Research Question: Airport Cars

Anyone know what they call those little cars that drive people (usually the elderly or handicapped) to their gate in the airport?

I don't mean the shuttles that take people to remote terminals (a la Dulles Airport), but the cars that actually run indoors and beep at people to get out of the way.

We used to call them Cushman Carts when Cushman was the major manufacturer of them. I always just called them "Golf Carts."

Couple other quaint colloquialisms, but you'll loose you PG rating.
