A classic electric car is a hospitality vehicle. It is bought for the arrival photograph, the wedding procession and the heritage precinct tour — and it still has to start every morning, climb a ramp and stop safely with a full load.
The bodies are period-styled with modern electrical systems underneath: sealed controllers, lithium or lead-acid packs, hydraulic brakes and LED lighting hidden behind classic lamp housings. Buyers should confirm the visual details that matter to their property — paint, brightwork, roof colour and seating trim — at the sample or rendering stage.
These vehicles are usually low-speed and site-specific. Confirm local registration and road-use rules before ordering; most are used on private drives, hotel grounds and closed precincts.

The questions that decide the order.
Can a classic car be road-registered?
Registration depends on the destination market and the vehicle category. Many classic electric cars are used only on private property. We provide technical documents for the application, but homologation and road-use approval are market-specific.
How fast does it go?
Classic models are governed for hospitality use, typically at low site speeds. The exact limit is set on the order sheet; if the vehicle must mix with traffic, confirm the local speed and registration requirements first.
Can we match our hotel colours?
Yes. Body paint, roof colour, seat material and brightwork can be specified. Send colour references or samples; a rendering or physical swatch is confirmed before production.
What is the lead time for a custom classic?
Custom paint and trim add production time. Lead time is confirmed on the order and depends on the body style, options and quantity. A schedule with the paint approval, inspection and dispatch dates is issued with the order confirmation.

A useful quotation needs three things: where the golf cart will run, how many people it carries, and where it ships. Send those and we will come back with a configuration sheet.
