Advanced EV golf carts

Advanced EV golf carts at Terrain

Two Advanced EV Advent carts, both electric with Trojan lead-acid batteries: the two-seat Advent 2 at $8,299 and the four-seat Advent 4 at $9,399. They share the same drivetrain figures, so the choice is seats.

Models and prices

• Advanced EV Advent 2 — 2 passengers, six Trojan T875 8V lead-acid batteries, 25–35 miles per charge, 25 mph, 6–8 hour charge on a standard 110V outlet, $8,299
• Advanced EV Advent 4 — 4 passengers, six Trojan T875 8V lead-acid batteries, 25–35 miles per charge, 25 mph, 6–8 hour charge on a standard 110V outlet, $9,399

Which Advanced EV to choose

Both carts are 25 mph and both run lead-acid rather than lithium, which is why they cost less than the lithium four-seaters in our line at the same speed. Expect the lower end of the 25–35 mile range with four people aboard, and budget for the 6–8 hour overnight charge. The $1,100 between them buys the second row.

What we tell you before you order

Freight is a flat $250 to any address we ship to, shown in the total before you pay; delivery is 7 to 10 business days by lift-gate freight. Returns are accepted within 30 days on an unregistered, undamaged cart; return freight is the customer’s responsibility and there is no restocking fee. Range and charge-time figures are Advanced EV’s; lead-acid range falls faster than lithium as the pack ages.
