The MadJax XSeries is going to turn heads, and the team behind it is going to make life easier for dealers.

Mar. 2, 2023

Tony Stewart knows a thing or two about getting behind the wheel of an elite vehicle. So when the NASCAR driver and team owner had the chance to partner with MadJax’s new MadJax XSeries, he wanted to see the goods.

When he did, he was impressed.

“It’s really the best of both worlds – it’s aesthetically pleasing and the craftmanship and quality of parts are second to none,” said Stewart, whose Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing (TSR) and 10-Time World of Outlaws (WoO) NOS Energy Sprint Car Series Champion Donny Schatz has partnered with XSeries for the 2023 season.

“As a racer, my expectation is to always get behind the wheel of a vehicle that has power and acceleration. The MadJax XSeries does not disappoint. There’s no comparison between the MadJax XSeries and anything else on the market – they’ve really moved the bar in a big way. When I’m on my property in Indiana, I need a golf car that I can rely on to handle the terrain and provide me a longer run time while not having to worry about constant maintenance. I’ve been waiting for a cart like the MadJax XSeries for a long time and I can say that it was well worth the wait. I hope to be able to show off the MadJax XSeries at the racetrack, on the course and on my property soon.”

That sounds good to the folks at MadJax and parent company Nivel. Long known as a leader in after-market parts and accessories, MadJax is jumping into the new vehicle market in a big way with the XSeries. It’s a journey that was decades in the making, with a fast acceleration over the past year. But Nivel has the people to pull that off.

“It really starts with the market,” says Donnie Jouppi, Nivel’s president of PTV. “Just over 12 months ago we stepped back and thought: what’s the next step for Nivel? What’s the market telling us?”

They looked at the past several years, the market earthquake of Covid, the shift to new vehicles and the significant influx of new brands to the market. “It really just makes a lot of sense to take the innovation of our engineers and roll it into a full-vehicle solution,” Jouppi said.

With this new solution comes something else – a laser focus on the needs of dealers. Before joining Nivel about a year-and-a-half ago, Jouppi was a dealer for more than a decade.

“I was able to bring a different perspective to the table in many cases,” he said. In particular, the perspective of the dealer. With the Nivel team on the case, a great technical product was already a given. They’ve also created a dealer program that’s attractive and builds a solid foundation.

“We can build great products,” Jouppi said. “We have an incredible engineering team. When it comes to the dealer side of the business, we saw an opportunity to differentiate by providing best-in-class dealer support.”

MadJax’s go-to market strategy for the XSeries is a dealer-first approach. That manifests itself in many different ways – everything from collateral to showroom displays to a dealer portal where dealers can seamlessly order XSeries golf cars and accessories, register warranties and download collateral such as brochures and tech manuals.

“Overall it’s how you support the dealer that will really drive the success,” he says. “At the end of the day, nothing happens until the dealer sells a vehicle.”

Jouppi reckons dealers will be able to sell plenty of these. The XSeries golf cars will incorporate many things that MadJax is already known for – the Storm body, the premium seats, the top-of-the-line suspension systems, the details that catch the eye. Dealers, he said, will be “able to put that vehicle on the floor that is a new vehicle, but also a custom vehicle – dealers can choose their body color, seating options, lift kit, tire and wheel combos and more.

“We have a lot of engineering capability within the business. We’re able to leverage all that knowledge and put it into one package.”

And then they’re going to help dealers sell that package. They’re committed to taking out the process’s friction points. “In many cases, what is extremely hard for us is absolutely the best thing to do for the customer,” Jouppi says. Even if it’s hard, they push to make it happen because that’s what best.

“We put the extra effort in to take those friction points out all along the way,” he says. “We’ll continue to do that. The driver of this, and I can’t stress this enough, is how to we support the dealers all the way from beginning to end.”

The result? More people getting the chance to drive absolute state-of-the-art golf cars. Take Tony Stewart’s word for it.

“I’ve had the opportunity to drive a variety of golf cart brands in my career, and the reliability and power the MadJax XSeries carts offer definitely set the brand apart,” he said. “Passion is such a huge part of everything we do, and we see that same type of passion in the team at Nivel and MadJax. It was a natural fit when we decided to work together this season as we have a lot of similar goals, mindset and approach.”

Madjax Xseries Golf Cart Brand Ready to Storm Winged Sprint Car Racing Scene

Madjax Xseries Golf Cart Brand Ready to Storm Winged Sprint Car Racing Scene

The MadJax XSeries golf cart brand has reached a sponsorship agreement with Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing (TSR) and 10-Time World of Outlaws (WoO) NOS Energy Sprint Car Series Champion Donny Schatz for the 2023 season.

