Abstract: A golf car can include a folding canopy system that can be moved from a raised operable position to a lowered shipping position. In a shipping position, the canopy has a lower overall height than in the operable position. In the shipping position, the seating area of the golf car is still accessible to allow the golf car to be driven onto and off of the transportation container with the canopy in the shipping position. Upon removal from the transportation container, the canopy can be moved to its raised position and secured in that position. A roof canopy can have a plurality of channels that direct captured water to a collection basin. The collection basin can communicate with a drainage member that drains the water from the canopy to a lower portion of the golf car and releases the captured rain in a desirable location.
