Cruise Car, Inc., Sarasota, FL, the
leading manufacturer and distributor of solar-powered electric
vehicles in the U.S., has recently developed a revolutionary new
product that will allow most popular golf carts to utilize solar
power as its energy source.
The Sunray Solar Roof Kit will soon be
available to dealers, golf courses, resorts or anyone who owns a
golf cart. This high-quality, state-of-the-art solar roof top can
be easily installed by any qualified golf cart dealership or
individual.
"Due to the overwhelming response to our
Cruise Car solar-electric vehicles, we decided to develop a
conversion kit so golf cart owners around the country can solarize
their vehicles," said Ken Chester, president of Cruise Car , adding,
"Now everyone with an electric cart can participate in the
'greening' of America while saving money on energy costs." The
same high-tech solar panels used in the Cruise Car solar models
will for the first time be available to owners and dealers at very
affordable pricing. Federal tax credits for buying solar also help
save even more money for purchasers.
These solar panels can generate up to
180 watts, 60 volts and supply a hefty 3 amps directly to a 36 or
48 volt battery system. As long as the vehicle is in the sun, the
battery system is constantly recharging itself through the solar
panel.
Converting a cart to a Sunray top will
benefit the end user by increasing the distance the cart can go on
a single charge by 30%. A golf cart with a solar-panel is ideal for
trips around town, around the neighborhood or for those extra
rounds of golf. With the Sunray Solar Roof Kit, Golf courses and
cart owners across the country can do their part for the
environment and save on energy costs -- and not have to
give up the vehicle they currently own and enjoy.
"As today's out-of-control fossil fuel
prices continue to make travel expensive, alternative energy
sources- such as solar power - will only grow in viability and
importance," said Chester, "Cruise Car is answering the
call as the exclusive provider of solar-electric vehicles in the
U.S.A. In this dynamically changing world, solar energy is no
longer just a convenience, it's a necessity."
