I really need some kind of UTV but I hate making noise. Are there any 4x4 electric golf carts or electric UTVs that I should consider? I see really bad reviews for Kandi America but am curious is there is a viable electric 4x4 machine out there.

thx!

Electric 4x4s are really high priced. UTVs aren't that loud, or mine isn't unless you rev it high.

Go listen to a few models. You might be surprised.

listening to my neighbor at 6:30am every day is what inspired the electric route. He is only idling around and not trying to make any noise but his machine breaks the otherwise quiet of the morning

What model is it? My neighbors Kubota has a diesel in it. Obviously ... loud.

So does mine and it's crazy how loud that SXS actually is. And the bed rattle that his has is almost louder than the engine.

Dude's like a modern Dennis the Menace coming down the road LOL.

Several years ago at my work we ran the Polaris Ranger EV’s. The old design not the new kinetic model.
Same 4wd systemdrivetrain/suspension as the other rangers but with batteries and an electric motor.

Probably not a fair comparison on the range with them because we used them on a mostly level site but about 1000 acres, and had plenty of battery after a 12 hour shift.

Not completely silent as the motor makes some noise especially at full speed of 25mph. Instant off the line torque and would spin all the 4 tires with little effort.
