The EZ GO Golf Carts are All Electric

Friday, March 27th, 2009

The EZ GO Golf Cart has been supplying this country with non-polluting electric golf carts since 1954. The main purpose of this cart’s development was to enhance the golfing experience. The first carts were developed a one-room machine shop in Grovetown Georgia. The design was added by drawings of the technology used to provide power to the flaps of the U.S. Army’s B-17 aircraft.

In 1961 this small company became part of the multi-industrial company Textron. Textron was a multi million-dollar global company that had the resources to help the EZ-GO with the necessary resources to expand its operations.

Now over 60 years later this global world-class company is still delivering high quality non-polluting carts for golf and more. The E-Z Go-carts are used at Universal Orlando, the Hilton as well as other theme parks and stadiums. With over 24 models to choose from there is a model for your needs.

The frames of these vehicles are made from welded steel or of welded tubular design. The bodies are made of injected molded acrylonitrile styrene acrylate, thermoplastic elastomer, injected molded geloy, fiberglass or steel. Either a 36-volt or 48-volt power sources is used for the electric versions power supplies with 2.5hp motor for the main drive.  Seating accommodations are for 2 passengers to 8 depending on the model purchased. Payloads of up to 1000 lbs can be safely transported with the Industrial 1000 cart.

The manufacturing of these non-polluting carts are certified ISO9001: 2000 and ISO 140001:2004. Parts and service are available at your local dealers, which are located through out the nation.
