The Gem E825, produced from 1999 to 2001, was a compact electric golf cart designed for use on private properties, campuses, and resort areas. This model, like many other early Gem vehicles, was known for its simplicity and ease of maintenance, making it a popular choice for both personal and commercial applications. The E825 features a compact, lightweight design with a maximum payload capacity of 600 pounds. It is powered by a 48-volt electric motor, providing a top speed of 15 mph and a range of roughly 25 miles on a single charge. The E825 was offered in a variety of configurations, including various seating arrangements, colors, and optional features like a rear-view mirror, windshield, and canopy. One of the notable features of the E825 was its regenerative braking system, which recharged the batteries while braking, extending driving range and improving efficiency. This system, while basic compared to modern regenerative braking systems, was a significant step forward for electric vehicles at the time. Despite its popularity and early success, the E825, like many other electric golf carts from this era, faced challenges related to battery technology and charging infrastructure. Lead-acid batteries, while readily available and affordable, suffered from shorter lifespans and required significant maintenance compared to modern lithium-ion batteries. Limited charging infrastructure also presented challenges for owners who needed to travel beyond their property or resort. However, the Gem E825 played a significant role in the evolution of electric vehicles, demonstrating the practicality and potential of electric transportation for short-distance travel. Its design and features paved the way for future generations of electric golf carts and low-speed vehicles, which have become increasingly popular with advancements in battery technology, charging infrastructure, and design. Today, the E825 remains a reminder of the early days of electric vehicle development and serves as a testament to the ingenuity and innovation that have driven the industry forward.
