Queen Elizabethreportedly has a new ride!
The monarch, 95, has received a top-of-the-line golf cart to help her around, according to reports.
Queen Elizabethobtained the golf cart about two weeks ago, according to theDailyMail. The battery-powered vehicle can reportedly travel up to 43 mph and can go 50 miles before requiring a recharge and features four brown-leather reclining seats, perThe Sun.
The special new cart also supposedly comes with 14-inch alloy wheels, a heated windshield, “weather enclosure” doors, cup holders, a mini-fridge, Bluetooth speakers, and a 10.1-inch screen next to the steering wheel.

A source toldThe Sunearlier this week that “the cart is perfect” forQueen Elizabeth, who they said has “battled stiffness in her legs recently.”
“She’s been through a lot of physical battles recently with Covid and her back sprain, which would take its toll on anyone — let alone someone who turns 96 next month,” the source said, later adding that everyone believes the cart is “a great idea.”
Queen Elizabeth has experienced some mobility issues in recent weeks, including at Tuesday’smemorial serviceat Westminster Abbey in honor of her later husbandPrince Philip, who died last April at the age of 99.
Her Majesty arrived at the event on the arm of her son Prince Andrew, which royal commentator Robert Jobson said “she insisted” upon.

The Queen, who will celebrate her 96th birthday in April,appeared to have difficulty movingaround during a February appearance at Windsor Castle. During the in-person meeting, she quipped to her guests while gesturing down at her cane, “Well, as you can see, I can’t move!”
In October 2021,Queen Elizabethalso used a walking stick for a Service of Thanksgiving at Westminster Abbey. It was the first time she used a cane publicly since 2003 after she underwent knee surgery.
