To operate as a retail dealer in Destin, the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles requires a motor vehicle dealer license. Because Sivo carts are 50-state street-legal LSVs, they are titled and registered similarly to cars. You will need a commercially zoned location, a surety bond, and garage liability insurance to comply with Florida Statutes.

FAQs
Yes. In Destin, LSVs like the Sivo Edge can be driven on any street with a posted speed limit of 35 mph or less. While they cannot be driven directly on U.S. Highway 98 (Emerald Coast Pkwy), they are legally allowed to cross it at designated intersections, making them the perfect “beach-to-bay” transportation for locals and tourists.
We prioritize “turnkey inventory.” Unlike many manufacturers with six-month backlogs, Sivo offers fully assembled, ready-to-sell inventory. Our goal is to get your showroom stocked and your first units on the streets of Destin as quickly as possible.
Sivo offers a class-leading three-year limited warranty and a dedicated 12-year warranty on our Eco Lithium batteries. All warranty service can be handled via phone, email, or our online portal, supported by a massive domestic parts inventory to ensure your customers experience minimal downtime.
Yes. To maintain the premium Sivo brand standards and comply with Florida dealer licensing, you must have a physical, commercially zoned storefront. We provide free showroom materials and branding assets with your first order to help you create a high-end customer experience.
Sivo values partnership over saturation. We review each application based on the proximity to existing dealers and the market capacity of the Okaloosa/Walton County area. Our goal is to ensure every authorized dealer has enough “turf” to maintain healthy profit margins.
Destin’s salt-air environment is notoriously hard on traditional lead-acid batteries. Sivo’s standard lithium-ion batteries are maintenance-free, charge faster, and offer significantly more range for long days spent traveling between the beach, the harbor, and local restaurants.
We don’t just give you the carts; we give you the customers. Sivo provides active lead support, routing local inquiries from the Destin and South Walton area directly to your dealership. You’ll also have access to high-quality digital assets for your local social media and website.
