Fair enough, although I’d argue getting around the neighborhood is easier on a narrow vehicle that can carry some cargo and doesn’t depend on batteries. A golf cart has all the downsides of a car in day to day use and it’s slower and exposed to the elements. It’s probably a Veblen good in this case.
My friends have one because they have a small baby and don’t want to use their scooters (small motorbikes) with her when going out. They don’t own a car. They can carry their shopping in it.
