Kandi America Kruiser 4Pro
The Kandi Kruiser 4Pro is a US-assembled (Garland, TX), value-priced four-seater sold in a genuine 25 mph street-legal LSV trim — confirmed as a Low-Speed Vehicle by NHTSA's registry (SC Autosports dba Kandi America). It pairs a 5 kW AC motor with a 48V/150Ah lithium pack, a 10-inch touchscreen, and a 1,100 lb tow rating at a $9,999 MSRP. One caution: Kandi sells the same Kruiser body as both this 25 mph lithium LSV and a cheaper 20 mph AGM golf-cart trim that is not street-titled — confirm the lithium LSV trim and a matching title before buying. Street-legal: yes (LSV certified). MSRP range: $9,999.
Factory-certified Low-Speed Vehicle (FMVSS 500)
Factory LSV in the 25 mph lithium trim (NHTSA-registered). Trim trap: the cheaper 20 mph base Kruiser is not a street-titled LSV — buy the 25 mph LSV version.

◆ Range reality check
Computed from the ≈7.2 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.
