Lantana is a small Palm Beach County town of about 11,500 people sitting between Lake Worth and Hypoluxo along the Intracoastal. The town permits golf cart use in specific communities under town and county rules, making a cart a practical short-trip vehicle for residents in those areas. With one dealer right on North Dixie Highway and a fuller set of options a few miles north in Boynton Beach, most Lantana shoppers have reasonable access to sales, service, and rentals.
South Florida's coastal humidity is hard on lead-acid batteries, which typically last three to four years near the water before needing replacement. Lithium packs last eight to ten years and handle the heat better, which is why many local dealers push lithium-equipped inventory. Whether you are buying new, picking up a used cart, or just renting for a week, the sections below walk through what is available and what things typically cost.

The Lantana dealer: Prime Golf Cars on North Dixie Highway
Prime Golf Cars sits at 850 N Dixie Hwy and is part of a multi-location operation that also has stores in Riviera Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Miami, and Vero Beach. The Lantana location carries new carts from Club Car, ICON, Evolution, Bintelli, and Advanced EV, along with used inventory. New basic four-seat models typically run $8,000–$12,000; six-seat or lifted builds typically run $12,000–$18,000. The site mentions financing, so it is worth asking about terms when you visit.
Beyond sales, the dealer's website lists mobile repair, parts, batteries, and lithium conversions. A lithium conversion typically costs $2,000–$4,500 and makes particular sense in South Florida's climate.

More options nearby: Boynton Beach dealers
Because Lantana has only one listed dealer, it is worth knowing that Boynton Beach — just a few miles north — has three businesses in the directory. Beachside Golf Cars and Southern Golf Cars both focus on sales, while Larry's Golf Car DMV Services in Boynton Beach adds repair work to its dealer services, which can be useful if you need a cart registered or titled as an LSV.
Having multiple dealers within a short drive gives you room to compare inventory and pricing before committing. Used carts at dealers typically run $4,500–$9,000; off-lease fleet carts can start around $3,000. Annual service — fluid checks, battery maintenance, brake inspection — typically runs $150–$300 and is worth scheduling once a year regardless of where you bought the cart.
If your primary need is repair rather than purchase, Boynton Beach's Larry's Golf Car DMV Services handles both repairs and the DMV paperwork that comes with titling a cart as a street-legal vehicle. Controller and motor repairs typically run $300–$900 depending on the fault. The repair cost guide breaks down what different jobs typically run statewide.

Where you can drive a golf cart in Lantana
Lantana permits golf cart use in specific communities under town and Palm Beach County rules. A standard golf cart — not titled as an LSV — may only be driven on streets that have been locally designated for cart use, generally those posted at 30 mph or less, and only between sunrise and sunset. Drivers 18 and older must carry a valid ID; under Florida law that took effect in October 2023, anyone under 18 needs at least a learner's permit to operate a cart on a public road.
A low-speed vehicle (LSV) is a different category: it must be titled, registered, and insured like a car, but once it is, you can drive it on any road posted at 35 mph or less — which opens up considerably more of Lantana's street network. LSVs require headlights, turn signals, mirrors, seat belts, and a VIN. If you are unsure whether a cart you are looking at qualifies as an LSV, the guide below explains the distinction clearly.
For residents in Lantana's cart-friendly communities, a standard golf cart is often all that is needed for errands, beach runs, and getting around the neighborhood. For anyone who needs to cross busier roads or travel farther, an LSV or a street-legal conversion is the practical choice. Check with the Town of Lantana directly for the current list of designated cart streets before you buy. Florida golf cart laws
Batteries and maintenance in South Florida's climate
Coastal humidity and heat accelerate lead-acid battery degradation. Near the water in South Florida, a lead-acid pack typically lasts three to four years before capacity drops noticeably; a replacement pack typically runs $900–$1,800. Lithium packs last eight to ten years, handle heat better, charge faster, and weigh less — a meaningful advantage on a cart that is already near its weight limit with passengers. A lithium conversion typically runs $2,000–$4,500 installed.
Routine maintenance matters more in a humid coastal environment than it does inland. Salt air corrodes terminals, moisture works into connectors, and tires lose pressure faster in heat. An annual service visit — typically $150–$300 — catches small problems before they become expensive ones. Prime Golf Cars lists mobile service on its website, which can be convenient if your cart is not drivable. Call the Lantana location to confirm mobile availability in your area.
The lithium battery guide covers the full cost-benefit comparison if you are deciding whether to convert an existing cart or buy new with lithium already installed. For a broader look at repair pricing across Florida, the repair cost guide is a useful reference before you authorize any work.
