The growth of the low-speed vehicle market is driven by factors such as the growing popularity of golf, the development of charging infrastructure, and the rising inclination of the geriatric population towards safer and more comfortable mobility like LSVs. Low-speed vehicles have many applications, including gated communities, resorts, college campuses, large industrial zones & IT hubs, amusement parks, historical monuments, airports, golf courses, etc. Another factor boosting the demand for low-speed vehicles is growth in the travel & tourism industry, commercial & industrial infrastructure growth, aviation investments, and manufacturing operations.

“Commercial vehicles hold the largest share of the low-speed vehicle market during the forecast period.

Commercial turf utility vehicles are primarily used for transport in hotels, resorts, and college campuses. The demand for these vehicles will likely increase with the growing luxury tourism. According to the latest World Tourism Barometer 2023, international tourism is expected to reach a pre-pandemic level by 2024, with a 2% growth after 2019. An estimated 1.28 billion tourists were recorded worldwide in 2023, a 34% increase compared to the previous year. A steady global travel recovery is expected as countries take measures to boost tourism. For example, in February 2023, the Hong Kong government announced offering 500,000 free round-trip airline tickets. Such initiatives will likely increase the demand for hotels, villas, and resorts and influence the hospitality industry to provide tourists with the best experiences and facilities. Further, developing electric commercial turf utility vehicles for applications such as hotels & resorts, and college campuses would drive the demand for LSVs. Most OEMs who develop electric LSVs for commercial purposes focus on using lithium-ion batteries for the extended driving range. Moreover, Commercial turf utility vehicles are a convenient mode of transportation for sightseeing in the vicinity. They can also be used as shuttles for public transit in IT and theme parks. Further, hotels and resorts are partnering with prominent companies to provide more opportunities for EVs inside their premises. Thus, the growing travel & tourism and hotel & resort industries will drive the demand for commercial utility vehicles.

Lithium-ion batteries are expected to be the most significant and fastest-growing battery type in the electric LSVs.

Lithium-ion batteries dominate the electric LSV market due to their superior features like extended travel range, efficient weight-to-performance ratio, minimal self-discharge, low maintenance, and eco-friendliness. With the decreasing prices of lithium-ion batteries, the OEMs are focusing on developing LSVs fitted with Lithium-ion batteries. Most golf carts and commercial utility vehicles are equipped with lithium-ion batteries to increase the driving range of LSVs. For instance, in 2023, the E-Z-GO launched a low-speed vehicle named Elite Lithium, which was equipped with a battery weighing 46 lbs, much lower than a lead-acid battery, which is around 328 lbs and uses 2.98 kWh of energy. The demand for lithium-ion batteries has increased as they reduce maintenance and vehicle running costs.

North America is estimated to be the dominant low-speed vehicle market.

The North American region has many golf courses, close to around 16,000, or 40% of the total golf courses worldwide. This demand for LSVs in North America can be attributed to the rising adoption of low-speed vehicles in golf courses, hotels, and resorts, coupled with the growing demand for these vehicles for personal mobility. Older citizens in the US prefer low-speed vehicles for short-range commutes. These vehicles are also considered neighborhood vehicles used to commute to gyms, malls, restaurants, schools, and other nearby places.

In North America, prominent industry leaders are dedicated to enhancing their offerings with luxurious features. Companies such as Club Car, Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd, and The Toro Company are investing in research and development to introduce advanced functionalities like connected vehicles and autonomous driving systems. These innovations are tailored for individuals over 40 who rely on these vehicles for daily travels to local destinations like malls, gyms, restaurants, and schools. Additionally, these low-speed vehicles (LSVs) serve purposes beyond personal commutes, being utilized for last-mile delivery services and rentals, facilitating convenient transportation for short distances and leisurely visits to tourist attractions. Thus, the growing demand for golf carts and the development of advanced low-speed vehicles is expected to drive the demand for LSVs in North America.
