In terms of volume, the personal use segment is expect- ed to expand at a CAGR of 5.7% over the forecast period share. The growth of this seg- ment is due to cost effective- ness of rented services provided by golf carts manufacturers. The powered golf carts product type segment is expected to domi- nate the market both in terms of value and volume throughout the forecast period.
