So you want to know what car Tiger drives? It could be anything from a Buick Enclave to a Porsche Carrera GT. There is a good chance he also owns a golf cart too. It’s all up to you to decide which car is the right one for you, but we’ve compiled a list of possible vehicles based on Tiger’s endorsements.
Genesis GV80
A helicopter video of the accident where Tiger Woods crashed his Genesis GV80 shows the car’s signage: “Genesis Invitational.” The company recently debuted the GV80, a new midsize luxury SUV, which has a 7,700-pound towing capacity. During Tiger Woods’ February car crash, the vehicle was on its way to host a PGA Tour tournament in Los Angeles.

It is the first vehicle in the brand’s lineup
It may come as a surprise that Tiger Woods is driving the first vehicle in the brand’s lineup. As a part of a long-term endorsement deal, Woods owns the Buick Enclave. While he drove a Cadillac Escalade during the contract, Woods would likely have preferred to drive a Buick exclusively. So, how does this deal benefit Buick?
Lexus LS460
You may be asking yourself what kind of car Tiger Woods drives. Obviously he owns a high-performance Lexus LS460, but what about the car itself? There has been plenty of speculation about the car, including reports that Tiger Woods is the first person to drive it. Tiger Woods has been spotted driving it in various events, but the car never went into production. Buick has introduced a version of the Velite model to China last year, and it is fully electric.
Mercedes-Benz Escalade
Apparently, the car Tiger Woods drives is a safer choice than the luxury SUV he normally drives. The 2009 Cadillac Escalade crashed into a fire hydrant, leaving the front bumper slightly damaged, but the driver was uninjured. A Lamborghini Murcielago, for example, can cost $140,000 to $760,000, depending on model. The Mercedes-Benz S65, however, costs just $235,000 and is even safer than a Mercedes-Benz Escalade. The V12 engine in the Escalade is powerful and efficient, and the vehicle accelerates from 0-60 in 3.5 seconds.
Lamborghini Murcielago
If Tiger Woods drives a Lamborghini Murcielago, what is his car’s cost? Usually, a Lamborghini Murcielago costs between $140,000 and $760,000, but a custom Murcielago can run up to ten times that amount. Regardless of the price, Woods is a man of comfort. The car’s V12 engine gives it an impressive horsepower and acceleration. And, it takes 3.5 seconds to reach 60 mph!
Buick Enclave
At the L.A. Auto Show, golf superstar Tiger Woods is set to drive the new Buick Enclave crossover. Tiger Woods knew that GM was working on a vehicle like the Enclave when he pitched the car to GM. But, when he took the wheel of the new model, he made it clear that he wanted the vehicle to be a golf hauler. According to Sharon Terlep, the automaker’s press release stated that “Tiger Woods will be driving the Enclave.”
Porsche Carrera GT
The Porsche Carrera GT costs close to half a million dollars and can accelerate to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds. Woods has also been photographed in a Velite concept car, which never went into production. Last year, Buick brought the Velite to China and modified it to run on electricity. However, in 2017, the world’s most famous golfer was arrested on suspicion of DUI. That might have something to do with the controversy surrounding the car.
It is worth more than the Mercedes-Benz Escalade
While it isn’t widely known that Woods has sold his Porsche Carrera GT, the actor’s car has a market value of more than PS1 million. Tiger was spotted driving a Velite concept car in the early 2000s, which never made it to production. However, the Velite made a comeback last year, when the automaker introduced it to China. The car was modified with an electric motor, and was worth over PS135,000 in 2007.
