Drafted with AI assistance; facts checked by Willy, OFERO Philippines against the sources listed below.

OFERO, which publishes this site, sells one 4-wheel model, the Ofero VELORA, but the examples here come from other brands. In those published examples, 4-wheelers seat 2 to 6 people and are rated for 300–500 kg where a load is listed; listed speeds are 30–31 km/h, and listed ranges run from 50 km to 65 km per charge.¹²³⁴ Measure your gate first: Yamaha lists its 4- and 6-seat electric golf cars at 1,200 mm wide and 3,230 mm or 4,085 mm long.³ None of these sources lists aircon, and NXT gives no watts for the TITAN’s solar roof.²

4-wheel layouts: buggy, six-passenger and utility

NXT files the TITAN under “4 Wheel E Bikes”,⁵ and GadgetMatch reported the Hatasu Buggy in March 2025 as the brand’s first 4-wheeler.⁶ The layouts (all types are compared in the types guide):

• Golf-cart or buggy type: open sides, a roof and a steering wheel (manibela). Unbox.ph reported that the Hatasu Buggy seats 2 or 3 under a polypropylene plastic roof and has a leather-wrapped steering wheel.¹ Yamaha’s electric golf cars seat 4 or 6, with a cover for shade and rain.³
• Six-passenger type: NXT’s TITAN page lists seating for up to 6 passengers, a solar roof and a backup camera.²
• Utility use: the Buggy has a lockable steel storage compartment at the back,¹⁶ and Walastech called it useful for small deliveries or carrying groceries.⁴ NXT says the TITAN’s 500 kg can be passengers, cargo or both.²
• Enclosed, car-like type: some shoppers call this an “ebike car”, but none of the pages and reports used here lists a 4-wheeler with doors or side windows. If a seller offers one, ask for the dimensions, photos of the closed cabin and how it is ventilated.

Seats and rated load: from 2 seats to a 6 seater

Each source publishes different fields; “Not listed” means the source does not give the figure.

Reports differ on whether the Buggy’s 30 km/h is its top or average speed (top speed). The Yamaha figures come from its global page; its golf-car sales network lists a distributor in the Philippines but not which models it sells.¹⁷ Flooded batteries are a lead-acid type.¹⁵ Compare packs in watt-hours (how to read V, Ah and Wh).

Does the rated load include the driver?

Rated load is the weight the brand says the vehicle can carry. Walastech describes the Buggy’s 300 kg as room for a driver and additional cargo,⁴ and NXT counts passengers, cargo or both in the TITAN’s 500 kg.² NXT’s “up to 6 passengers” does not say whether the driver is one of them, so ask in writing.

Load matters on slopes too. Unbox.ph reported that the Buggy can handle inclines of up to 20 degrees, depending on load and road;¹ 20° is about a 36% grade (our calculation). See hills, passengers and cargo.

Solar panel and aircon: listed specs and limits

Roof

Check the height with the roof against your garage; Yamaha lists 1,785–1,795 mm.³ For what a roof does and does not cover, see ebike with roof.

Aircon

None of the brand pages and reports used here lists aircon. The closest is a mini fan on NXT’s Infinity V2 (Solar). NXT files it under “4 Wheel E Bikes”,⁵ but its own page calls it an electric trike.⁸ If a seller offers aircon, ask what powers it and the listed range with it on: the U.S. government’s fuel economy site says air conditioning’s effect on electric cars can be even larger, as a percentage, than on fuel cars.¹¹

Solar panel

NXT’s TITAN page describes integrated solar roofing but gives no panel rating.² The Infinity V2 (Solar) e-trike page lists a 160 W monocrystalline panel with an MPPT charge controller and a 60V/25Ah battery.⁸ A panel’s watt figure is its nominal peak rating under standard test conditions,⁹ and heat lowers a solar cell’s voltage.¹⁰

• At most 160 Wh an hour: even at the full 160 W, an hour of sun adds 160 Wh, about 11% of a 60V × 25Ah = 1,500 Wh pack (our calculation).
• Plan to plug in: treat the panel as a top-up (how to charge an ebike).
• Ask in writing: the panel’s watts, what it charges, and whether the warranty covers it.

Top speed: what brand pages list

Unbox.ph reported a 30 km/h top speed for the Buggy,¹ while GadgetMatch and The Manila Times call 30 km/h its average speed,⁶⁷ so ask which it is. Yamaha lists a driving speed of 0–31 km/h for both golf cars,³ and NXT’s TITAN page gives no top speed.²

Where they fit: short local trips, gates and garages

Listed ranges of 50–65 km per charge⁴² suit short local trips. Walastech reported that the Buggy was designed for city commutes and short-distance travel, with a compact design for narrow streets.⁴ NXT pitches the TITAN for group outings, family adventures or commercial transport,² and Yamaha calls its golf cars a tool for moving between facilities.³ Inside a subdivision, resort or campus, ask the management about its vehicle rules first.

Gate, garage and turning space

Yamaha lists its 4-seater at 3,230 mm long and its 6-seater at 4,085 mm, both 1,200 mm wide, with turning radii of 4.4 m and 5.7 m and weights of 556 kg and 635 kg with roof and batteries.³ The 6-seater is 855 mm longer but no wider (our calculation). For comparison, BEMAC lists its 68VM passenger e-trike, which seats 6 plus the driver, at 1,440 mm wide.¹⁶ The Hatasu reports and NXT’s TITAN page used here give no dimensions, so ask for them in writing. Measure your gate at its narrowest point, such as the hinges or latch: for these golf cars it must be wider than 1,200 mm.

What to check before choosing a 4-wheel ebike

1. Size: length, width and height against your gate and garage (gate check).
2. Seats and load: the seat count and rated load in writing, and whether both include the driver.
3. Top speed: the maximum in km/h, not an average (LTO classes).
4. Battery and charging: chemistry, V and Ah, and the full charge time; NXT lists 6–8 hours for the TITAN.² Use a charger that matches the pack (charger match) and follow the battery safety steps.
5. Brakes: GadgetMatch reported a dual-braking system on the Buggy,⁶ with a foot brake and a hand brake to assist with parking, especially on slopes.⁷ Ask which wheels have brakes (Yamaha lists a mechanical drum brake on each rear wheel of both golf cars),³ and try the parking brake on a slope.
6. Seat belts: none of the pages and reports used here mentions them. The World Health Organization says wearing a seat belt can reduce the risk of death among vehicle occupants by up to 50%.¹⁴ Ask whether every seat has a belt.
7. Reversing and handholds: NXT lists a backup camera on the TITAN,² and GadgetMatch reported grab bars on both sides of the Buggy.⁶
8. Warranty: get the terms for the battery, motor, controller, charger and any solar panel in writing (what a warranty must state).
