Garia Via 4-Seater

The Garia Via is the US street-legal, 25 mph low-speed vehicle from Garia, a Danish luxury EV maker founded in 2005 and owned by Club Car since 2022. Built in Denmark with automotive-grade materials, dual-circuit hydraulic brakes on all four wheels, independent double-wishbone front suspension and a coilover-sprung live rear axle, the 4-seater carries four forward-facing passengers up to about 40 miles per charge (lithium or lead-acid). With the lithium pack its specs describe, Garia's US price list puts the street-legal Via 4 at $34,813 (120 Ah) to $37,802 (180 Ah); a lead-acid build is $28,972 — firmly the luxury end of the field. Street-legal: yes (LSV certified). MSRP range: $34,813–$37,802.

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.
