replacement parts may take time and effort. 

The Downsides of This Cart

There’s no perfect cart out there, but the Coleman Cart showed me a lot of red flags. If you’re planning to cop this Lowe’s golf cart, keep the following downsides in mind: 

• The cup holders are small. There are only three small ones across the front and one that would fit a smaller koozie, but that’s all about it. Nowadays, people have larger containers and Yeti’s that may need to fit into the size of the cupholders.
• Also, the storage compartment below this Coleman cart’s steering wheel needs to be bigger. I could barely fit a baseball cap into the space, which makes it less utilizable. 
• When you fold down the rear seat, you are supposed to find a cooler in the compartment underneath the bed. However, the Coleman doesn’t come with a more astonishing insert, and you’ll have to purchase it separately for about $100, which is silly. 
• This is nitpicking, but not everyone likes the ridiculously loud backup speaker. You can enter through the driver’s front wheel, where you find two smaller round speakers for parking breaks and backup sound. So, you disconnect it to discontinue the sound. 

Final verdict: Should You Buy A Lowe’s Golf Cart?

After testing the Coleman from Lowe’s, I’m sad to conclude that despite being a good-looking unit, I won’t hastily recommend it to any interested person, even though they are on a budget. The features are decent, and the cart moves you from point A to B around the golf course with no issues, but I’ll pass on the Coleman and keep my Yamaha or even go with another Lowe’s golf cart like the Axis NV ACE. 

I’ve been testing golf carts for a while now, and It’s fair to conclude that on the top of the scale, especially in terms of proven name and solid products, Club Car takes the number one position ahead of EZgo and Yamaha. 

If you must step down from this trifecta, consider newer manufacturers like Icon, Advanced EV, and Evolution, who are already doing a great job competing with the Big 3 (Club Car, Yamaha, and Ezgo). Still, they may be here ten years from now. This is a significant concern when you are considering other component replacements. But their affordability makes them worth considering.

Based on my conversations with people and comments on Facebook groups, the bottom of the scale has to be buying a golf cart from a big box store. I have no hard feelings about Lowe’s golf carts, but I’ve read about people being completely helpless when they had an issue with their cart because the store wouldn’t fix the problem and the local dealers couldn’t get parts, or they didn’t want to touch a coach from a big box store.

So Lowe’s may exclusively have some golf carts, but there are more downsides to consider than the good sides. 

I hope you found this article helpful. 

The HIsun Plus golf cart is a good-looking vehicle that also comes at a pretty affordable price compared to many alternatives in the market currently. It doesn’t have the best speed capacity and is not ideal for rugged terrain, but it does a decent job of moving around the fairways and taking on four passengers. 

Hisun has been in the cart manufacturing industry for years, and they have a series of electric golf carts that have won the hearts of many. If you’re interested in the Hisun Pulse model, there are some things you need to know before going ahead with the purchase. 

The current talk of the town, as far as golf carts from Hisun go, is the ACE NV unit, but some people still have interest in the Pulse unit. In the rest of this article, you will learn the specifications, key features, pros, and cons of the Hisun Puls Golf cart. This should help you decide if it’s worth your investment or not.

The Appearance

The model has a hard top and a two-piece windshield, but it doesn’t fold down into slots with rubber clamps, as seen in the ACE NV. It has Mirrors on each side for rear visibility.

There are turning signals installed into the bumper. The model also has a front headlight. What’s nice about the headlight is that it’s low and doesn’t light up the neighbor’s houses but still gives you a grand vision of where you’re driving. 

The cart has 18 x 8.50-8 turf tires designed for roads and grass, but it won’t tear up your lawn like an actual UTV would. The Hisun Pulse comes in red and has a 4-inch ground clearance. 

The Dashboard

There’s a lot of storage on the dashboard, including two cup holders for both sides and two tabs with dual USB slots where you can charge phones and other accessories. It has a crucial place and digital screen behind it where you can see your speed and miles range. Above the dashboard, there’s a lovely extensive mirror with multiple layers, which is also adjustable. 

Meanwhile, the Hisun Pulse will run approximately 42 miles on flat ground, which most golf carts don’t do with a 48-volt system. 

Comfortability

Regarding comfortability for any golf cart, the seating is the first place to look at. The cushion of the Hisun Plus Golf cart has high-quality multiple-layered foam and additional stitching details to give you that comfort that you need on your back and bottom. 

