London, England: Club Car has launched a new version of its best-selling Villager car.

Designed to transport six or eight passengers, the updated model builds on the Villager’s reputation for durability and performance, adding modern styling, superior ergonomics and enhanced amenities to move people in style and comfort.

“The Villager has long been one of our most popular cars and this new design makes it our most stylish and sophisticated transport vehicle yet,” said Pierre Lhernould, Head of Marketing EMEA at Club Car, an Executive Member of the Asian Golf Industry Federation.

“Club Car continues to raise the bar for innovation, providing vehicles for our customers which are not only reliable and durable, but sleek and aesthetically pleasing. The enhanced features to the Villager offer premium comfort and best-in-class manoeuvrability,” he added.

The Villager 6 can transform from a six-passenger vehicle to four with space for cargo thanks to its fold-down rear seat option, while the Villager 8 is the stretch limo of guest transportation, suitable for narrow areas not accessible to conventional vehicles.

The new model features refreshed automotive styling consistent with Club Car’s two and four-passenger vehicles. Its updated cowl is very similar to the Tempo model, another of Club Car’s best-sellers.

It is the only car in its class to have daytime-running LED headlights as standard, and brake lights, turn signals and a horn are also on every car for enhanced safety.

The design provides more space for operators and those on board, and the canopy has been updated to reduce noise and vibration. The canopy struts have also moved from aluminium to steel, adding more durability and stability over the life of the car.

Several custom options have been upgraded or added to provide more productivity, convenience or protection to the vehicle, such as USB charging points, cup holders and rain enclosures.

Both the Villager 6 and Villager 8 can be custom built, with a choice of body colour, seat colour and other options such as wheel type.
