2004 Villager 8 Is Slooooow
Until my recent purchase of a Club Car Villager 8, I've been an EZGo guy, so please be patient with me. I just put a new set of batteries in this cart (50 volts total and each battery reads about 8.35). I load tested each one and they all passed. The cart hits a top speed of 11 mph on flat ground. It slows to about 8 going up a mild incline. My understanding is that this cart should run between 15 and 17 mph. The power is consistent. No lunging or stalling. It's just slow. Any ideas?

If it's a series drive system it sounds about right. They're terribly slow. 10-12mph or so usually.

Well, that's terribly disappointing! But on the bright side, I guess that means there's nothing wrong with it! :)

Re: 2004 Villager 8 Is Slooooow
What is the cheapest way to get some more speed out of it?

Re: 2004 Villager 8 Is Slooooow
What is something like this worth? It's in great shape, but I'll probably sell it and look for something with a little more pep. It's a 2004 Villager 8.
