The Boydster golf cart is equipped with features like an [electric horn](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ace-classic-electric), functional headlights, custom seats and a battery charger for the fuel gauge turn signals. These features are just like the original Boydster, but souped-up for modern use on a [golf course](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goalf-robot-caddie-concept).
