Expanding its global presence, Sarasota-based Cruise Car Inc. has won a contract to supply Disney Hong Kong with its custom-built, low-speed vehicles. The contract, which was approved this week by the Hong Kong Transportation Department, is the first time the company has sold directly to Disney. Past Cruise Car contracts have been through Disney’s vendors.

Golf-cart type low-speed vehicles are currently capped in Hong Kong at about 500 units, which required the need for the Hong Kong DOT to approve a license to bring in additional vehicles. Cruise Car worked closely with Disney Hong Kong’s management team and Hong Kong authorities to obtain this approval. After meeting in Sarasota with the Hong Kong-based engineering team, a formal purchase order was issued with a multi-year opportunity for Cruise Car to ultimately replace a 60-vehicle fleet.

Cruise Cars are currently in use at over 1,000 flagship properties worldwide.
