More efficient, more range per charge. 3-phase motors in carts can be tuned to be very powerful. You arent nearly as "speed limited" as you are with a DC motor (rxv motors can handle rpms that would destroy typical dc brushed motors quickly). No brushes to wear out on AC motors. Much more effective at using "regen braking" to put energy back into the batteries when your slowing down.

The list of advantages is pretty significant.
