1998 EZGO Golf Cart Value — What Is a 1998 EZ-GO Worth?

A 1998 EZGO golf cart is typically worth about $900–$4,000, depending on model (TXT or Medalist), condition, battery age, and upgrades. Metal-body Medalists and project carts sit at the low end, while reconditioned TXTs with fresh batteries bring the most. Use the factors and resale table below to estimate what a specific 1998 EZ-GO is worth.

Factors That Affect 1998 EZGO Value

Model matters most for a 1998 EZ-GO. The plastic-body TXT (introduced in 1996) is newer, takes upgrades easily, and generally holds more value than the older metal-body Medalist that 1998 straddled. Confirm which one you have from the body panels and the serial number under the seat.

After the model, battery age and health drive value on electric carts more than anything else — a fresh pack can swing a cart by $800–$1,200. Then come overall condition (rust, tires, seats, brakes), power type, and upgrades like a lift kit, lithium conversion, or lights.

Keep in mind that values also fluctuate by region and season: carts bring more in golf-community and warm-weather markets, and demand (and prices) typically peak in spring and summer. Treat the ranges here as a national guide and check local listings to fine-tune.

Gas vs Electric 1998 EZGO Price Difference

On an electric 1998 EZ-GO, value hinges on the battery pack. A cart with a fresh set of six 6-volt batteries commands a premium, while one with a tired or dead pack drops to the low end because the buyer faces an $800–$1,200 replacement.

A gas 1998 EZ-GO sidesteps the battery question entirely, which appeals to buyers who want quick refueling and longer range — so good-running gas carts often sit at the upper end of the range. The trade-off is that engines need a proper inspection: check for a clean idle, no smoke, and no oil leaks before you value one highly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a 1998 EZGO golf cart worth?

A 1998 EZGO is typically worth $900–$4,000. Project or metal-body Medalist carts sit at the low end, good running TXTs on older batteries fall in the middle, and reconditioned TXTs with fresh batteries bring the most.

Does a 1998 EZGO with a dead battery pack have any value?

Yes — it still has value as a running-when-charged project or roller, usually toward the $900–$1,500 low end. Just subtract the cost of a new battery set (about $800–$1,200) from what a similar cart with a fresh pack would bring.

Are gas or electric 1998 EZGOs worth more?

It depends on condition. A gas 1998 EZ-GO avoids battery-replacement costs and often sits at the upper end, while an electric cart's value swings with its battery pack — high with a fresh set, low with a worn one.

How do I determine the value of a used EZGO golf cart?

Start with the model and year (check the serial number under the seat), then grade condition: battery age and health on electric carts, engine condition on gas, plus frame rust, tires, seats, brakes, and any upgrades. Compare against a condition-based price table like the one above, adjust for your region and season, and subtract the cost of any needed repairs — a worn battery pack alone is an $800–$1,200 deduction.
