New E-Z-Go Express vehicles feature industry’s first 72-volt AC electric powertrain.

Textron Specialized Vehicles Inc., a Textron Inc. company, announced the release of new models of its E-Z-GO Express personal transport vehicles, featuring the industry’s first 72-volt AC electric powertrain to provide users with more power, range and performance.

“With the introduction of our 72-volt AC technology into our Express series, we are giving our customers an enhanced driver experience that allows them to get the most out of their vehicle,” said John Collins, Vice President, Consumer for Textron Specialized Vehicles. “We are the first to market with 72-volt AC technology and continue to demonstrate our commitment to deliver innovative new products to the PTV sector.”

With six 12-volt batteries and a 350-amp controller, the new Express models offer customers increased range and battery life, and seating for up to six passengers. The new 72-volt models are equipped with dual USB ports, an onboard charger and a state-of-charge meter. Also standard is a dash-mounted speed-selection switch that allows the user to easily toggle between maximum speeds of 12 mph or 16.5 mph, so they can tailor the vehicle’s speed to its environment.

The exclusive 72-volt AC technology will be available on the E-Z-GO Express S6 and L6. The Express L6 features higher ground clearance and rugged tires, ready to take you wherever the trail leads in a smooth and stylish ride. With machined wheels and a lower ride height, the Express S6 is built to help you enjoy your days in style, and keeps you ready for whatever lies ahead.
