2000 DS Speed and Torque Expectations
All,
I purchased a 2000 DS, 48V with a CC 3.75 hp motor (series) and a 300A Curtis controller (all stock, see details listed below). I have new Trojans Batteries and new 8" tires (properly inflated). Cart seems to run well, but uphill speeds a little slow (15MPH on the flat and 10MPH uphill, med grade, just me in the cart). I installed a volt meter and batteries dip only about a volt on a uphill and quickly recover on the flat. Do these results seem reasonable? Flats speeds ok, but I'd like a little more speed on the uphill as I live in a hilly area. Is there anything simple I can do to help to a add a couple more MPHs on the uphill? Perhaps reprogramming the controller? From my research, it seems I need more torque vs more speed. So a new 400 amp controller, new solenoid and perhaps thicker gauge wiring would help. What could I reasonably expect with these upgrades and keeping the 3.75 HP motor? Thanks in advance for all replies! Serial Number: A0017-886738 Club Car Motor Part Number:101785702 Curtis Controller Model Number: 1204-412 Lester OBC Part Number:19190-88 |

Re: 2000 DS Speed and Torque Expectations
The most you could get is what you see on flat. But that would be a stretch with a stock motor. You may have to upgrade to a torque motor next...
