Sunrise sits in western Broward County with a population pushing 100,000, and golf carts show up in gated communities, HOA neighborhoods, and commercial properties throughout the city. The city permits cart use in specific communities under city and Broward County rules, so where you can legally drive depends heavily on your neighborhood and the streets your HOA or the city has designated.
South Florida's heat and humidity are hard on lead-acid batteries — expect roughly three to four years of useful life near the coast before capacity drops noticeably. Most local dealers now push lithium packs, which typically last eight to ten years and handle the climate better. If you're pricing a new cart, budget $8,000–$12,000 for a basic four-seater, $12,000–$18,000 for a lifted or six-seat model, and $18,000–$35,000 for a fully street-legal LSV.

Street-legal conversions and custom builds
PerformanceCartz lists street-legal LSV conversions as a specialty. Converting a standard golf cart to a low-speed vehicle (LSV) typically costs $2,500–$5,000 and requires adding seat belts, mirrors, turn signals, headlights, a windshield, and a VIN so the cart can be titled and insured. Once converted, an LSV can be driven on any road posted at 35 mph or less — a meaningful upgrade over a standard golf cart, which is limited to locally designated streets at 30 mph or under.
Custom work at PerformanceCartz extends beyond the legal conversion checklist. Their site highlights marine-grade wiring for weather resistance, custom switch panels, and a full range of body colors including metallics and pearls. Lithium battery upgrades are also available; a lithium pack typically runs $2,000–$4,500 and is a sensible investment in South Florida's climate given the shortened lead-acid lifespan.
For shoppers focused specifically on custom builds, Just Rite Custom Golf Carts in nearby Davie is another option worth checking. The custom builders guide covers what to ask a builder before committing to a project.

Where you can drive a golf cart in Sunrise
Sunrise permits golf cart use in specific communities under city and Broward County rules — not citywide on all streets. In practice, that means you need to confirm with your HOA or check with the city whether your neighborhood's streets are designated for cart travel. Standard Florida law allows golf carts only on streets designated by the local government, generally those posted at 30 mph or less, and only between sunrise and sunset unless the cart has proper lighting.
A titled and insured LSV faces fewer restrictions: it can travel on any road posted at 35 mph or less at any hour. That makes an LSV conversion worth considering if you plan to cross major roads or run errands beyond a single community. Florida law since October 2023 also requires anyone under 18 to hold at least a learner's permit to operate a golf cart on public roads; drivers 18 and older must carry a valid ID.
If you're unsure whether your cart qualifies as a golf cart or an LSV under Florida law, the guide below breaks down the legal definitions and what each classification means for registration, insurance, and where you can go.
Repairs and battery service near Sunrise
PerformanceCartz handles repairs in addition to sales, covering brands like E-Z-GO and Club Car. Typical annual service runs $150–$300 and covers battery checks, brake inspection, tire pressure, and fluid levels — worth doing every year in South Florida's climate. Controller or motor repairs generally run $300–$900 depending on the fault and the brand.
For dedicated repair and battery service, Davie Golf Cart Mobile Repair and Batteries in nearby Davie offers mobile service, which is convenient when a cart won't start and can't be trailered. A lead-acid battery pack replacement typically costs $900–$1,800; a lithium conversion runs $2,000–$4,500 and is increasingly the default recommendation for coastal Broward County given the three-to-four-year lead-acid lifespan in this climate.
Cutting Edge Golf Carts in Plantation also lists repairs. If you're comparing repair costs before authorizing work, the repair cost guide below explains what drives pricing on common jobs.
