Gas golf carts excel in long-distance travel, rough terrain navigation, and heavy-duty use due to their higher torque and extended range. However, they are noisier, require more upkeep, and produce emissions. Electric golf carts, on the other hand, operate quietly, produce no emissions, and have lower maintenance costs, making them ideal for residential areas and golf courses. Their drawbacks include shorter range and longer recharge times. Your selection should be based on whether you prioritize power and endurance (gas) or quiet, economical convenience (electric).What kind of gas should I put in my golf cart?
Regular unleaded gasoline is suitable for gas golf carts. However, to minimize the accumulation of residue, ethanol-free gasoline is recommended. For professional advice and service, we encourage you to contact River City and schedule an appointment.How long should a golf cart last on a full charge?
Golf carts equipped with deep cycle batteries typically require eight to 10 hours for a complete charge. This charging process is usually done overnight to ensure the cart is ready for use the following day. For specific information about your golf cart's charging needs, we recommend contacting River City to arrange a consultation.Should I purchase a gas or electric golf cart?
The choice between a gas or electric golf cart depends on your specific needs. Gas carts are more suitable for long distances, challenging terrain, or heavy-duty use due to their power output and quick refueling capabilities. Electric carts are preferable for use in residential areas, golf courses, or short trips where charging is readily available, offering quieter operation, zero emissions, and lower maintenance costs. Your decision should be based on the intended use, including the distance and terrain you plan to cover.How do I maintain my golf cart?
Annual maintenance is recommended to ensure optimal performance of your golf cart. We advise scheduling a service appointment with River City for professional maintenance and care.How much will a golf cart cost?
