Solar powered golf cart, the Solar Ride is Cocoa Village’s newest attraction on road

The horse carriage rides in the Cocoa Village will now seem somewhat old and boring, probably because they’ll need to face the heat of the solar powered golf carts that will soon rumble down the streets of the shopping district. Let those horses retire in green pastures, while you tread around the village in these eco-friendly carts. Known as the Solar Ride, these six-seat, refurbished golf carts will shuttle shoppers from parking areas to shops and other spots of interest in the village. Also they use no sort of fossil fuel whatsoever, meaning no smelly carbons from tail pipes. Instead they soak in the sun and power up using solar panels. Using recycled materials of steel, vinyl, plywood and foam, this cart can travel up to 35 mph and was earlier rotting away at the Cape Canaveral Hospital, until it was given a $14,000 makeover by Extreme Custom Carts.

Just incase the sun doesn’t shine, and during the night time, the cart can be plugged in to charge up for the next day. We’d love to see some of these at golf courses and shopping complexes too!
