The ifrothgolf review
In-depth reviewRead our full Motocaddy M5 GPS Electric Trolley review8.8/10A premium three-wheel push-button electric trolley with Motocaddy's GPS screen baked straight into the handle. It carries your bag round the course under its own power across nine speed settings, while a 3.5 inch colour touchscreen serves up front/middle/back distances, full-hole mapping and hazard info from over 40,000 pre-loaded courses. The cable-free CLICK N CONNECT lithium battery drops on without trailing wires, and you get Bluetooth phone notifications and USB charging on top.
What's great
The integrated GPS is the real reason to buy this over a cheaper trolley. Having distances at eye level on the handle, with proper full-hole mapping rather than just a number, genuinely helps club selection and you never touch your phone. Build quality is excellent, the cable-free battery is a faff-free joy to connect, and the 28V motor pulls a loaded bag up wet hills without complaining. The 60-month battery warranty is reassuring at this money.
Worth knowing
It is expensive. New it sits around 1000, and once you have a perfectly good GPS watch or phone app the built-in screen is a luxury you are paying a big premium for. The standard M5 GPS has no downhill control, so on steep descents it can run away from you and you will be braking it by hand or paying more for the DHC version. At 10.5kg plus battery it is not the lightest to lift into a boot, and stock on the latest model comes and goes, so you may be waiting on a pre-order or hunting a pre-owned unit nearer 780.
The verdict
If you want one gadget that both hauls the bag and gives you trusted yardages, the M5 GPS is one of the best-executed options out there and a pleasure to use. Just go in clear-eyed: you are paying a hefty premium for the screen, and if you already own a GPS device the cheaper non-GPS M-Series trolleys give you 90 percent of the benefit for a lot less. Want downhill control too? Budget up for the DHC.
