Tomberlin E-Merge LXR (E2+2)
The Tomberlin E-Merge LXR is the entry model of Tomberlin's luxury line, priced into our premium division: a 2+2 four-passenger LSV with an automotive-painted body and colour-matched roof, premium LXR steering wheel, a 7-inch LCD dash with integrated rear camera, dual back-lit mirrors with illuminated turn signals, double-ended rack and pinion steering, anti-roll sway bar, and a 5-year limited warranty. Its EVOLVE L210 lithium pack (210 Ah, 10 kWh) is standard, marked as standard equipment on Tomberlin's LXR sell sheet, and Tomberlin rates it up to 80 miles. The catch: Tomberlin's own LXR page still carries a leftover line quoting 45 miles "with lead acid batteries" from the cheaper SE trim, so confirm the lithium pack on the unit's window sticker before you sign. The $17,500 figure is the E2+2 LXR's MSRP as a Florida dealer's Tomberlin feed lists it (Tomberlin publishes no price). Street-legal: yes (LSV certified). Dealer-quoted MSRP range: $17,500 (read Oct 20, 2026).
Factory-certified Low-Speed Vehicle (FMVSS 500)
Factory-certified street-legal LSV — Tomberlin has self-certified LSVs since 2006 and fits LSV-compliant four-wheel hydraulic brakes across the range. Tomberlin publishes a top speed only for the GTZ (25 mph), so on the other models confirm the delivered speed configuration with the dealer before you buy to register.

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.
