A recent study conducted by the strategic consulting and market research firm BlueWeave Consulting revealed that the global golf cart market was worth USD 2 billion in 2021. The data yielded by the study projects the annual revenues of the market to reach USD 2.9 billion by the end of 2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the increasing number of golf courses in countries to promote this sport as a recreational activity. Furthermore, golf courses are attracting both private and public investment, which is directly influencing its popularity, and driving the overall market growth. Furthermore, expanding the application of golf carts in commercial facilities, such as at airports or hotels, as an effective transportation for short-distance travel, is also emerging as a major factor driving the market growth. Yet, the financial crisis facing the market participants is one of the major hindrances for its growth.
Rising Demand for Electric Golf Carts Driving the Market Growth
Electric golf carts are gaining huge popularity among golf players as well as their commercial users, owing to the benefits it offers over other types. Electric golf carts are able to travel up to 30 or 40 miles on one charge, depending on the model. Golf carts are usually used for just 5 to 10 miles per day on golf courses, which makes electric carts more efficient. Furthermore, electric golf carts are also noise-free, and vibration-free, which acts as a favorable factor for market growth.
Increasing Number of Golf Courses Propelling the Growth of the Golf Cart Market
The number of golf courses around the world is gradually increasing at a high rate. According to a report published in Golf Monthly 2019, there are around 40,000 golf courses in the world, 78% of which is highly concentrated in only 10 countries. The USA has around 16,752 golf courses, which is 43% of the total share while Europe has around 8,940 golf courses, which is 23% of the world’s total. With the increasing popularity of golf, private players are significantly investing in making new golf courses, which is anticipated to fuel the demand for golf carts during the forecast period.
