This Amazon Golf Cart Fits 4 People and Goes 20 MPH

What says summer more than cruising around a beach town in a golf cart? If you frequent some of Florida’s communities or islands like Amelia, Anna Maria, and Captiva, where open-air low-speed vehicles (LSVs) seem to outnumber actual cars, you know this freeing feeling. Golf carts are not just legal to drive in parts of the Sunshine State, but they’re actually encouraged. The state’s Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles says as long as they stay off the highways, golf carts provide a “great way to enjoy local communities and natural spaces.”

Some other locales across the U.S. are adopting this laid-back mindset and welcoming these “vehicles” on the streets: Highland, Utah; Monroe, Michigan; and Shelbyville, Indiana, are just a few places where golf carts are newly street-legal as of 2025. This summer, in addition to perfecting your beach packing list, why not get your own set of wheels? Cruise the neighborhood, take it to the campground, or bring it on your beach vacation (check the LSV laws, obviously)—we’ll save you a trip to the dealership with this golf cart we found at Amazon. 

Kandi America Electric 4-person Golf Cart

Adding to the list of strange and unexpected things you can buy at Amazon (including entire homes), this electric-powered golf cart comes from Dallas-headquartered off-road recreational vehicle seller Kandi America and is just over $8,000. That’s on the lower end of the pricing spectrum, as new models can cost, on average, as much as $15,000 to $20,000. 

The cart seats four, thanks to the inclusion of a rear bench, and the hard-shell roof extends over the back to keep all passengers dry and shaded. It comes equipped with electric power steering and a backup camera that connects to the seven-inch LCD screen to make it easy to maneuver—you don’t want to end up on one of those “golf cart fail” compilations. The cart reaches a full charge in 6.5 hours, and it doesn’t need any special plug-ins—it’s compatible with a 120-volt outlet, which is the standard outlet in the U.S.

Fully charged, the 5,000-watt motor should be good for about 28 miles. If you were to drive only at its top speed—20 mph—you’d be able to go for almost an hour and a half without needing to charge.

Kandi America Electric 4-person Golf Cart

Reviewers love how much quieter the electric motor is than gas-powered carts, which is an especially important feature in campgrounds. They’re impressed with the suspension and that it sits higher off the ground than other models, claiming it “rides like a Jeep” out on the trails. “It’s loaded up with incredible features, and the design is fantastic,” one wrote, deeming it a “head-turner.” There’s an even more jazzed-up version with a 28-inch soundbar and LED lighting system for an extra fee.

In case you’re wondering how your regular Amazon delivery driver will get this 1,500-pound package off the truck, the brand assures the cart will come to you via freight, and you can choose your own delivery time. In terms of brand reputation (because buying any vehicle on the internet raises questions), Kandi American is a well-known manufacturer you can find at Lowe’s and other big-name dealers.

Though it’s one of the more affordable golf carts we’ve found at Amazon, it’s surprisingly not the only option. We discovered alternatives ranging from a Kandi six-seater to a $14,000 solar-charging cart on sale for $11,000. Shop around for a fresh, new summer ride, below.

Kandi America 6-seat Electric Golf Cart

For families and bigger groups, this six-seater version of the Kandi America golf cart might be more practical. It has most of the same features as the four-seater, but with an extra row of seats and a bit more range (37 miles on a single charge, the brand says). Despite the larger size, it still plugs into a normal electrical outlet.

Viplay Electric Golf Cart With Solar Charging

Going for 56 miles on a charge, this is the cart with the highest range that we found at Amazon. The luxe cruiser has a slightly higher-powered 51.2-volt lithium battery and a 400-watt solar panel on the roof, which alone can charge the battery from zero percent to full in 48 hours. High-tech amenities include the 10-inch LCD screen, Bluetooth, and Apple AirPlay.

At the time of publishing, the price started at $8,099.
