A Mini Cart With a More Aggressive Personality
Meet the Cricket Locust Golf Cart
The Cricket Locust Golf Cart is based on Cricket’s SX3 platform, but it takes that smaller-cart idea in a much more rugged direction. Cricket’s current model pages describe the Locust as a compact mini golf cart built for off-road campgrounds, horse events, boat docks, and exploring rougher outdoor terrain, which immediately separates it from the smoother, more sidewalk-focused mini carts in the lineup.
At Mentor Golf Carts & Trailers, the Locust stands out for buyers who want a cart that is easier to store and transport than a full-size model, but still has enough presence and capability to feel fun once it comes off the truck bed. It makes a lot of sense for campgrounds, race weekends, outdoor events, lake properties, and buyers who want a more adventurous version of the mini-cart idea.
Built for Buyers Who Want to Bring the Cart With Them
The Cricket Locust Golf Cart Fits the Kind of Life a Full-Size Cart Cannot
A lot of golf carts are easy to enjoy once they are already where you need them. The Cricket Locust Golf Cart is appealing because getting it there is part of the point. Cricket repeatedly emphasizes that the Locust still fits in a truck bed, which means it works well for buyers who want to bring a cart to campgrounds, horse events, tracks, boat docks, and outdoor destinations without hauling a full-size setup behind them.
That is what makes the Locust so easy to picture in real life. It is not meant to replace every full-size golf cart on the market. It is meant to give the right buyer something easier to store, easier to haul, and easier to enjoy in places where portability matters almost as much as the ride itself.
Compact Does Not Mean Tame
The Cricket Locust Golf Cart Brings Real Off-Road Energy to a Smaller Footprint
Current Cricket sales pages describe the Locust as a more rugged mini cart with 18-inch wheels, speeds around 14-17 mph, and enough terrain ability to handle rougher campground and outdoor use. The company also says AGM versions can travel about 15-20 miles and carry up to 800 pounds, while the lithium upgrade increases power and can raise range to around 25-30 miles.
Cricket’s Locust model pages also call out increased height and ground clearance, including over 10 inches from frame to ground, around 9 inches from the floorboard to the ground, and about 5 inches of motor clearance. That matters because it helps the Locust feel more genuinely ready for rougher paths and uneven surfaces than a smaller cart that only looks rugged in pictures.
The Transport Story Is What Makes It Different
The Cricket Locust Golf Cart Stands Out Because It Is Easy to Haul, Store, and Actually Use in More Places
The strongest feature story on the Cricket Locust Golf Cart is not just the jeep-style body or the larger wheels. It is the fact that it stays small enough to transport in a truck bed while still feeling like a tougher, more adventurous cart once it is unfolded and ready to go. Cricket positions that combination of compact portability and rough-terrain attitude as one of the main reasons people choose the Locust.
That matters because portability changes ownership. A cart that is easier to take with you gets used more often and in more places. For the right buyer, that is a much bigger advantage than simply owning a larger cart that never leaves home. The Locust makes a strong case for compact fun with fewer headaches attached.

A Rugged Mini Cart Should Still Feel Personal
Cricket Locust Color Options
Current Cricket direct-order pages show multiple Locust color choices, including options like Viper Blue, Candy Apple Red, Black, Daytona Red, and Silver on current shopping flows. That gives the Cricket Locust Golf Cart more personality than a one-look stock mini cart and makes it easier for buyers to build something that feels more tailored.
The finish helps push the final cart in the direction you want — more rugged, more playful, or more understated. For current availability and build options, our team can help you review what is in stock and what can be ordered.
A Brand That Understands Smaller Can Still Be More Useful
Why Choose Cricket?
Cricket makes a strong case for buyers who want a cart that is easier to transport, easier to store, and easier to use in places where a full-size golf cart feels like too much. Looking at the Locust and the broader Cricket lineup, the brand clearly leans into portability, event-friendly use, outdoor versatility, and custom-build personality instead of trying to compete directly with full-size cart brands on size alone.
For buyers at Mentor Golf Carts & Trailers, Cricket is appealing because the ownership story is specific. These carts are built for people who want flexibility, not just transportation. Cricket Mini Golf Carts’ sales pages also prominently advertise a 5-year bumper-to-bumper cart and battery warranty for carts purchased through that seller, though buyers should confirm exact warranty coverage with the selling dealer.
