Think I got it right, but I get a strange java.lang.IllegalArgument exception....

public boolean isBatteryEmpty() { barCount == 0; }

GoKart.java 
class GoKart {
  public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
  private String color;
  private int barCount;

  public GoKart(String color) {
    this.color = color;
  }

  public String getColor() {
    return color;
  }

  public void charge() {
    barCount = MAX_BARS;
  }

  public boolean isBatteryEmpty() {
    barCount == 0;
  }
}
