Teko EV Turbo (2+2)

The compact 2+2 that Botero Carts merchandises hardest: 51.2V/105Ah lithium, 5 kW Nidec motor, CarPlay touchscreen, listed by Florida dealers at a $9,995 MSRP. Two things the listings don't lead with: the base Turbo ships around 19 mph with street-legal sold as a configuration, and Teko EV shares its factory (TAO Motors) with Denago EV — cross-shop the Rover XL and you're comparing siblings. Street-legal: yes (LSV certified). Dealer-quoted MSRP range: $9,995 (read Oct 20, 2026).

Maker claims 40 mi

Computed from the ≈5.38 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.
