Kennesaw, Georgia (No-
vember 6, 2019) — Yamaha
Golf-Car Company, in con-
junction with Yamaha Motor
Corporation U.S.A. and Ya-
maha Corporation of Amer-
ica (Yamaha Music), is very
pleased to announce that it
has donated two very spe-
cial and uniquely custom-
ized 2020 Drive2 AC person-
al transportation vehicles to
Sir Elton John and his Elton
John Aids Foundation. Both
cars were presented last Fri-
day during the Atlanta stop
of his Farewell Yellow Brick
Road Tour.
The first car is customized
to resemble the artwork on
Elton’s new biography Me:
Elton John,which currently
sits at #1 on the New York
Times best-selling list, while
the second car is also dis-
tinctive as it resembles the
look and feel of Elton’s Fare-
well Yellow Brick Road Tour.
Both cars will be utilized
by Elton on his tour circuit,
with one travelling through-
out the United States and
Europe, with the other even
travelling as far as Australia
and South America. After
the conclusion of his tour,
both cars will be auctioned
off by the Elton John Aids
Foundation with 100% of
the proceeds going to this
very worthy cause.
“This is just simply a great
opportunity for Yamaha
Music and our Golf Car
team to get together for
such a worthy and mean-
ingful cause,” said Tom

Elton John have been extraordinary
partners,” said Chris Gero, Chief Artist
Relations Executive of Yamaha Artist
Relations Group/Yamaha Entertain-

tion with Yamaha Golf Cars is a natural
