Before you buy

Converting the Club Car Tempo / Onward factory lithium (2019 and newer): what's different

Tempo and Onward carts sold with a factory lithium battery are not conversion candidates: the battery and the controller talk to each other over a data link (CAN). Bolting in a generic lithium pack leaves the cart unable to drive or charge.

How to tell it's this one

  • No row of lead-acid batteries under the seat — one sealed lithium pack instead.
  • Sold from 2019 on Tempo and Onward.
  • Factory lithium charge receptacle and "smart" charger.

The battery bay

The factory pack sits in a tray designed for it. Replacements are model-specific packs that speak the cart's CAN protocol — sold by a few brands as "factory lithium replacement" kits, not as conversion kits.

Controller and charging

  • CAN communication between battery and controller is required.
  • The factory charger is matched to the factory pack.

What owners get wrong

  • If the factory pack is under warranty, contact a Club Car dealer first.
  • For an out-of-warranty pack, look for "Club Car factory lithium replacement" kits that state CAN compatibility.

“Brand lists this cart”: the brand's own finder, chart or product page names it. “Fits by size”: the pack is no larger than one documented to fit this cart (or than the measured bay) and no taller than the stock batteries. How we decide.
