You're right, this is a PR stunt that Volkswagen should have jumped on long ago.
Unveiled for this weekend's Open tournament at the Royal Troon golf club in Scotland, this is Mercedes-Benz's very own Golf Buggy.
Just look at it
Titled the "Real Sports Car", the buggy's features list is enough to make the average road car green with envy: there's a touchscreen dash display, that gives information on the cart's energy output and a full map of your chosen course, and a fridge under the seats to quench your thirst by the time you hit the back nine.
The little details matter too
Helping you stay ahead of the pack, on the 10.1-inch touchscreen you'll be able to keep tabs on your game as it displays both a course map and scorecard.
And, come the first tee, if your clubs are anywhere near as sleek as the furnishings inside this cart we're sure you really will have the drive of your life.

It's got driving range
And yes, being a Mercedes, it's no slow coach. Capable of a top speed of 19 miles per hour, this electric buggy can travel 50 miles on a single charge. Check out its moves in the promo below.
