Years ago, the golf cart market in the USA was dominated by lead-acid batteries, and ROYPOW changed the game by introducing lithium-ion batteries that offer longer lifespans, faster charging, greater energy efficiency, improved performance, and lower carbon footprint. Today, ROYPOW has become a well-known brand—both a pioneer in the shift from lead-acid to lithium batteries and the best-selling Li-ion battery brand for golf carts in the USA. Though achieving positive success, this is just the beginning. In 2025, ROYPOW will embark on a new journey, further expanding its impact in the golf cart battery market.
Innovative Products and New Lineups
As part of this journey, ROYPOW is introducing upgraded products and new lineups for enhanced power supply and driving experience.
One of the highlights is the Upgraded Lithium-ion Batteries. They’re equipped with an intelligent SOC meter for real-time monitoring via the monitor display or Bluetooth-enabled mobile app, along with 6-level safety protection. These safety features include manufacturing-level safety with full traceability from raw material procurement to battery manufacturing, material-level safety with a UL94-V0 flame retardant rating, cell-level safety with automotive-grade cells certified by over 10 industry standards such as IEC62619 and UL1642, BMS safety that supports 315A for 30 seconds and up to 600A output for less than 3 seconds, and pack-level safety with built-in double safe fuses. Additionally, the batteries are undergoing safety certifications to meet strict standards.
Some new models are designed with advanced Cell-to-Pack (CTP) technologies, a first in the golf cart battery industry. Compared to traditional battery assembly, which involves three stages—cell, module, and pack—CTP technology eliminates the module design and directly integrates cells into a battery. This enables higher integration and increases space efficiency to fit more cart models. With 10 years of design life, over 3,500 times of cycle life, and 5 years of full replacement warranty, ROYPOW lithium golf cart battery solutions provide long-lasting performance and peace of mind for customers.
Another highlight is the New Electric Motor and Controller Lineup. Motors and controllers play a crucial role in enhancing the overall driving experience. They significantly enhance efficiency and ride quality, ensuring smooth acceleration, optimizing battery use, and providing reliable operation across various terrains. Therefore, reliable solutions are essential for enhancing golf cart performance.
ROYPOW offers two competitive solutions powered by ULTRADRIVE TechnologyTM: a 15kW compact 2-in-1 drive motor and a 25kW PMSM motor and controller solution. The former is lightweight and compact integrated with the motor and controller function, offering powerful acceleration and extended driving range. Its permanent magnets and 6-phase hair-pin motor technology ensure high efficiency. With a maximum output of 15kW/60Nm and a speed of 16,000rpm, it delivers exceptional performance, while CANBUS-based battery protection supports safety and extends battery life.
The latter comes with a motor featuring stator technology with flat wire and potting for improved heat dissipation, which delivers over 15 kW continuous and 25 kW peak power. With a double V-shaped magnet, it achieves 115Nm of peak torque and speeds up to 10,000 rpm, with over 94% efficiency. The controller uses a topside-cooled MOSFET design for efficient heat dissipation, integrates Hall sensors for accurate current sampling, and supports resolvers for more accurate position signals and improved torque control precision. It includes Model-Based Design (MBD) for better performance and thermal protection, supports ASIL C-level safety, and provides up to 500 A RMS with 98% efficiency. Both solutions are built to automotive-grade standards, ensuring the highest levels of quality, safety, and durability.
By combining batteries, motors, and controllers with ROYPOW’s self-developed golf cart chargers—designed for optimal battery performance and seamless communication between the charger and the battery—ROYPOW is now offering Complete Power Solutions for Golf Carts.
With four solutions as a whole system, ROYPOW ensures seamless integration and compatibility between products, eliminating performance issues often caused by different brands and guaranteeing enhanced vehicle performance, and unparalleled reliability for golf carts. The one-support product support simplifies maintenance, standardizes after-sales service, and accelerates repair response times, reducing downtime and lowering operating costs. With flexible customization options, the complete solution meets diverse needs, offering customers long-term performance and cost savings.
