From its functionality to reliability, the GEM eS is extremely cost-effective and is much more economical than a gasoline-powered vehicle. In fact, it costs just pennies a day to operate! The GEM eS features six 12-volt flooded electrolyte batteries for a range of up to 35 miles on a charge and a 34" x 48" flat bed with a 330 pound cargo capacity.
