What Is a Neighborhood Electric Vehicle?
A Neighborhood Electric Vehicle (NEV) is a type of Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) with a top speed of 25 mph (40 kph) and a maximum loaded weight of 3,000 lbs (1,361 kg). Recognized by the U.S. Department of Transportation as a Low-Speed Vehicle (LSV), NEVs are federally approved street-legal vehicles that can be driven on most public roads with posted speed limits of 35 mph (56 kph), and up to 45 mph (72 kph) in some states.
The CRU not only meets the U.S. Federal Safety Standards (FMVSS 500), but also fully complies with the more stringent automotive SAE J2358 standard with the inclusion of seat belt anchorage requirements and occupant protective structure for rollover protection.
CRU has an onboard charger and is charged using a Club Car-supplied AC cord plugged into a 110V to 120V electrical outlet. No special car charging station or outlet is needed.
Range depends on your battery pack, load, and terrain, and can be as low as 25 or as high as 75 miles.
LSV stands for Low Speed Vehicle, a federally approved street-legal vehicle classification under the U.S. Department of Transportation.
NEV stands for Neighborhood Electric Vehicle, a type of Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) designed for short, local trips on roads with speed limits of 35 mph or lower (up to 45 mph in some states).
A: NEVs and LSVs have a top speed of 25 mph (40 kph).
The maximum loaded weight is 3,000 lbs (1361 kg).
Club Car vehicles go beyond basic safety requirements, meeting not only the U.S. Federal Safety Standard FMVSS 500, but also the more rigorous automotive SAE J2358 Standard. Our cars feature secure seat belt systems and a built-in protective structure for rollover protection, giving you confidence on every ride.
