Tomberlin Engage Ghosthawk

The Tomberlin Engage Ghosthawk rebuilds the original Ghosthawk on the Engage platform: a 6-inch lift for a commanding view, matte-finish paint schemes, and a 450-amp AC powertrain making 17 hp for hill climbing and acceleration. The EVOLVE lithium pack is rated up to 80 miles and includes an exclusive 'limp home' mode, a genuinely useful feature no other cart here advertises. Wide stance with optional steel-belted tires, and a 5-year limited warranty. Tomberlin publishes no top speed for the Ghosthawk, so we do not print one; confirm the delivered speed configuration with the dealer. The $29,990 figure is the E4 Ghosthawk's MSRP as a dealer's Tomberlin feed lists it (Tomberlin publishes no price). Street-legal: yes (LSV certified). Dealer-quoted MSRP range: $29,990 (read Oct 20, 2026).

Maker claims 80 mi

Computed from the 10 kWh pack 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.
