The GEM e2, e4, e6, eS, eL, and eL XD models, produced in 2009, are a series of compact, electric-powered neighborhood vehicles (NEVs) manufactured by Global Electric Motorcars (GEM). These vehicles were designed for low-speed use in residential communities, golf courses, and other private properties. Their compact size, maneuverability, and environmental friendliness made them popular choices for short-distance transportation, eliminating the need for traditional gasoline-powered vehicles in specific environments.
The GEMs featured a lightweight, open-air design with a fiberglass body and a simple, robust electric drivetrain. They were equipped with a lead-acid battery pack that provided a range of up to 40 miles on a single charge. The vehicles were powered by a DC electric motor that delivered a top speed of 25 miles per hour. While the different models offered variations in seating capacity and features, they shared the same core design principles. The e2 was the most basic model, with seating for two, while the e6 offered seating for six. The eS featured a street-legal package, allowing it to be driven on public roads with a maximum speed of 25 mph. The eL models were equipped with enhanced features like larger batteries, longer range, and improved comfort. The eL XD, a premium version, included a top speed of 35 mph and other luxury amenities.
