GM Hummer converted into electric golf cart, sheds extra pounds

When you hear the name Hummer, the one thing that strikes you is obnoxious. Taking it a step further, the General Motors introduces yet another style chapter; only this time, they are electric golf carts! Flaunting the ‘wow factor’ of the original Hummer vehicles, these golf carts come with usual appeal, but is stripped of the jazzy and outlandish features within the vehicle, and surprisingly, is eco friendly too!

Hummer has been typically known to produce vehicles which come in gigantic sizes, and a fuel consumption rate to match the sizes. But taking a different step this time, the golf carts introduced by the American car brand have the main styling factors of normal Hummers, come in smaller sizes and are the eco friendly versions of the original monster. Since the vehicles rely on electrically charged batteries for power, the emissions are nullified and, thus, the pollution factor is perfectly taken care of.

The standard model comes with the usual brake and tail lights, license plates, polished chrome wheels and wooden empaneling. Moreover, it features the added flexibility of several add-on features like a CD player, Gas motor, the special Chrome grills which could further add to the ‘jazz’ factor (if the looks itself weren’t enough), and make a perfect style statement .

A perfect maneuver by General Motors, these golf carts are targeted at those who like adding the aura of style factor to their travel, even to just tee-off! Just like the original ‘Hummies’, these golf carts are meant for the deep-pocketed buyers with the slightly heavier price tag, look to impose their presence and certainly make a few heads turn with their presence. The positive angle to this episode would be that these ‘Golfing-Hummies’, instead of guzzling gallons of fossil fuel, would run on emission free, electric engines.

But what is still unknown is how long the battery in the engine needs to be charged, and how long is it going to run after each recharge? And power cuts as well? Till these queries are solved, Hummer lovers certainly have a reason to smile and make their presence felt around the golfing greens with these eco friendly carts.
