As part of this contract, E-Z-GO will also offer Trojan’s HydroLink single-point watering system as an option. The HydroLink watering system will be available as an aftermarket accessory as well as factory-installed on Trojan batteries in select golf cars, like the RXV and TXT 48.
Kevin Holleran, president of E-Z-GO, said: “Extending our partnership was an easy decision stemming from the outstanding collaboration that existed between our two companies. Trojan’s innovative battery technology has enabled E-Z-GO to integrate vital technological advancements such as the TruCourse Technology featured in our TXT 48.
“In addition, we rely on Trojan for its exceptional field support, which has resulted in improved efficiency and a higher level of customer service provided by E-Z-GO dealers and service locations nationwide.”
E-Z-GO’s new TXT 48 is an update of the TXT electric golf car platform with a 48-volt DC drivetrain and E-Z-GO’s TruCourse technology system.
The combination of the 48-volt DC drivetrain and TruCourse technology also makes the TXT 48 10% energy efficient than the previous 36-model, and its improved regenerative braking system provides up to 10% power back into the batteries under normal operating conditions, the company said.
As of mid-April, the TXT 48 and other new electric vehicles from E-Z-GO will also feature Trojan’s new T2 Technology, a series of refinements integrated for enhanced performance in Trojan’s deep cycle golf batteries.
