Club Car, a prominent segment of Ingersoll Rand, has been a leader in the development of golf carts and utility vehicles for over 60 years. Established in 1958 in Houston, Texas, and later moving to Augusta, Georgia, the company started by creating the first golf car with a steering wheel and has since expanded to produce a wide range of personal and commercial utility vehicles. Notably, its flagship model, the Club Car DS, gained fame for its durability and is a staple in golf courses worldwide.
The company prides itself on its commitment to superior performance and exceptional customer service. With a robust distribution network of over 350 dealers globally, Club Car ensures that its customers have reliable access to its high-quality vehicles. Known as the official golf car of the PGA of America and featured in prestigious tournaments such as the Ryder Cup, Club Car has cemented its reputation within the golfing community.
In the 1990s, Club Car innovated further with advanced technologies, introducing features such as the armor-flex body that enhances vehicle longevity and resale value. The introduction of electric and lithium battery-powered carts has also positioned Club Car at the forefront of eco-friendly personal transport solutions.
Moreover, Club Car's commitment to its community reflects in its support for initiatives like US Kids Golf and the First Tee, focusing on youth development in golf. Throughout its history, Club Car has undergone several ownership transitions, with its most recent acquisition by Platinum Equity in 2021. Today, the company continues to lead the market by producing vehicles designed for comfort, functionality, and environmental efficiency.
