The D5 Maverick 4 is Evolution’s lifted family cart. At $8,995 MSRP it’s $2-4k cheaper than the ICON i40L while delivering similar core features: lithium pack, 9-inch touchscreen, backup camera, sound bar, double-wishbone front suspension.

What you give up versus the i40L is top speed (19 mph vs ICON’s 25 mph), dealer network depth, and brand recognition. For a buyer who values raw spec-per-dollar over brand support, the Maverick wins.

Evolution now has two carts in this catalog: the Classic 4 Plus ($6,795 course-only) and the D5 Maverick 4 ($8,995 lifted). Classic for cheapest lithium 4-seater; Maverick when you want the lifted look.
