What a used Evolution Forester 4 Plus is worth
A clean Evolution Forester 4 Plus typically sells privately for R55 000 – R180 000 in South Africa (updated 2026-09-01). Where yours sits in that range comes down to the battery, the seats and the hours — and, for this model, a few things specific to the Forester 4 Plus:
- Lithium 2- or 4-seater (2020+): R55 000 – R110 000 (e.g. Excar, HDK, LVTong, ICON, Evolution) — factory lithium holds value
- 6-seater / lifted / street kit: R90 000 – R180 000 (e.g. Any brand, 4+2 rear seat, lift kit, lights) — highest demand on estates
What we check on a Forester 4 Plus
Every Evolution Forester 4 Plus we buy gets the same look in the photos, plus the things that matter on this particular model:
- Tyre condition and the lift kit are what we check first.
- 2022+ Foresters hold value better than the early units.
- Charger, keys and manual — a working charger and both keys make the cart easier to resell, and our offer stronger.
- Extras — rear flip seat, lights, lift kit, sound system, enclosure. Tidy factory-style extras add real value.
Selling your Forester 4 Plus: how it works
The process is the same wherever you are: photos and a few details from your phone, a written offer within 24 hours, then accept, sign and book a collection slot online. We arrive with our own transport and pay by EFT before we drive away. No viewings, no time-wasters, no transport to arrange.
We collect anywhere in South Africa with our own transport, and because we refurbish and resell carts ourselves, a Forester 4 Plus that needs batteries or a clean-up is still worth real money to us.

Questions sellers ask
How much is an Evolution Forester 4 Plus worth?
Typically R55 000 – R180 000 for a private sale in South Africa, depending on year, power (lithium), seats and condition. Tyre condition and the lift kit are what we check first. Send photos for an exact written offer within 24 hours.
Do you buy a Forester 4 Plus that isn't running?
Yes. Dead batteries, charger faults, controller problems — we buy Forester 4 Pluss in any condition and the offer simply reflects the repair. Photograph the battery pack and tell us what's wrong.
Do you buy golf carts that aren't running?
We do. Non-runners are a big part of what we buy around South Africa, because we refurbish and resell carts ourselves. A cart with a tired lead-acid pack is still worth real money to us — the offer just allows for the new pack.
Is the offer really free, and do I have to accept it?
Yes and no. The offer is free and there's no obligation at all — it's a firm number, valid for seven days, and you can accept, counter or walk away. We'd rather you took our number to compare than felt pressured.
What do I need on the day of collection?
Your ID, the charger and keys, and the cart where we can load it. We check that it matches your photos, sign off the sale agreement you already signed on your phone, and pay by EFT before we drive away. If the cart lives behind a gate, let security know we're coming or send us a visitor code with your booking.
