Yamaha features battery technology in its golf and light utility vehicles.
In the Drive² AC Li golf car the battery is a high-performance, maintenance-free, cobalt-free unit from the renowned manufacturer, Roypow, and offers a number of key benefits.
Linked to a powerful 3.3 kW motor, it provides fast, smooth acceleration and, with greater torque than a conventional lead acid battery, it’s 20% faster climbing a 15-degree incline.
Of appeal to golf course operators, the batteries are maintenance-free resulting in considerable savings in time and labour costs. They also come with a five-year warranty and a working life of up to eight years. They charge almost twice as quickly as their lead-acid equivalents and provide in excess of three rounds before they require recharging.
The new Drive² AC Li can utilise YamaTrack, Yamaha’s management system, that improves the operational efficiency of any golf car fleet. It allows golfers to enjoy 3-D terrain graphics and customisable Pro tips, while geo-zones can be set up to protect environmentally sensitive areas and players can pre-order food and beverages while out on the course.
While the successful range of Yamaha’s ATV models satisfies the requirements of the more extreme off-road user, the UMX AC is designed to handle an array of tasks in commercial, industrial, agricultural and leisure environments.
At its heart, the UMX AC features a punchy 48-volt, 5.0 kW motor, that’s not just quieter and better for the environment, but has a good range and is simple to plug in and charge. It delivers smooth, flexible power that takes the operator just about anywhere in a park, resort, golf course, farm, airport, factory … just simply point and go.
The UMX AC is a strong, stylish and compact utility vehicle that is equipped to transport two people and their cargo efficiently and offers the versatility, user-friendliness and durability that professional operators require. It has been designed to handle everything from site maintenance duties and light farming through to gardening and housekeeping chores.
