Mammoth cart review: XR2, XR4, XR4F and XR6 specs, $15,800 new vs about $11,000 used, street-legal status, and why the warranty does not transfer.

A Mammoth cart is a premium lithium golf cart from MammothEV, a young brand that designs its carts in the US and assembles them in Idaho. The 2026 lineup runs a 72-volt, 150Ah lithium pack and a 7.5 kW motor, and dealers list the 2-seat XR2 starting at $15,800. Used, they drop fast: a like-new 2025 XR2 was listed on Commonplace at $11,400, roughly 28% under that new price after a single season. And there's one catch every used Mammoth cart buyer needs to know before anything else. The factory warranty doesn't transfer to you.
I help people buy and sell big, awkward things for a living, and golf carts are one of the busiest categories on our marketplace. Newer brands like MammothEV are where buyers get stuck, because there's very little written about them beyond dealer pages. So below I'll cover who makes Mammoth golf carts, every model and its specs, what they cost new and used, whether they're street legal, the warranty problem, and what I'd check before buying one secondhand.
MammothEV makes Mammoth golf carts, and the company says it was established in 2021. Its site says the carts are designed in the USA and assembled in Idaho. One third-party review places the company in Gilbert, Arizona, with distribution in Boise and Gilbert. The same review says parts originate overseas before assembly, which the manufacturer doesn't address. I'd treat "assembled in Idaho" as the confirmed part.
One thing people get wrong: Mammoth isn't a direct-to-consumer brand. MammothEV sells through authorized dealers, and its site sends buyers to a dealer for pricing, financing and delivery. That matters for two reasons. You can't just order one online at a factory-direct price, and the dealer is who handles warranty claims and service.
If you came here searching "mammoth diesel cart," that's not this company. MammothEV's lineup is all-electric. There's no diesel model in it.
The 2026 Mammoth lineup is four models, and they all share the same drivetrain. Every one runs a 72V, 150Ah lithium-ion battery, a Navitas 7.5 kW motor with a 600-amp controller, rear-wheel drive, four-wheel disc brakes and a 25-plus mph top speed. The differences are seats, length and weight.
| Model | Seats | Length x width x height | Dry weight | Ground clearance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| XR2 | 2 | 96 x 44 x 74 in | 1,190 lb | 11 in |
| XR4 | 4 (2+2 with rear flip seat) | 120 x 53 x 82 in | 1,390 lb | 7.75 in |
| XR4F | 4, all forward facing | 126 x 53 x 82 in | 1,510 lb | 7.75 in |
| XR6 | 6 | 156 x 53 x 82 in | 1,694 lb | 7.75 in |
Each model comes in standard or lifted height. MammothEV quotes a 40 to 50 mile range and a 3 to 5 hour charge on a regular 110-volt outlet. The cabin is where the money shows: leather seats with diamond stitching, a 10.5-inch touchscreen, three-point seat belts, proximity key fobs and a wireless phone charger. Buyers also get more than 200 body colors and 36 seat colors, which is why so many used Mammoths look one of a kind.
Here's the part that trips up used buyers. Older Mammoth carts aren't built to the 2026 spec. Dealer listings for 2025 XR2 carts describe a 5 kW AC motor, a 450-amp controller and a 30 mph top speed, and one third-party spec page lists a 48-volt lithium battery. So a used Mammoth cart can have a meaningfully different drivetrain from a new one. Ask the seller for the model year and the original spec sheet, and read the label on the battery pack. A 72V, 150Ah pack is roughly 10.8 kWh of storage, and you want to know if that's what you're paying for.
A new Mammoth XR2 starts at $15,800 MSRP at dealers, and some color and seat packages list at $16,500. MammothEV doesn't publish prices on its own site. A third-party review says a 2023 XR4 listed at $14,500 and that 2025 pricing jumped to around $15,500 or more. I couldn't find published MSRPs for the 2026 XR4, XR4F or XR6, so get a written quote from a dealer if you're comparing.
Used is where it gets interesting. On Commonplace, a like-new 2025 XR2 with a canopy was listed at $11,400, and a like-new 2023 lifted lithium Mammoth sold from a $10,623 asking price. Against a $15,800 starting price, that's roughly 28 to 33% off in one to three years.
| Mammoth cart | Price | Source |
|---|---|---|
| New 2025 XR2 | $15,800 starting MSRP | Dealer listings |
| New 2023 XR4 | About $14,500 | Third-party review |
| Used 2025 XR2, like new | $11,400 asking | Commonplace listing |
| Used 2023 lifted lithium, like new | $10,623 asking (sold) | Commonplace listing |
Why do they depreciate so fast? Two reasons. The brand is new, so there's no long resale track record to support high used prices. And the warranty doesn't carry over to a second owner, which I'll get to below. That second reason is the big one. It's also why a used Mammoth can be a good deal, as long as you go in knowing what you're giving up.
