Default Are Black Seats Hot?

Thanks to the feedback I've received on this forum, I've decided to move towards a Lithium Onward. I'm thinking about going black on black or maybe black with black/grey two tone seats. I live in Florida so it can obviously get nice and hot. I know with a car, black seats can get awfully hot. Do golf carts have the same issue? The last thing I want is to constantly burn my bum when playing golf in the summer.

I like the look of black two-tone seats on some carts. To me it's worth the hassle of keeping a towel to use on those scorching hot days. Especially if you are wearing shorts.

My 2 cents.

The one without the roof can get really hot.

Im in GA and my black lawn tractor seat gets so hot I cant sit on it wearing shorts. I have to park in shade when Im off it or put a towel over it.

Maybe grab a set of cloth seat covers ?

As an experiment, try checking black upholstery contrasted to a light color like white right next to each other in the sun. We chose the light gray over black for our jet boat and white for the golf cart and glad we did :-).

I play a heck of a lot of golf but never really thought about the color of seats. They're probably not black for a reason. Duh on my part. I think I'll go with white seats with my black onward. I was just worried about the white showing wear more quickly but I guess I'll take that over my bum getting burnt.

Thinking about this more, maybe grey would be a good compromise.

You are correct. White shows everything. Impossible to keep neat looking. I'm pretty sure that's why most carts have tan, beige, etc. from the factory.

It's brutal here. Lots of my customers find relief by carrying around a towel to sit on if the seats get hot.
