Based on a double ended helical rack-and-pinion design, this is a steering system once found only in high performance sports cars. We revised the steering ratio for a more nimble and responsive feel, put it in a stronger, die cast housing, and made it permanently greased with sealed bearings and no grease fittings on tie rod ends. Easy to drive, and even easier to maintain.

Reason 8: Exclusive Yamaha Genius2 PDA Diagnostics

No other golf car can make this claim. Because Yamaha uses higher quality parts, like sealed bearings, automotive grade tie rods and steering components, our chassis is virtually maintenance free! How much time did you spend on grease jobs last year? Wipe that number off the slate. Greasing golf cars is over.

Reason 12: Best Front & Rear Bumpers in the Industry

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

You know and we know: things happen out there. So we made our bumpers with thicker walls and textured surfaces to withstand mishaps and they're the same height front and rear. They release air on impact; in fact, they're 5 mph rated. And if worse comes to worst, you can replace them by removing only two bolts.


Reason 13: Battery Charger

Reason 17: Maintenance Free Cast Aluminum Brake Pedal

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

The cast aluminum brake pedal has no need for grease and makes no "drumming" sound when it's released, owing, of course, to the quality of parts surrounding it. It works with a single, Teflon coated cable that reduces the need for adjusting. It has an integrated 3-position parking brake; it's textured and positioned to provide comfortable operation for all drivers.

Reason 18: Comfortable, Contoured Seat Back

The cast-aluminum transaxle case is designed with integrated impact protection. You don't need a skid plate to fend off the hazards that come from underneath. Yamaha's hardened case can take care of itself!






Reason 21: New, Exciting Paint Colors

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

First Yamaha reformulated the paint to give it twice the weatherability and fade resistance. Yamaha then decided on seven lustrous colors, including four brilliant metallics. We then put on a two-part topcoat using automotive grade polyurethane finish and we then apply it robotically to give it a smooth, automotive grade finish that would be a credit to the finest European sports sedans.

Reason 22: Easy to Remove, Durable One Piece Floor Mat

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

The point was to make it easy to clean. So, Yamaha made it one piece, covering the floorboard and footrest area, and it’s made from rubber to provide cushioned comfort for the occupants.






Reason 23: Superior Quality Parts

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

Yamaha engineers decided early on that to end up with a truly great golf car, you have to begin with great parts. As luck would have it, we work for Yamaha!

Put enough superior parts together in exactly the right way, and voila, we have a superior golf car.

Reason 24: Factory Authorized Service

Just because we're setting you up with the most dependable, least maintenance intensive golf car in the business doesn't mean we won't be there for you. We have a network of factory authorized service technicians to make sure your service needs are met.




Reason 25: Color Matched Wheel, Seat, and Top

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

The wheel, the seat surface, and the ClimaGuard Top are all the same color, because we believe it's the little things that make a design a success. What's more, the wheel is color compatible with each of the three-wheel cover options and with all body colors.

Reason 26: Easy Grip Steering Wheel

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

It's not just that it's thick, contoured, and textured for easy gripping. It's not even that we integrated four tee holders, a scorecard holder, and a pencil holder into the design. It's the way we carefully positioned the pencil holder to avoid scratched wrists and torn golf gloves. That's what we mean by attention to detail.


Reason 27: EZ Removable Floorboard Access Panel

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

When you need to get at the brake or accelerator pedals, we make it easy for you. When the panel is in place, its integrated, high-quality pedal brushes keep debris and foreign objects and things like tees from falling through the cracks and gumming up the works.

Reason 28: Largest Bag Well / Bag Holder

Reason 36: Yamaha Built Motor Control Unit

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

If we're going to be the only manufacturer building our own motor control unit, then we figured we might as well make ours the most advanced in the industry. It communicates with the battery charger - also Yamaha built - and with the Yamaha Genius2 diagnostic and programming system. Its rollaway protection slows it down and lets you know if the brake isn't properly engaged, it ensures smooth starts to avoid turf damage, and its solid-state electronics include a microprocessor with high-efficiency switching. Golf cars don't come any smarter!


Reason 37: Most Responsible Turning Radius

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

We trimmed 50 centimeters off our turning radius. It's not the tightest turning radius in the industry, but we think it's the most responsible one. It's calculated to perform geometrically optimal tight turns that won't damage your turf.

Reason 38: Easy to Clean Cup Holders

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

You know that really gross stuff that collects in the bottom of cup holders? We don't have that! Our cup holders are built with drain holes that keep liquids and debris from accumulating. And they're removable, so cleaning them is a snap.


Reason 39: Improved Ground Clearance

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

That awful grinding sound under the car is the skid plate striking a high spot. It's heard less often with The Cruise, because we improved our ground clearance by 12% to ride right over the rough areas. That's one reason we don't need a skid plate.

Reason 40: Largest Contoured Seat in the Industry

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

Deep, supportive contours are intended to help hold occupants in place while the car is moving. Designed to accommodate occupants of all different heights and sizes, it's made of pure, supple foam bonded to a seamless, fabric backed vinyl cover, and the polypropylene seat base is strengthened with plated steel inserts. Won't sag or warp, stands up to repeated pressure washings, and remains the most comfortable seat in the business, despite daily abuse.


Reason 41: Easy to Maintain

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

Yamaha Golf cars powered by Trojan Deep Cycle Batteries are with HYDROLINK watering system. This HYDROLINK which is a Single Point watering system ensures quick and even filling of distilled water in all cells to the correct level precisely, prevents spillage and reduces time and labour cost in maintenance.

Reason 42: Large Comfortable Armrest

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

Exactly how important is an armrest? Depends on whether it's done right. Ours is strong, made of steel reinforced, glass-filled polypropylene. It's larger and wider than previous models, but it doesn't interfere with entry or exit. It's substantial enough to provide comfort and security for the occupants - and if that's not important, what is?


Reason 43: 25% Fewer Parts

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

In three years of developing it, we figured out how to build our golf car with fewer parts. In the bargain, we also got more reliability, easier maintenance, less weight, fewer things to go wrong - all you could hope for in a golf car. Call it "the magic of concurrent engineering".

Reason 44: Integrated Electrical Component Protection

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

Integrated water channels divert water away from the batteries and electrical connections. The battery box is designed to keep debris and dirt from entering the compartment from below. Key electrical components are high and to the rear for maximum moisture protection and minimum interaction with battery acid. And all components are sealed and have marine grade waterproof connectors. We're serious about protecting our electrical components. After all, without them, what do you have?


Reason 45: Regenerative Braking System

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

If the parking brake is not properly engaged, the car will slowly inch its way downhill while it sounds an audible alarm to notify you and let you catch it. It extends battery life and rounds per charge by converting the motor into a generator to recharge the battery while the car proceeds at a regulated speed down hills, slowly and safely. What could be better than a brake that thinks for itself?

Reason 46: IntelliPower System

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

With its advanced Yamaha built motor control unit and battery charger, its regenerative braking system, and its Genius2 motor control programming and diagnostics, the IntelliPower System is simply the smartest drive system ever built. Running a powerful 48-volt motor with full circle communication between all components, this system does everything but watch where it's going. We had to leave some fun for the driver, didn't we?


Reason 47: Automotive Style Dash

Yamaha golf cart, Yamaha golfcar, Yamaha electric car, Yamaha battery car, golf buggies

The auto industry spent a hundred years getting this right, so we put their principles to work for you. We gave it four cup holders to hold different size cups; a center storage area for wallets, cell phones, and personal items; six ball holders; six tee holders; and a big, easy to clean storage compartment on each side.
