Electric Go Kart

Get Off the Beaten Path With Electric Go-Karts

Whether looking for a new hobby, for racing, or off-roading, an electric go-kart can provide hours of fun for your entire family. With varying sizes, shapes, and speeds, you can easily find the best match for your needs at the lowest prices when you shop on eBay.

Are these electric go-karts new or used?

Many are in brand-new condition. However, you can also find used or refurbished go-karts in great condition, too. A refurbished electric go-kart is used but has had any motor repairs, part replacements, or bodywork completed as needed. Buying both new or used has benefits. If you are purchasing a new electric go-kart, you have the assurance that you are the only one who has driven it. On the other hand, purchasing a refurbished model tells you that most defects or ill-functioning parts have been repaired or replaced.

What are some features of these go-karts?

With a large selection of go-karts from which to choose, you can find a variety of features. Most come with either a 24-volt or 48-volt lead-acid battery that you can recharge. Some even have solar panels. Some have pneumatic tires that can handle most off-road adventures. Others have molded rubber tires that are more suited for paved paths. With speeds as low as 8 mph and as high as 30 mph, you can easily find a go-kart for your desired performance level. A few features that are common to all of these go-karts include:

  • Disc brakes
  • Chain drive system
  • No emissions
What safety designs do these go-karts offer?

Some of these electric go-karts have certain safety features that along with a helmet and padded, protective body gear can enhance your safety exponentially when riding. Many have seat belts and padded seats. Some even come with a roll bar and padded steering wheels. The level of safety designs you require will ultimately depend on how you plan to use your electric go-kart.

How do you pick the right electric go-kart?

Finding the right go-kart depends on how you plan to use it. If you will be using this to compete in kart racing, you will want to look for a powerful go-kart with a heavy-duty frame and most of the listed safety features. If this go-kart will be used recreationally, you can go with a less powerful model.
