The quality of the Powakaddy and Motocaddy golf trolleys speak for themselves. For this reason it’s rare that you’ll find a discount on either of the golf trolleys. The stunning all-New 2020 Freeway FX7 GPS puts powerful technology in the hands of those who demand more. The new FX7 GPS with Bluetooth surpasses even these high expectations, focusing on what matters most. PowaKaddy’s simple 2-Fold system allows it to fold 20% smaller than the previous C2i model, and 35% smaller than its closest competitor, while the 30v 230w motor is powerful and impressively quiet.

The good news is Powakaddy have been working to develop their range of accessories and you can now find a towel, deluxe seat, drinks holder, travel cover, rain cover, umbrella holder, and winter wheels amongst their selection. PowaKaddy has simply taken away the central bar in the main frame and added stability elsewhere. There is nothing there that shouldn't be, it's smart, modern, contemporary but looks sturdy and shouts quality from the moment you pull it out of the box. Simply plug in the charger, press the button on top of the trolley until it is green, and wait until it's charged. Slip the battery into the slot with ease and you're good to go. All you then have to do is make the most of the Plug 'n' Play battery system by hitting the button again at the course - the green light appears and you're off. The high-performance GPS technology is fully integrated and comes pre-loaded with over 40,000 courses worldwide with no annual fees or subscriptions.The PowaKaddy FX7 GPS trolley is PowaKaddy's flagship model for 2020 from PowaKaddy's CT and FX ranges in what it refers to as "PowaKaddy’s most technologically advanced range to date." What's It All About? There are a lot of new features on the Powakaddy FX7 electric trolley which this year are a welcome addition, but the 11kg or 25lb in weight still makes the unit quite difficult to lift and load into the car. The CT8 has a height adjustable soft touch handle and uses the same anti-tamper dial found in the CT6, along with the Automatic Distance Function, allowing you to send the trolley ahead or to the next tee. PowaKaddy’s ‘plug ‘n’ play’ battery is the thinnest, lightest and most powerful lithium battery on the market and ensures there are no wires to connect, while the top mounted and easy access on/off switch and simple battery release latch make it supremely simple to use.

There is also a distance measurement function that allows you to accurately measure the distance of drives and displays the total mileage of the trolley, and a competition mode that removes the features that are banned in the competitive environment. Within seconds I hit the 'Play Golf' button, selected the course I was playing which was at the top of a list of local courses, then headed to the first tee. However, the 12 month warranty may not be long enough for some golfers who are looking for a little more peace of mind should something go wrong. 3. Stewart Golf It also has handy additional features such as an electronic scorecard and USB charger. There is also an option for a self-sensing electronic braking system so automatically control speed on slopes.

In addition to all of the features highlighted in the electric golf trolleys above, there are some other key considerations to bear in mind when comparing Powakaddy to Motocaddy. 1. Reliability and Repairs The Powakaddy FX7 trolley is the most intelligent of its kind and has been re-engineered – making it better, lighter and stronger than ever before. It now has a brand new chassis that is seamlessly integrated with improved technology and provides golfers with the ultimate electric trolley experience. The 2021 PowaKaddy CT6 features a new 2.8” mid-size full-colour widescreen display and a USB charging port. The soft touch handle adjusts for the perfect fit, while an integrated carry handle makes it easy to transport. PowaKaddy’s classic push trolley has been given a fifth-generation update for 2021 with the brand calling it “simplicity refined”.

The FX7 GPS is all about giving the keenest of golfers everything they could ever wish for on a golf course, and more.The fully integrated GPS comes with 40,000 pre-loaded courses from across the globe with no annual fees or subscriptions – all displayed on a 3.5” high visibility TFT full-colour Touch widescreen display. This provides intelligent performance on the golf course, including a scorecard, stroke index information (for both men and women), Active Green View to show the green’s shape, and Drop Flag technology to give accurate and precise distance measurement to any pin position. There isn't a feature I could really think of that PowaKaddy haven't covered with this trolley, apart from actually hitting your ball for you, it seems to do everything. So, I believe the main questions in this review are not about what it does, but how well it does it and are they really necessary to making life easier out on the course? The Test Depending on the course you’re playing, an optional self-sensing Electronic Braking System will help to slow the trolley down on steep inclines. For greater downhill control, the Powakaddy FX7 features a new Hall Effect Transducer (HET) which will help to prevent the trolley from rolling away, tipping over, becoming damaged or causing serious injury. The stunning all-New 2021 Freeway FX7 GPS puts powerful technology in the hands of those who demand more. The new FX7 GPS with Bluetooth surpasses even these high expectations, focusing on what matters most.

The rechargeable remote control handset is one of the leading features of the Motocaddy M7 electric trolley. The simple button design means the trolley is easy to control and the pause and emergency stop functions make it one of the safest on the golf course. Key Considerations Yes. This is a futuristic-style trolley that has covered everything so all you have to do is worry about your golf game. It removes the need for an additional GPS device (which in today's market is something I love) and is therefore undoubtedly one of the most impressive, cutting-edge trolleys available in 2020. Welcome to the next generation Lithium 30v Max™ battery and motor system, making the new trolleys significantly more efficient. When assembling the frame one thing I was a little disappointed by was the fact that the front wheel is not actually part of the main chassis. Instead you have to attach the front wheel and bar to the trolley yourself. Don't get me wrong, this is no tough task and took me no longer than two minutes with the Allen key and washers provided with the trolley, however I just didn't expect to do it. For the price tag you'd expect PowaKaddy to have done this for you.In my humble opinion, this is the best looking golf trolley on the global golf trolley market. I don't really think anything else comes close. I thought the more compact C2i GPS trolley I tested last year looked great, but the new 'less is more' design approach to the FX7 has taken things to a new level. Thanks to the extra cost (over the TwinLine 5), you also get a useful umbrella holder and water resistant mobile phone storage area, plus there are large scorecard, ball and tee holders. So far, there does not appear to be much to split Powakaddy and Motocaddy but perhaps one area where the latter has a slight advantage is in terms of available accessories. Designed to fold 20% smaller than the previous Powakaddy Freeway model, the Powakaddy FX7 is a convenient choice. It has the simplest folding system in the entire FX collection and makes it easier for you to fit in the boot of your car – transporting it to golfing events all over the country!
