Gas vs. Electric Golf Carts

When it come to buying a golf cart (also called a golf car), you have a wealth of choices available to you. Your primary decision, however, will be between buying a gas golf cart or an electric golf cart. Each type has its pros and cons, so it’s good to know what to expect. We’ve broken down the differences so you can select the right golf cart for your needs.

Gas Golf Carts

A gas-powered golf cart will be powerful and convenient, although they tend to cost more money and require more maintenance. The nice thing about gas golf cars is that you only have to fill up the fuel tank to be ready to go. One caveat is that gas golf carts are louder and produce more emissions, and there may be noise or pollution rules you have to worry about.

Electric Golf Carts

An electric golf cart runs on a battery, so it’s easy to recharge by plugging it into a standard plug in your garage. However, you’ll need to remind yourself to make sure your golf cart is charged up well before you intend to use it, as this process takes several hours. Electric golf carts produce zero emissions, so they’re the more eco-friendly choice, and they also tend to run quietly.
