Golf Cart Battery Market Size

The global golf cart battery market was valued at USD 149.9 million in 2024 and is expected to witness a CAGR of 5.4% from 2025 to 2034. Steady increase in the adoption of electric golf carts, driven by their environmental benefits and cost efficiency compared to gas-powered models. Many golf courses, resorts, and even residential communities are transitioning to electric golf carts to reduce emissions and operating costs.
 

Golf Cart Battery Market

Golf carts are increasingly adopting lithium-ion batteries, due to their superior energy density, extended cycle life, and the rising shift towards eco-friendly technologies. Stricter government regulations targeting carbon emission reductions, and the promotion of cleaner technologies are accelerating the shift towards electric vehicles, golf carts included. For instance, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has implemented stringent emission standards to reduce greenhouse gases, which encourages the adoption of electric vehicles. Such governmental initiatives are motivating both golf course operators and individual consumers to invest in electric golf carts, subsequently boosting battery demand.
 

Golf Cart Battery Market Trends

Increasing integration of smart technologies in golf carts (such as GPS, Bluetooth connectivity, and advanced battery management systems) requires more advanced and reliable batteries. As battery prices continue to fall and their energy capacity increases, lithium-ion batteries are expected to continue their dominance in the golf cart industry. Their ability to support longer run times with less frequent charging is making them more attractive to users. Upsurge in the adoption of golf carts for short-distance travel in non-golf environments is contributing to the growth in demand for golf cart batteries. As these carts are used in more diverse settings, reliable and long-lasting batteries are required.
