Club Car has introduced the versatile new Precedent Stretch personal transportation vehicle(PTV). It combines unsurpassed power and durability with four forward-facing seats and 35 additional inches of legroom, for people who want to take the long view.

In the Precedent Stretch PTV, you don’t have to leave a friend or relative behind or sitting on a rear-facing seat.
“The vehicle’s automotive design fosters conversation, camaraderie and comfort. It delivers the most front and rear legroom of any four-passenger vehicle in its class,” product manager David Woodward said.
The Precedent Stretch PTV comes with a maximum speed of 15 mph or with Club Car’s 19-mph Private Use Speed Option, making it ideal for neighborhood transportation.
Many small four-passenger vehicles are simply traditional golf cars that have been extended by a third-party provider, often putting the OEM warranty at risk. The Precedent Stretch PTV was designed to carry the additional length and weight.
The car is equipped with 10 percent more battery capacity, providing more range than competitive vehicles. The system features:
- A rugged 3.7-hp IQ Plus™ electric motor
- A 350-amp controller
- A heavy-duty solenoid
- Four-gauge battery wires
- Regenerative brakes that capture and store energy used during braking, extending the miles per charge
The Precedent Stretch PTV has a new charging system known as ERIC (Efficient. Reliable. Intelligent. Connected.).
“The solid-state, high-frequency system works globally, keeps charging even during voltage fluctuations, and outsmarts common user errors,” Woodward said.
ERIC issues audio and visual alerts to inform owners when charging begins, when the car is fully charged and of any problems with the charger. On-car dash lights alert you when the battery state of charge falls to 20 and then 10 percent charge so you don’t get stranded.
