The award-winning range of compact-folding electric trolleys now comprises of nine feature-packed options, including the M1 and M1 DHC - the simplest-to-use compact trolleys on the market - the world’s most intelligent touchscreen GPS models, the M5 GPS and M5 GPS DHC; the easy-to-handle M7 REMOTE and the flagship luxury M-TECH GPS model.
All M-Series models either offer a separate DHC option or feature the automatic Downhill Control function as standard. This enables them to maintain a constant speed while moving down a gradient - even on the steepest of slopes - thanks to a high-tech motor that offers downhill braking, coupled with an electronic parking brake and special ‘all terrain’ DHC wheels.
Incorporating a lightweight waterproof Lithium battery, the compact M-Series is powered by an incredibly reliable, next generation 28V system, while the space-saving inverting wheels allows the trolley to fold down to a compact size to fit even the smallest of car boots for easy transportation and storage. The trolley handle is fully-adjustable to any height for maximum on-course comfort and the brand’s innovative EASILOCK bag-to-trolley connection system removes the need for a lower bag strap. All models also feature a USB charging port, convenient auto-open stand and oversized tubing for ultimate handle stability as standard.
The new 2022 M3 GPS has received an impressive technological upgrade, with the addition of a new dynamic green view which updates to display the shape of the green being played, plus the ability to move the flag position on its high resolution 2.8" LCD touchscreen display for accurate shot planning. The M3 GPS can also connect to the Motocaddy GPS app via Bluetooth for optional smartphone alerts, plus course and software updates.
Additional features include yardages for more than 40,000 preloaded courses around the world with front, middle and back distances, plus hazards; a super‑lightweight, waterproof (IP66 rated) Lithium battery with on-board charging; shot distance measurement; on-course AED locator and CPR instructions; clock and round timer; plus Adjustable Distance Control up to 60 yards in 5-yard increments.
"The upgrade on the new M3 GPS makes it the strongest entry-level GPS trolley available on the market," said CEO, John Helas. "Offering unbeatable value, the extensive features provide golfers with the information they need to accurately plan their shots and shoot lower scores," he added.
The new M3 GPS electric trolley is available now in Graphite/Lime at the following RRP’s - Standard Lithium battery (£829.99) / Ultra Lithium battery (£879.99). The M3 GPS DHC is also available at an RRP of £879.99 for Standard Lithium battery and £929.99 for the Ultra version.
The brand new M7 GPS is the world's first remote-control touchscreen trolley, featuring quick and accurate fully-integrated, high-performance GPS for over 40,000 courses through its high resolution 3.5” display. Offering the ultimate in responsive control, the M7 GPS also features exclusive cellular connectivity through the Motocaddy Performance Plan that unlocks a selection of premium game-enhancing features. Available on a 12-month free trial with the purchase of the trolley, extra features include:
- Full hole mapping across 40,000 courses directly onto the trolley handle;
- Detailed green view with greenside hazards and drag & drop pin positions;
- Score & statistics tracking through the trolley’s touchscreen display;
- Performance analysis through the free Motocaddy GPS app;
- Real-time course updates to ensure access to the latest mapping;

"Our cellular-led Performance Plan allows golfers to take their trolley experience to a completely new level and including it in the new M7 GPS provides them with the ultimate trolley, combining cutting-edge remote technology with the most hi-tech features ever seen on an electric trolley," said Helas.
The new M7 GPS also features a rechargeable remote-control handset to manoeuvre the trolley forward, left, right and in reverse, with a handy pause and resume feature, plus handset lock function to prevent it from being engaged accidentally. The remote offers an impressive 50-meter range for the golfer to feel in control at all times. The M7 GPS can also switch readily from remote to manual mode and back again if the user wants to control it from the handle like a regular trolley via the speed control button.
The super-responsive LCD touchscreen display incorporates all of the high-performance GPS functions found on the M5 GPS and M-TECH GPS models including Dynamic Green view, clock, round timer, score tracking and shot distance measurement. It also combines automatic Downhill Control with the latest advances in remote control technology to offer the ultimate in responsive control, plus a removable anti-tip rear wheel to provide the trolley with stability uphill.
The M7 GPS is available this summer in a sleek graphite colourway at an RRP of £1,399.
"The popularity of our high-performance GPS models last season was phenomenal and we're delighted to see so many golfers take up our Performance Plan free trial offer to upgrade their functionality," said Helas. "This year’s M-Series range is the most comprehensive ever and includes a trolley option for every golfer, from the easy-to-use M1, through to the technology-packed GPS and remote-control models," he added.