The legroom space for the front passengers is also ample. However, more could be done for the rear passenger seat. 

 Operation 

The brake features a system self-adjusting mechanical rear drum and electric suspension. For the steering, it has a two-way pinion and rack system with an automatic clearance compensation function. 

You can find the control direction at the bottom of the seat. Once you turn the key on, you can pick between forward or reverse. The HIsun Pulse is an elementary and easy-to-use unit. 

What To Consider Before Picking An Electric Golf Cart

When buying an electric golf cart, several key features must be considered to ensure you make the right choice for your needs. While you have a model from Hisun in mind, you can compare its value alongside other alternatives with these factors in mind:

1. Battery life and range: 

The battery is a crucial component of an electric golf cart. Look for carts with good battery life and a sufficient range to cover your intended usage without frequent recharging. The Hisun Pulse golf cart is 4 x 48V/120Z and uses a VRLA Charger – Intelligent DC 48V/25A. You can consider other powerful alternatives if this doesn’t suit your intense daily usage. 

2. Charging time:

Most Hisun golf cart models take 10 hours to charge, which applies to their famous ACE NV neighborhood cart. Consider how long it takes to charge the cart’s battery fully. Faster charging can be convenient, mainly if you have limited downtime between rounds.

3. Seating capacity: 

Golf carts have various seating capacities, typically ranging from 2 to 6 seats. The Hisun Pulse only accommodates four passengers. Does this suit the number of passengers you’ll be carrying regularly? If there are more, then alternative models like the Axis. Also, check for features that enhance passenger comfort, such as comfortable seats, ample legroom, and convenient storage options.

4. Terrain and performance: 

Consider the terrain you’ll use the golf cart on. Some coaches, like the Hisun Pulse, are designed for smooth fairways, while others have better off-road capabilities. 

5. Warranty and Support: 

Research the manufacturer’s warranty and after-sales support. A good warranty can provide peace of mind in case of any issues.

6. Budget: 

You want to set a budget and look for options within your financial range. Remember that more features and higher quality may come with a higher price tag. But you can always find a decent brand-new golf cart for around $10,000 to $20,000.

Finally… 

Overall, the Hisun Pulse is a decent electric golf cart. I like the appearance and the reasonable performance. 

However, this cart is only for some. It may work well for moving around your property, but there are better options if you want a heavy-duty, value-packed vehicle. 

Before making a final decision, I’ll advise you to visit local dealerships, test-drive the models you’re interested in, and gather as much information as possible about the features, warranties, and pricing.

Feel free to seek ideas from friends or fellow golfers to gain valuable insights into your preferred unit’s performance and satisfaction.

The Axis EV golf cart (Ace NV) will accommodate four passengers. It runs on a 48-volt electric motor with a charger included and gets a full charge in 10 hours with a 43-mile range. It features four built-in USB ports, a rear flip cargo seat, and a 2-year warranty. It’s an affordable cart for neighborhood and golf course driving, selling for $8,999 on the Hisun website but exclusively available at Lowe’s.

Golf carts keep improving each year as the electric vehicle revolution sets in. Consequentially, manufacturers are pushing industrial design, and Axis is one of these guys.

If you are just beginning your search for new (or used) golf carts for sale, you might have come across the Axis Ace NV, among other popular options like Club Car and EzGo. In this review, I’ll take you through a thorough review of the Axis EV golf cart and what you should expect when you purchase this cart.

The distinctive details about this cart are the 43-mile driving range, 10-hour charge time, automatic CVR clutch, and foldable rear cargo bed.

Axis Golf Cart Availability

The Axis EV golf cart is also marketed as a neighborhood car. It is exclusively available at Lowe’s Hardware, the second-largest hardware chain in the United States after Home Depot.

Hisun makes the cart, and they have a large assembly plant in McKinney, Texas; their services are available at several dealers if you need them.

Axis golf cart features

1. The tires of this golf cart are 12 inches with a 3-inch lift, which is excellent. The tires are also built for off-road adventures, which makes them ideal for driving through golf courses.

2. Turn signals are installed close to the steering wheel and horn.

3. high-beam and low-beam headlights.

4. A full windshield that separates—one folds up into the roof, and the other folds down.

5. It has an extra two at the rear that double as a rear bed, giving it a pickup-like appearance for added storage if you don’t have four passengers. According to Axis, this bed can hold up to 400 pounds.

