Why Lithium Is the Smartest Choice for Your Golf Cart in 2025

Looking to Upgrade Your Golf Cart Battery?

If you’re still running your golf cart on traditional lead-acid batteries, 2025 is the perfect time to make the switch. Lithium batteries are the smarter, safer and more efficient option. Whether you’re cruising the fairways, managing a resort, or operating carts on a mine site, lithium power delivers stronger performance, less maintenance and greater reliability.

At Buggies & Batteries, we supply and install Australian-made lithium batteries built to handle Central and Western Queensland conditions. With up to 30 km of range and a 10-year full warranty, they’re a long-term investment in convenience and peace of mind.

Here’s why more cart owners are choosing lithium.

1. Longer Run Time, Less Downtime

Lithium batteries have a higher energy density, giving you more drive time per charge — up to 30 km on a standard two-seat cart. They also recharge much faster, so you can get back on the move quickly.

• Spend more time driving
• Spend less time charging

2. Zero Maintenance

Forget checking water levels or dealing with corrosion. Lithium batteries are fully sealed, maintenance-free and built to perform even in Queensland’s heat and dust.

• Perfect for resorts, mine sites, schools and busy operators who want reliability without the hassle

3. Built-In Safety

Our lithium batteries use LiFePO4 technology with built-in fire protection systems and durable steel casings. They’re among the safest options available in Australia and ideal for workplaces or fleets where safety is a priority.

• Designed for dependable performance when carts are used by staff or the public

4. Made for Australian Conditions

Unlike many imports, our batteries are manufactured in Australia and engineered to handle the unique challenges of heat, humidity and coastal environments. From Yeppoon to Gladstone and beyond, they’re proven to perform in tough outdoor and industrial conditions.

5. Better Value Over Time

While lithium batteries cost more upfront, they offer better value in the long run. With a longer lifespan, no servicing requirements and greater efficiency, they often end up saving you money compared to multiple lead-acid replacements.

• Can last up to three times longer than standard lead-acid batteries
