EPIC Carts E60

The EPIC E60 is the traditional-profile six-seater (4+2) in EPIC's Classic line, below the forward-facing E60FX.

EPIC is an NHTSA-registered Low-Speed Vehicle maker; the E60 tops out at 25 mph in its Sport (LSV) mode. Dealer pricing runs around $13,545. Street-legal: yes (LSV certified). MSRP range: $13,545.

◆ Range reality check

~43mi, normalized

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.
