By The Smith Family, reviewed by Brad · Independent, no paid placement · Last verified Nov 10, 2026

The Edge-EV Vortex V6 is the 6-passenger “limo” member of the factory-LSV Vortex line, with a 72V 105Ah lithium pack, an on-board smart charger (6–8 hr on a household outlet), four-wheel disc brakes, and a 10-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto. Edge-EV's site is a wholesale portal with no spec table, so specs are dealer-corroborated and factory-LSV status follows Edge-EV's NHTSA (vPIC) make registration; top speed, motor, range, dimensions, weight, and warranty are not published, and the $14,995 figure is a dealer starting price. Street-legal: yes (LSV certified). Maker's store price range: $14,995 (read Oct 20, 2026).

◆ Range reality check

~60mi, normalized
Maker claims 50 mi

Computed from the ≈7.56 kWh pack (system voltage × amp-hours) at a standard 0.125 kWh per mile — the same efficiency on every model, so ranges compare apples-to-apples. Real-world range varies with load, terrain, speed, and battery age.

Our figures, from verified specs + the cart's sourced price — lower cost-per-seat and cost-per-mile is better; higher power-to-weight means more pep and hill-climb. Range uses the normalized estimate. Cost per kWh is what the price actually buys you in battery — the single figure that separates a cheap cart from an under-batteried one, and almost nobody publishes it. Pack energy is the maker's published kWh where they give one, otherwise volts × amp-hours.
