Motocaddy is introducing a touch screen-enabled electric trolley as the flagship model of its new range for 2020.
The M5 GPS trolley features an high-resolution 3.5-inch LCD display that can controlled even when wearing a glove.
The M5 GPS and its Downhill Control equivalent, the M5 GPS DHC, incorporate a fully-integrated GPS system with processing power similar to a modern-day smartphone that provides golfers with access to golf course mapping across the world.
More than 40,000 courses are preloaded onto the system, with front, middle and back distances clearly visible, along with the ability to move flag positions on the screen and check for any hazards on the hole.
Clock, round timer and score tracking are also available, plus the par of each hole, the ability to measure a shot, automatic hole advancement and a battery indicator. Potential life-saving defibrillator locations at the course can be found on the screen, as well as crucial CPR instructions for playing partners.
When connected to the free Motocaddy GPS app, golfers can also receive a wide-range of smartphone notifications direct to the touch screen without handling a mobile phone, alerting to a missed call, text message, email or range of app alerts. The smartphone can be securely placed in a golf bag pocket or charged using the trolley’s USB charging port. Other connectivity features include instant course and system updates via the built-in WiFi connection.
The M5 GPS and M5 GPS DHC models are powered by a 28.8V drive system – also found on every M-Series model in the range – to enhance the brand’s strong reputation for efficiency and performance reliability. Driven by a 230W motor, the M-Series Lithium battery is 33% smaller than its nearest competitor and can be charged on board, meaning it doesn’t have to be removed for transportation and storage.
Along with the M5 GPS models, brand new S1, M1, M1 DHC, M3 PRO and M3 PRO DHC trolleys have also been given an extensive makeover, including an updated handle design, new frames and new wheel colour options.
The new S1 features an anti-glare LCD screen, nine speed settings and ADC in 15, 30 and 45-yard increments, while the updated M3 PRO and all-new M3 PRO DHC features drive, round and life distance measurements, clock and round timer and speed indicator on a full-colour LCD screen. Adjustable Distance Control increases to 60 yards in five-yard increments and a CartLock security pin code is also included. Both models are offered in graphite/lime colour combinations.
The modernised M3 PRO and all-new M3 PRO DHC features Drive, Round & Life distance measurements, clock & round timer and speed indicator on the high resolution, full colour LCD screen. Adjustable Distance Control increases to 60 yards in five-yard increments and a CartLock security pin code is also included. Both models are offered in graphite/lime colour combinations.
The new M1 compact trolley boasts a car boot friendly profile for optimum storage. A speed indicator, battery meter and ADC up to 45 yards are featured on the trolley handle screen. The M1 DHC includes all the features found on the M1, but it can also maintain a constant speed while moving down a gradient – thanks to a special single motor that offers downhill braking, coupled with an electronic parking brake. It also comes with specialised all-terrain DHC wheels. Both trolleys are available in graphite/red colour combination.
Also included in this year’s M-Series family is the premium M-TECH model, which was launched last year.