6. There’s storage underneath the rear seat.

7. The extended roof is unique because many golf carts have a top that covers only up to half the length of the Axsis EV roof. So, the extension shades the extra two passengers at the back.

8. It has a horizontally placed mirror at the top of the roof, which gives the driver plenty of rear visibility.

9. One large mirror on each side is also adjustable.

10. There are four USB charging ports in total—two inside each compartment on the dashboard.

11. Two large cup holders are also placed on the front passenger side of the dashboard.

The Appearance

The Axis golf cart is a decent-looking vehicle. There is nothing particularly grand about the unit’s appearance, but I love the extensive shade and rugged-looking tires. It’s also compact and value-packed.

Meanwhile, it’s only available in coastal blue and black colors, which limits options for interested buyers online and for most other brands that offer customization.

The Batteries

Four AGM batteries power the Axis EV golf cart. These batteries are heavy but not as severe as six lead-acid batteries or flooded batteries. This is the part where I envy models like the Evolusion Classic 4 Plus.

Nevertheless, the batteries on the Axis golf cart are sealed and maintenance-free. The brand doesn’t have a lithium battery option yet.

I also like the charger because it automatically shuts off when the battery is full. If you’re taking a long trip, you can take advantage of this and leave the cart plugged in. Meanwhile, the cable charger is 10 inches long.

Speed and performance

In my experience, the Axis golf cart goes between 22 and 24 miles per hour at top speed. This contradicts the specification listed on Lowe’s hardware page, which is 15 miles per hour.

The ground clearance is also decent because it gives you easy access in and out of the car, especially for a person like me, who is six feet and two inches tall.

The Price 

The Axis golf cart costs $8,499 on the manufacturer’s official website. However, this is simply the manufacturer’s suggested retail price.

Depending on where and how you eventually get yours, destination charges, taxes, license fees, or dealer preparation can apply.

For instance, I got my Coastal Blue Axis golf cart for $9,200. I live in Brackettville, Texas. This is a decent price for a brand-new golf cart that doubles as an electric neighborhood vehicle.

Is it worth the buy?

If you’re looking for an electric neighborhood vehicle or golf cart, the Axis golf cart is worth considering. However, there’s nothing grand about this unit.

It is good-looking and does the job of a Trike or even Yamaha, and the price point is also reasonable. The customer support is also decent; you will find this running at many dealerships. So, overall, it’s a great cart to buy if you’re looking for something average that can stand the test of time.

Let me know what you think about this golf cart in the comments.

The EVolution golf cart may have more “features” than many popular models. It’s also affordable, but it doesn’t have the best reputation for durability. It can be a great-performing cart, but be ready to deal with parts unavailability and not-so-great aftermarket support. After researching and testing the EVolution, I recommend someone interested in an electric golf cart stick with one of the “big three: Club Car, EZGO, or Yamaha.

Despite being in the golf industry for more than ten years, the EVolution company may not have as good a reputation as many of its rivals. However, the premium cart manufacturer claims to be producing the  ‘quickest and most capable golf carts in electric vehicle history.’ The unique selling point of their models is that they are fully electric and have great looks.

I’m three weeks into ownership of one of these, the Classic 4 Plus. It has the larger motor and battery of their two options (lithium batteries). In all fairness, I like it so far. However, some areas make me bat my eyebrows.

In this article, I have reviewed all you need to know about EVolution golf carts, including their other models. We will also take a bird’s-eye view of what other users say about this cart to help you decide if the brand is worth your consideration.

EVolution Golf Cart Models

EVolution has a long list of models for personal golf cart vehicles. While we cannot focus on all models in a singular article, I will focus on the model I’ve worked with and touch on the researched information from other users who have tried different models. Here is a list of models available from EVolution:

Cart Series	Unique features
Classic series	It is the best value pick and has good looks.
Carrier series	Six to eight seats. Basically, to demand transportation
Turfman series	For rugged and heavy-duty usage
Forrester series	For rough terrain

The Car App Connection

Some models of the EVolution cart feature car app connections, so you can download the company’s mobile app and connect it to your golf cart from your phone. It means that you can access charging and other controls from your phone.

The premium features

The Evolution Cart is a premium miniature vehicle. It features top qualities such as a luxury steering wheel, two-tone seats, Bluetooth speakers, color-matched inserts on the wheel, and a touchscreen. The company also offers custom color options and seating arrangement options built to match.

