The new product addresses the growing market for golf cart batteries that is forecast to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9% from 2022 to 2031 to reach $216.5 million by 2031, according to Allied Market Research. The lithium battery segment for golf carts represents only about two-fifths of the global golf cart battery market by revenue in 2021, but is expected to dominate the market by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2022 to 2031.

The new battery solution also addresses the light electric vehicle market that is projected to grow at 9.4% CAGR from $78.5 billion in 2022 to $122.7 billion by 2027, according to ReportLinker.

"As our first Bluetooth enabled battery, we see this as just the beginning of an expanding line of e360 SmartTalk-ready batteries that we expect will be in high demand for both existing and future product applications," added Schaffner. "We anticipate the superior customer experience provided by these solutions will broaden our markets and advance our competitive edge."

"We anticipate the superior customer experience provided by these solutions will broaden our markets and advance our competitive edge."

Key features and benefits of the e360 SmartTalk battery solution include:

  • e360 SmartTalk: The battery's fully integrated e360 SmartTalk Bluetooth technology enables golf cart operators to wirelessly monitor individual and multiple battery bank performance, and receive real-time status updates and alerts through the e360 SmartTalk mobile app.
  • Controller Area Network (CAN Bus) Communication: CAN Bus capabilities ensure seamless integration with golf cart systems, facilitating efficient and reliable communication between the battery and the cart.
  • Oversized Solid Brass Terminals: Expion360's signature oversized solid brass battery terminals ensure a secure and dependable connection, optimizing conductivity and reducing electrical resistance. These special e360 terminals provide golf cart operators with the peace of mind that their battery is delivering maximum performance over time.
  • Fiberglass ABS Case: The battery features a robust fiberglass-infused ABS case designed for exceptional protection and durability. The rugged construction is designed to withstand the rigors of golf cart usage, helping to ensure longevity and reliability under various weather conditions.
  • Exceptional Lifespan, Weight, Power and Capacity: Since the batteries utilize premium LiFePO4 materials, they can have a lifespan of 12 years or three to four times that of most lead-acid batteries.

In addition to existing LEV owners, Expion360 is also targeting LEV, RV, RV overland, and marine OEMs that need a 48v battery solution. The new battery is also being offered in conversion kits to the after-market replacing lead acid batteries which have numerous drawbacks, both environmental and with performance. Despite being half the weight, e360 batteries provide three times the power and 10 times the number of charging cycles compared to standard lead-acid batteries.

Engineered with Expion360 Extreme Density 4.0 Ah UL1642 (file no. MH64383) stainless steel encased 26650 cylindrical LiFePO4 cells helps ensure superior durability, reliability, and longevity.

The new battery offers an impressive capacity of 36 Ah (1843.2 Wh), providing long-lasting power that maximizes operating time on the course or around the campus.

The new e360 SmartTalk golf cart battery is available now for pre-order, with initial shipments planned for the third quarter of 2023.

The company has applied for a U.S. patent related to the design of the new battery.

Expion360's original lineup of Li-ion batteries are available today through more than 213 dealers, wholesalers, private-label customers, and OEMs nationwide. To locate your local Expion360 dealer or purchase Expion360 batteries and accessories online, go to expion360.com.
