ICON EV i20X

The ICON i20X is the two-seat entry to ICON's current ICON X platform and the only one in the range that ships as a golf car: twin coolers, sand and seed bottles, tee and ball holders and a rear bag rain cover are standard. Mechanically it is the full X-series package — a 48V 5 kW three-phase motor, 450A controller and 51V/105Ah ECO lithium pack, four-wheel disc brakes with an electromagnetic parking brake, front double-wishbone independent suspension and the dealer-adjustable ICONIC Lift System — behind a 10.1-inch CarPlay/Android Auto touchscreen with a back-up camera. Note it uses 2-point lap belts where the four- and six-seat X cars use 3-point. ICON publishes no top speed, range, dimensions, curb weight or MSRP for the X-series, so this entry carries none of them.

ICON EV i40FX

$12,395

ICON's forward-facing 4-seater on the newer ICON X platform, positioned as the premium-tech trim: 48V 5 kW AC motor, 51V/105Ah lithium pack, 10.1-inch CarPlay/Android Auto touchscreen, backup camera, front double-wishbone suspension and a dealer-adjustable ICONIC Lift System. It's a factory Low-Speed Vehicle (ICON EV is NHTSA-registered), but note the trim trap: it ships at 19 mph and the 25 mph street-legal LSV setup is a +$895 factory configuration. Dealers list it around $12,395.

ICON EV i40L

$9,500 – $11,495

ICON's 4-seat lifted cart with a 51V/105Ah lithium battery and 10-inch touchscreen standard on the 2025 model, and dealers quoting 25 mph and 25–30 miles per charge. It is a genuine factory Low-Speed Vehicle: NHTSA's manufacturer registry lists ICON EV's i40 as an LSV, and ICON's FAQ calls its LSVs FMVSS 500-compliant with a 17-digit VIN. One caveat — ICON's 2023 spec sheet lists the DOT windshield as an option. Dealer pricing observed $9,500–$11,495.

ICON EV i40X

The ICON i40X is the standard 4-passenger car on ICON's current ICON X platform, sharing its drivetrain with our i40FX: a 48V 5 kW three-phase motor, a 450A controller and a 51V/105Ah ECO lithium pack, with four-wheel disc brakes, an electromagnetic parking brake, front double-wishbone independent suspension and the dealer-adjustable ICONIC Lift System. It ships road-ready — full LED lighting with turn signals, four 3-point belts, a back-up camera and a foldable DOT-certified windshield — behind a 10.1-inch CarPlay/Android Auto touchscreen. ICON publishes no top speed, range, dimensions, curb weight or MSRP for the X-series, so this entry carries none of them.

ICON EV i60L

The ICON i60L is the lifted 6-passenger member of ICON's factory-LSV lineup (the same platform EPIC badges as the E60L), with a 51V 105Ah ECO lithium pack (AGM optional), a 5 kW motor, four-wheel disc brakes with an electromagnetic parking brake, MacPherson-style independent front suspension, and a 10.1-inch display. Dimensions (149×53×82 in, 1,541 lb) are decoded from ICON's official spec sheet; ICON's own page and spec sheet do not print a top speed, MSRP, or an explicit LSV/VIN line (the “L” denotes Lifted), so those are omitted.

ICON EV i60LX

The ICON i60LX is the lifted six-seater on ICON's current ICON X platform — the successor to the outgoing i60L. It runs the same X-series drivetrain as the i40X: a 48V 5 kW three-phase motor, 450A controller and 51V/105Ah ECO lithium pack, with four-wheel disc brakes, an electromagnetic parking brake, front double-wishbone independent suspension and the dealer-adjustable ICONIC Lift System. Six 3-point belts, grab bars, full LED lighting with turn signals, a back-up camera and a foldable DOT-certified windshield come standard, behind a 10.1-inch CarPlay/Android Auto touchscreen. ICON publishes no top speed, range, dimensions, curb weight or MSRP for the X-series, so this entry carries none of them.
