Golf carts or ‘golf cars’ are powered by engines with electric or gas energy sources. They are made up of seats, a roof, four wheels, a steering wheel, and pedals. They can also be used for utility purposes, getting around the neighborhood, and leisure.
Golf carts are generally not allowed on the streets, but there are some models designed for road use and areas where they are allowed. Those that can be used on the streets have seat belts, brake lights, windshields, turn signals, brakes, and mirrors. They also have a speed limit of 15 to 35 miles per hour depending on the area.
Standard Golf Carts are block-type vehicles commonly painted white or off-white. They can seat two or four people. They are used for short-distance travel in and out of the golf course and for utility purposes in large industrial sites.
These types of golf carts look like small cars in design. They have body panels that imitate full-body cars. They can have custom wheels, accessories, and entertainment systems.
