October 8, 2023Do Golf Carts Have Titles?
November 27, 2023EZGO golf carts are known for being reliable and versatile, but figuring out the year they were made can be confusing. In this blog post, we will assist you in determining the year of your EZGO golf cart.
How to Identify the Year of Your EZGO Golf Cart?
Serial Number Decoding
To determine the age of your EZGO, you can refer to its serial number, also known as the VIN. Locate the serial number, often found on the frame, under the seat, or in the glove compartment.
The serial number typically consists of both letters and numbers. EZGO serial numbers can be somewhat cryptic, but the first two characters often indicate the model year if your golf cart was made from 1976-1978. If your cart was manufactured from 1979 and up, the last two numbers are the model year.
For Example:
- If the last two numbers of your EZ-GO serial number are “19”, you own a 2019 EZGO.
- If the first two numbers of your EZ-GO serial number are “77”, you own a 1977 EZGO.
EZGO Serial Number Lookup
If decoding the serial number proves challenging, EZGO provides resources like online databases, customer support, or manuals that offer comprehensive information on interpreting serial numbers for different model years. Utilize these resources to ensure accuracy.
If you have a 2022 EZGO Liberty, pull out your owner’s manual and flip to page 9. It gives clear instructions on where to find the vehicle identification number. Here is a database of all the EZGO manuals to find your VIN.
It can be frustrating because there is no standard placement for where the serial number is located. For example, here is a 2020 EZGO TXT, and the serial number is in a different location than the 2022 EZGO Liberty.
Common Challenges and Tips:
- Wear and Tear: Over time, serial number plates may become damaged or worn. If this is the case, consider consulting professional services that specialize in EZGO golf cart identification.
- Model Changes: Be aware that model changes or upgrades might alter the location or format of the serial number. Refer to your EZGO manual or reach out to us for guidance on where to find the serial number on your specific model.