The Touchscreens

The touchscreens on the dashboard of some of the EVolution carts are impressive, especially as seen in the Carrier Plus models.

These touchscreens are 9 inches long and give you access to activated radio, music, movies, a speedometer, or even a backup camera.

The lithium power system

The EVolution cart uses lithium batteries. They are expensive upfront but last a long time and are incredibly easy to care for. So, one of the best parts of owning this cart is that you no longer have to set reminders to fill your batteries with water. They are also easy to clean.

The lithium batteries make the golf cart lighter in weight than other options. This is reflected in its improved speed.

My Classic 4 Plus tops out at 30 mph and gets there quickly. I had tested the lithium EZGO and a Yamaha before buying this one three weeks ago, and it would leave both of them behind.

The ride and handling are also lovely. It feels more stable than the lifted EZGO I drove during testing.

How long does an EVolution golf cart battery last?

According to EVolution, their golf cart batteries typically last 4–10 years. In other words, you can expect the lithium-ion battery to work optimally for between 2,000 and 5,000 charging cycles.

The Warranty

Another exciting aspect of purchasing an EVolution golf cart is the warranty. The company offers a 2-year warranty for parts and labor, which is good compared to most other brands. A 4-year warranty is placed on the charger and controller of the cart, no matter the model.

As for the lithium battery, it comes with a five-year warranty. The frame is the only component with a lifetime warranty on the EVolution cart.

The customer service

One thing about customer service is that you can’t know how helpful they are until you’ve used the product for a while and have developed issues that require you to make contact.

With just three weeks into ownership, I don’t have first-hand experience with how helpful the EVolution cart’s customer service or help is. Still, my findings revealed that local West and East Coast dealers provide support.

However, many users are not hesitant to come out and say how poor the customer service for this brand is compared to other top brands.

The Cost 

Depending on the series, model, and year of manufacture, EVolution golf carts range from $10,000 to closer to $20,000. Many buyers work with local dealers to see what deals they can get within this price range.

The process is similar to acquiring an average car. I had to work with my dealership to get the Classic Four Plus. But the pricing of this particular brand is no different from other rivals like EZ Go, but it’s a bit pricier than Club Car.

Pros and cons

Evolution may come packed with features, but it has highs and lows. If you’re looking to buy from this brand, keep the following pros and cons in mind:

PROS	CONS
Options for different uses (golf course, work, rugged terrain)	Older cart models have been reported to develop motor problems.
Made with premium features	Potential battery issues over time
The speed is impressive (you can go from 0 to 25 mph in 5 seconds).	Solenoid can break
Slick looking	You can’t adjust the side mirrors vertically.
You can drive it on the streets.

Is it worth buying?

In terms of performance, the EVolution golf cart is a beautiful option. However, the verdict changes when we throw service and parts availability into the discussion. People who have not used the coach for more than two years may have different views because of the warranty.

But after my in-depth conversation with a dealer who has tried to partner with the ‘value brand,’ it’s apparent that it doesn’t work out because they have little to no access to replacement parts, a proper service manual, and a wiring diagram.

There’s no doubt that the features of EVolution golf carts are fantastic. The overall performance is excellent, but more and more users are saying the support on the back end is just as bad.

So far, with my Classic 4 Plus, I’ve not experienced brakes squeaking or rubber tires rooting out, even though I’ve read that this is a common issue with the EVolution carts. Perhaps it’s because I’m only three weeks into its usage.

If you are okay with paying above $10,000 for short-term usage of your cart or waiting for replacement parts and finding nobody willing to work on them, then there’s no issue.

However, suppose you’re intent on long-lasting durability and access to replacement parts in case of any defects or upgrade needs. In that case, I recommend you get a Yamaha, such as the QuieTech EFI and PowerTech AC models I’ve used.

My Final Take: Time Will Tell

In all fairness, I’m only three weeks into owning the EVolution Classic 4 Plus golf cart. So, it will be a long shot to come to a verdict. Performance-wise, I like the coach. The aesthetic is also impressive. The fit and finish are good. And it applies to other models.

Generally, the cart is lovable. Aside from the low-quality factory speakers I replaced with this $50 pair from Amazon, it now sounds ten times better.

However, with advanced research and combing through reviews and testimonies from other users who have owned the cart for three years, I discovered this is not the best EV cart out there.
