A Guide to Inspecting A Used Golf Cart: Key Steps and Tips

Before stepping onto the dealership lot, it's critical to determine what you want in a golf cart. Do you prefer gas or electric? What features are important to you? Defining your needs from the start streamlines the process and ensures that you end up with a golf cart that satisfies your specific requirements.

Inspecting the Exterior

When looking at used golf carts, begin by assessing the exterior for any signs of damage such as dents or rust. Make sure the tires are in good condition and all lights are functioning properly. Don’t overlook the canopy and seats – check for any tears or cracks.

Checking Mechanical Parts

Next, focus on the mechanical parts of the golf cart. This includes brakes, battery (in the case of an electric model), or the engine (for a gas model). If you hear unusual sounds during a test drive or notice anything that raises concerns, it might be worth having a professional mechanic inspect it.

Test Driving

A test drive can reveal much about how well a used golf cart operates. Pay attention to how smoothly it accelerates, brakes, and turns corners. Listen for strange noises. If something doesn't feel right during your test drive, it might be an indication of underlying issues.
