EPIC Carts E40L
EPIC's lifted four-seater (an ICON family brand) pairs a 5 kW motor with a 51V/105Ah lithium pack and lists 25 miles per charge at 20 mph — the most conservative range disclosure in the field, which we count in its favor. EPIC's own copy only says "street-ready," but it is a genuine factory LSV: NHTSA's registry lists EPIC Distribution as a Low-Speed Vehicle manufacturer with its own VIN prefix. Ships with LSV equipment (turn signals, mirrors, 3-point belts, DOT windshield). Dealer pricing observed $12,995–$15,000. Street-legal: yes (LSV certified). MSRP range: $12,995–$15,000.
Factory-certified Low-Speed Vehicle (FMVSS 500)
Factory-certified street-legal LSV — no conversion kit needed.

◆ Range reality check
Computed from the ≈5.36 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 + MSRP — 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.