So what's a fair used price for a one- or two-season-old Mammoth cart? Based on what I've seen, about $10,500 to $11,500 for a clean XR2 or lifted 4-seater with a healthy battery. Pay toward the top only with paperwork showing the model year and battery spec. For how that compares with every other brand, my used golf cart price guide lays it out by brand, year and battery.
MammothEV doesn't advertise its carts as street-legal LSVs, so don't assume one is. The carts do carry a lot of the equipment: a DOT-approved windscreen on every 2026 model, LED headlamps and tail lamps, and dealer listings show turn signals, brake lights, hazard lights, a horn, side mirrors and seat belts for every passenger. That's most of the list.
But equipment isn't the same as a street-legal vehicle. A true low-speed vehicle has a 17-digit VIN and a certification label saying it meets the federal LSV standard, and then your state decides whether it can be titled, registered and insured. If the Mammoth you're looking at has no VIN and no title, it's a golf cart, whatever the listing says.
Speed is the other wrinkle. LSVs are limited to 25 mph. Some 2025 Mammoth listings advertise 30 mph, and MammothEV's warranty mentions dealer programming up to 30 mph. A cart set above 25 mph doesn't fit the federal LSV definition. Before you plan to drive one on public roads, read my street-legal golf cart and LSV guide, and check my picks for the best neighborhood and street carts.
MammothEV's 10-year warranty is non-transferable, so a used Mammoth cart comes with no factory coverage. That's straight from the company's warranty page. It covers the "original retail registered purchaser" only, and it only applies to carts bought from an authorized dealer in the US.
For a first owner, the coverage is generous. Ten years on the charger, controller, electric motor and suspension. Lifetime on the frame (excluding drivetrain, suspension, roof supports, paint and corrosion). And a lifetime lithium battery warranty for 2025 and newer models. Wear parts like the windshield, tires, brakes and seats aren't covered.
It also voids easily. Non-approved tires, parts not authorized by MammothEV, or raising the speed past the dealer's 30 mph programming can void it. So even a first owner can lose coverage by modifying the cart.
For you as a used buyer, the takeaway is simple. Price the cart as if it has no warranty, because it doesn't. That's exactly what the used prices above already reflect. A Mammoth at $11,000 with no factory coverage is a different purchase from a $15,800 new one with ten years of it, and you should only pay used-cart money.
Compare that with a Star EV Sirius, which comes with a 4-year limited warranty and up to 6.5 years on the lithium battery new. I cover it in today's other post, Star and Sirius golf carts.
Mammoth's main advantage over most competitors is its 72-volt system. Most carts in this segment run 48 volts. Here's how the 2026 Mammoth XR4 stacks up against a Star EV Sirius 2+2 on published specs:
| Spec | MammothEV XR4 (2026) | Star EV Sirius 2+2 |
|---|---|---|
| System voltage | 72V | 48V |
| Motor | 7.5 kW Navitas | 4 kW AC |
| Controller | 600A | 350A |
| Battery | 150Ah lithium-ion | 80Ah to 210Ah LiFePO4 |
| Claimed range | 40 to 50 miles | 40 to 60 miles |
| Charge time (110V) | 3 to 5 hours | 5 to 10 hours |
| Factory warranty | 10 years, non-transferable | 4-year limited, 2-year bumper-to-bumper |
| Built | Assembled in Idaho | Simpsonville, South Carolina |
More voltage and a bigger motor mean more pull on hills and with a full load. A shorter charge time is a real everyday win. The trade is price and age. Mammoth is a newer brand with fewer dealers, and there's not much history on how its carts hold up past a few seasons.
I've also reviewed Evolution vs ICON in the same segment. If you just want the most dependable used cart and don't care about the lifted look, a used Club Car or Yamaha is still the safe pick.
There isn't much public complaint data on Mammoth carts yet, which is normal for a brand founded in 2021. One review said the reviewer couldn't find meaningful negatives, and mentioned a single customer issue that the company resolved quickly. Other buyers note the higher price compared with basic carts. That's thin evidence either way, so I'd focus on the parts that wear on any lifted lithium cart.
Here's what I'd check on a used Mammoth cart, in order:
For the full walk-around, including the frame and brake checks, use my used golf cart inspection checklist.
MammothEV does. The company says it was established in 2021 and that its carts are designed in the USA and assembled in Idaho. They're sold through authorized dealers, not directly to consumers.
Yes, every one. The 2026 lineup uses a 72V, 150Ah lithium-ion pack. Some earlier carts were listed with different specs, so confirm the battery on any used one.
MammothEV lists the 2026 models at 25-plus mph, with drive modes of 25 mph or 8 mph. Some 2025 dealer listings advertise 30 mph. Above 25 mph, a cart doesn't qualify as a federal low-speed vehicle.
No. MammothEV's warranty covers the original retail registered purchaser only and is non-transferable. Budget for a used Mammoth as an out-of-warranty cart.
About $10,500 to $11,500 for a clean, one- to three-year-old cart, based on Commonplace listings. A like-new 2025 XR2 was listed at $11,400 against a $15,800 starting price new.
