It’s very robust and has a 360KG payload whilst the batteries are maintenance free and all vehicles are backed by a five-year warranty. We are delighted to be introducing the new series to the market at BTME and expect it to continue the success of the E-Z-GO ELiTE range.” The new Cushman Hauler ELiTE series is powered by a 48-volt electrical system and is a two-person capacity vehicle.
