What a used Star EV Sirius is worth
A clean Star EV Sirius typically sells privately for R55 000 – R110 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 Sirius:
- Lithium 2- or 4-seater (2020+): R55 000 – R110 000 (e.g. Excar, HDK, LVTong, ICON, Evolution) — factory lithium holds value
What we check on a Sirius
Every Star EV Sirius we buy gets the same look in the photos, plus the things that matter on this particular model:
- Lithium and low hours are the main price drivers.
- Check the lights, mirrors and seatbelts — the LSV kit is part of the value.
- Battery type and age — the single biggest factor. A dated invoice or a photo of the date stamp helps.
- Body, seats and canopy — cracks, sun damage and torn seats all cost money to put right.
Selling your Sirius: how it works
Here's how it works: you send photos and answer a short form; we reply with a firm written offer within 24 hours; if you're happy, you accept and sign on your phone and pick a two-hour collection window. On the day we check the cart matches the photos, load it, and pay by EFT before we drive away.
We collect anywhere in South Africa with our own transport, and because we refurbish and resell carts ourselves, a Sirius that needs batteries or a clean-up is still worth real money to us.

Questions sellers ask
How much is a Star EV Sirius worth?
Typically R55 000 – R110 000 for a private sale in South Africa, depending on year, power (lead-acid or lithium), seats and condition. Lithium and low hours are the main price drivers. Send photos for an exact written offer within 24 hours.
Do you buy a Sirius that isn't running?
Yes. Dead batteries, charger faults, controller problems — we buy Siriuss in any condition and the offer simply reflects the repair. Photograph the battery pack and tell us what's wrong.
Is a lithium Sirius worth more?
Yes — factory lithium (or a documented conversion) is the single biggest value driver on a Sirius. It can be worth a third more than the same cart on lead-acid, because the next owner isn't facing a new pack.
Do you buy golf carts that aren't running?
Yes. Dead batteries, a faulty charger, a controller fault, a cart that has stood for two years — we buy all of them. The offer simply reflects the repair cost. Tell us what's wrong in the form and photograph the battery pack; that's usually all we need.
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.
