A Lamborghini built golf cart A golf cart or golf buggy (officially referred to as a golf car according to ANSI standard z130.1, since "carts" are not self-propelled. [1]) is a small vehicle designed originally to carry two golfers and their golf clubs around a golf course with less effort than the traditional method of walking. Golf cars come in a wide assortment of colors. There is a large market for aftermarket golf cars parts from many companies. There are 3 main manufacturers of golf cars: Club Car, E-Z-GO, and Yamaha. Each have their own lines of aftermarket parts to enhance off road capabilities, such as lift kits, larger tires with aggressive tread patterns. From third parties, there are also kits available that facilitate the installation of a larger engine, such as a Honda 24 HP V-Twin engine or a Briggs & Stratton engine ranging in sizes from 16-31HP. Golf cars are capable of much higher speeds with modifications. For liability reasons, this is not sanctioned by the original manufacturers. There are also parts made to help in towing, such as hitch mounts, cargo boxes, radios, high-performance mufflers and air filters, high speed or torque gear sets, and custom paint/decal sets. There is even a "Hummer" golf car available from many dealers for around $25, 000.00 US dollars. Contents 1 History 2 Golf Cart communities 3 See also 4
