Does John Deere make a golf cart?

No, John Deere does not make or sell a golf cart. What John Deere does build is the Gator utility vehicle line, and most Customers who search for a "John Deere golf cart" or "Gator golf cart" are really looking for a small, quiet vehicle that is easy to drive around a property. For that, the John Deere Electric Gators are what we carry at our stores across Indiana and Ohio.

How a Gator differs from a golf cart

A Gator is a utility vehicle, not a golf car. Every Gator comes with a cargo box, so it is built to haul feed, mulch, tools and firewood as well as carry people. If your main job is moving between the house, the barn and the back of the property, a Gator does that and also gets work done along the way.

The electric Gators that come closest

If "quiet and simple" is what drew you to the idea of a golf cart, the electric Gators are the models to look at. They run on battery power, so there is no engine noise and zero tailpipe emissions, which makes them a good fit for work near homes, barns and people.

  • GX Electric Utility Vehicle: a 51.2-volt lithium-ion battery, an LED charge-level indicator and a large, versatile cargo box.
  • GX Crew Electric Utility Vehicle: the same battery and charge indicator, plus seating for four people with reconfigurable seats for extra storage. This is the one to consider if carrying passengers matters most.
  • TE 4x2 Electric Utility Vehicle: part of the Work Series, with an electric motor, on-board charging, an external LED battery indicator and a large cargo box.

How to pick the right one

  1. Decide how many people you need to carry. The GX Crew seats four with reconfigurable seats; check the GX and TE 4x2 model pages for their seating.
  2. Think about what you will haul. All three have a cargo box, so look at the box size that fits your loads.
  3. Consider where you will drive it. If the vehicle will run close to the house or around livestock, the quiet electric models are a better neighbor than a gas or diesel Gator. If you need to tow heavy loads or cover rough ground all day, our gas vs. diesel Gator guide will help you decide whether an engine-powered model makes more sense.
