Home Run – SR-1 single rider cart and personal transport vehicle (PTV)
The SR-1 single rider golf cart and personal transport vehicle was unveiled to an audience of industry professionals who were eager to get their first look at the stunning design and latest technologies.
Operators were keenly interested to learn how the SR-1 impacts operator revenue by increasing pace of play so they can accommodate more rounds generating more revenue, and the unique revenue share business model that does not require an upfront capital investment or financing commitment. They were also impressed with the integrated GPS Fleet Management System that protects their course with geo-fencing, security lockdown, battery monitoring and pace of play alerts etc.
Constructed with ultra-strong, light-weight composite materials and aircraft grade aluminum frame the SR-1 is considerably lighter than a traditional cart carrying 2 people, so it is much easier on course wear and tear. With a low center of gravity, built-in stability control systems, pedestrian alert systems, auto park brake system, and an exceptional turning radius, the SR-1 is sure footed and a blast to drive.
The SR1 employs Artificial Intelligence-checking its own health. Constantly monitoring battery state of charge, tire pressures, engine temperature, analysing usage, aggressive stops, impacts, abuse, and potentially dangerous operation trigger different in cart audio recommendations, warnings, and commands.
The golfer experience on the interior is just as impressive featuring advanced technology and connectivity. A unique in steering wheel HD display screen conveys critical course information such as 3D hole Flyovers, distance to the pin, cart look ahead feature with distance to the players in front for safety, wireless phone charging, built-in Bluetooth speakers, 2-way messaging with clubhouse, scoring, 6-way adjustable seat, and F&B ordering are just some of the standard features.
Finally, the SR-1 is a marketer’s dream. The programmatic advertising delivers timely direct messaging to the HD screen, an industry first LED enabled front hood can also be configured with unique messages or statements, and the SR-1 can be wrapped or branded for opportunities with suppliers or sponsors.
The SR-1 has the style and technical enhancements that appeal to the next generation of golfers, and a low barrier to entry for the course operator with immediate revenue generating capabilities. It truly is a “game changer”.
The SR-1 attracted the immediate attention of a 5 Star Major Resort operator, private and public golf courses, management companies, gated community personnel, and numerous dealer interest from around the world submitting inquiries.
