Default Which Models Have Motor Brakes?

I'm in the market for a new (or nearly new) electric EZGO, and the motor brakes really appeal to me. The cart is to be used for golf only, lots of starting and stopping, so the idea of not having to use a mechanical brake seems nice.

Which models should I be considering?

Thanks!

The only ezgo model that uses strictly motor (regenerative) braking is the RXV, the only physical brake is a parking brake that automatically engages & disengages.

RXV and the 2Five are the only ones I'm aware of that have the automatic parking brake. The 2Five has 4 wheel disc brakes but still has the automatic parking brake on the motor. Also it's an LSV requiring tag, insurance and license to drive and I think out of production.
All electric RXVs have the auto parking brake. Been in production since 2008 but if shopping for a used one look for 2012.5 and newer because of a change to Curtis controllers that year.
If you check the current EZGO web site, the only cart listed with the auto brake is the RXV electric, both regular and lithium.

I have a 2012 model. love the auto brake.

Edit: some Chinese carts have it. They have various names.