Jan. 24, 2023

The MadJax XSeries golf cart, which was announced earlier this month, is a consumer geared recreational and secondary transportation option that will be sold via Nivel’s dealer partners across the United States. Industry leaders Nivel and MadJax will offer an edgy, stylish cart that is among the most eye-catching options on the market.

MadJax XSeries will partner with TSR and Schatz in an associate sponsorship role on the No. 15 entry. With a reputation of high-quality products and reliability, MadJax XSeries joins TSR with common goals and the expectation of high-performance effort.

“We couldn’t be more excited to partner with TSR and Donny Schatz as we bring our industry-changing consumer golf car, the MadJax XSeries, to market,” said Donnie Jouppi, President of Nivel’s PTV Division.

“We know the partnership will resonate strongly with our dealers and consumers across the nation. The high performance and comfortable MadJax XSeries golf cart, partnered with a 10X WoO Champion and an 11X Knoxville Nationals Champion, makes for a winning combination.”

Making its official debut at the PGA Show in Orlando, Fla., on January 25 – 27, the MadJax XSeries golf cart has begun to hit dealer lots across the country. Available in 12 body colors and offering a wide variety of seating, wheel, and tire configurations the MadJax XSeries gives consumers the opportunity to personalize the carts to suit their individual style – a trait that winged sprint car fans are known for in the racing community.

The 2023 racing season with TSR will provide a perfect launch point for the MadJax XSeries golf cart, as Schatz and the No. 15 team look to carry their late season momentum into the new year as racing gets underway in the coming weeks.

“Passion is such a huge part of everything we do, and we see that same type of passion in the team at Nivel and MadJax. It was a natural fit when we decided to work together this season as we have a lot of similar goals, mindset, and approach,” said Tony Stewart, 3-Time NASCAR Cup Series Champion and owner of TSR.

“I’ve had the opportunity to drive a variety of golf cart brands in my career and the reliability and power the MadJax XSeries carts offer definitely sets the brand apart. Whether it’s on my property in Indiana or in Arizona, I’m looking forward to enjoying it with the MadJax XSeries.”

Schatz will commence the upcoming season with the All Star Circuit of Champions Series opener at Senoia (Ga.) Raceway on Friday and Saturday, Feb. 3 – 4. The weekend will kick-off with an open practice for the series on Thursday, Feb. 2nd. For those who can’t make the journey to the Peach State can watch each night live on FloRacing.

MadJax Camo Alpha Body Kit Line Up Is Here To Stay

MadJax Camo Alpha Body Kit Line Up is Here to Stay

Innovative New Body Kit Offers both Practicality and Style for Dealers and Consumers

Jacksonville, FL– July 30, 2021

After numerous requests, Nivel Specialty Vehicle permanently relaunched the MadJax Camo Alpha Body Kits. The Alpha is a premium automotive style custom body kit for the Club Car Precedent. Available in multiple colors as well as limited edition series. One of these series specifically had people begging to bring it back. The “Camo” line offers three premium patterns, perfect for low visibility in hunting environments. The low-sheen satin finish eliminates excess reflection to avoid unwanted attention.

Available in three popular camo patterns to run covertly in multiple regions and terrains listed below:

Strata Pattern

Strata incorporates both macro and micro camo schematics. The macro design breaks up the human outline at all distances while the micro design melts into any terrain at close range. From the open country of the West to the mixed forests of the south, to the leaf barren late season hardwoods of the East, you simply will not find a more effective all-purpose hunting pattern.

View Product

Kanati Pattern

Named in honor of a legendary hunter, Kanati, who utilizes high fidelity digital photography and groundbreaking technology to capture the truest colors and silhouettes to create the most realistic camouflage pattern on the market. You will not just blend in. You will disappear.

View Product

Realtree MAX-5 Pattern

Built with waterfowlers in mind, new Realtree MAX-5® camouflage is filled with cattails, reeds, cane, and grasses to blend into flooded marshes. Plus, corn, wheat, oats, and sunflowers to hide you in open fields. It has branches, twigs, and leaves that work in flooded timber. And with open areas that mimic mud, water, bark and shadows, MAX-5 adds another layer of invisibility to camo – no matter where or how you use it.

One more thing, this tough look is not complete without the Alpha Off Road Grille and full standard light kit.
