I have. They're sold out of a car dealership in my town. They're a nice rugged golf cart but in my opinion they are really stretching to say they are capable of "tough terrain". They're very narrow, solid axels, have just a basic spring & shock suspension, and a very simple flat chassis that doesn't resist twisting or buckling. Very little ground clearance due to the differentials.
On the plus side, electric motors have instant torque and if these are geared right you get neck-snapping take-offs and good hill climbing capability.
If I were retired in Florida I'd sure rather drive this than a Club Car

From what I could tell from the pics on the web site it looked like you said a hopped up golf cart. Looks like it would get the electric motors wet and full of mud and not last long it was going through some nasty mud holes. Not real deep just wet.

I used to take my 6" lifted EZ Go through everything I've taken my Rhino through. I had it in at least 12" of mud one time and it just kept on going. I wouldn't really worry about the water but I can't imagine the top speed on that thing is very high. I looked all over the site but never found it.

I would say about 15 mph, unless they regeared it,
my 48 volt club car did 15mph
