Best Electric Trolleys For Women 2025

The humble push cart has come a long way in its evolution from a mere metal framed contraption to the impressive electric trolleys we see for sale in golf shops today. No longer is age or fitness a barrier, the introduction of the electric golf trolley means that all women with the stamina to walk 9 or 18 holes can have the joy of playing this game. The electric trolley does the hard work for us on the course, taking away the dread of having to carry a heavy bag around, particularly in the heat or on courses with lots of elevation changes. Many of the best women’s golf bags on the market are extremely light however so carrying for 9 holes for some extra fitness shouldn’t be an issue.

Many of us in the GM office certainly can’t imagine life without our trusty powered trolley, especially when playing in 36-hole tournaments or competing over several days. The life of the battery is one of the key criteria that’s important. Other factors include price, the “golf gadgets” that tech-savvy women may enjoy as added features and of course the weight of the trolley as you’ll be lifting in and out of your car. Having an electric trolley will help you carry some essential golf accessories around the course without having to worry about additional weight. Narrowing down the right electric trolley for you isn’t always easy, so after testing many different models, we’ve put together this handy buyer’s guide for females to help you decide.

Quick List

Best Electric Trolleys For Women

Top pick

A top of the range model for women and men, the M5 GPS from Motocaddy features a hi resolution 3.5 inch LCD display which is also touchscreen, and can be used in all conditions and with gloves as well. The screen gives yardages, can track your score whilst you can amend pin positions as well to make sure you get the right yardage.

The M5 is powered by a 28.8V drive system that you get on all the M-series trolleys this helps to improve efficiency and performance reliability, this also means getting hold of new batteries, chargers and getting repairs is easier with a standard drive system across the range. I liked the fact it folded down nicely and at only 10.5kg, it was fairly easy to get into the car. Although I should admit the folding latches can be a little stiff at times, although from my experience they do loosen up over time. As such it can take only a few seconds to erect it fully.

Finally with all the features available, you could be forgiven for thinking the battery life is poor but this isn't the case at all.

Most compact

Since golf trolleys began incorporating GPS devices, many to do so have been very clunky, heavy and difficult to handle. Powakaddy proved this didn't always have to be the case with their CT8 trolley and have made even more improvements in their latest release - the CT12. I think it ticks pretty much every box you need from an electric trolley and given how easy it is to use and setup, it's easily one of the most compact golf trolleys as well.

The folding system is easy to use after getting used to it, in fact it became second nature for me. It folds down very compactly and what's more the rear wheels can be inverted to save even more space when storing it away.

I think looks wise the trolley really elevates itself especially with the black and silver finish and the wheels really pop as well. The GPS system is the same one we've become used to in PowaKaddy devices, but it's on a new and very clear 5" full-color touchscreen display that they've switched from landscape to portrait and for good reason.

This screen is really crisp and clean, and provides a multitude of features including yardages, scorecard, stroke index information, active green view and drop flag to give you personalized, accurate yardages on course.

Best sporty design

If you are after a great looking trolley, then the S1 is definitely a model to consider. The seamless, flowing design really looks fantastic as do the pops of red with the sporty wheels. Performance is not just aesthetic though because it is very easy to use, so much so it got a 5-star rating in our review.

This ease of use starts with the folding process, which is instantaneous. It's one step system works by pressing one button and pulling the chassis up, and boom you are done. Obviously folding it down takes next to no time as well.

Additionally this trolley blends seamlessly into your surroundings on the golf course, which is a good thing. The motor is quiet and the knob on the handle is highly responsive to commands, all while doing a perfect job of carrying your clubs. If ease of use and a sporty design are your main priorities, then the S1 is well worth consideration, and the weight is an added bonus for women too.

Best screen

Thanks to the new class-leading 5" HD screen on the PowaKaddy RX12, using a golf trolley to plot around the course is easier than ever. The screen is a powerful one too, boasting a 1.1GHz processor that means the responsiveness to commands is akin to that of a premium smartphone.

I felt like the screen and GPS on the previous previous RX1 trolley was a little basic when compared to competitors on the market but those concerns are now a thing of the past. It gives yardages to the front, middle and back of greens, yardages to hazards, the ability to drag and drop the pin, a scorecard, performance tracking (fairways hit, greens hit, putts per hole) and a shot measurer.

I should also mention the remote functionality. Featuring a new and improved remote control, replacing the older, more clunky remote on the RX1, the RX12 is solid if not unspectacular in terms of this functionality. During testing I had to add the odd input to keep it straight, whilst other options on this list coped better with uneven lies.

Nevertheless, this remains an excellent electric trolley for those who want the combination of a remote control feature and a top quality GPS device. However it is worth noting this trolley is heavier than other models on this list so if you value a lightweight feel, then perhaps the S1 is a better option.

Best remote model

The Vertx Remote Cart excels in both its design and the technology that underpins it. To begin with you get a good-looking trolley that uses Stewarts intuitive two-step folding system. A cart can have all the gadgets it wants but if it’s tricky to fold and unfold, then its appeal becomes limited. That’s certainly not the case here, with their easy-to-use system resulting in a surprisingly compact unit when folded.

When in motion the design translates to a really solid trolley despite the two front wheels being pretty small in comparison to some other carts. Some of this stability is aided by its overall bulk but this doesn’t negatively impact its maneuverability. During our testing the Vertx had no trouble with a variety of terrain, including steeper hills. It’s here that the unseen tech called Active Terrain Control (ATC) plays a leading role, with the operating system allowing the trolley to react to different conditions.

What you don’t get here is a GPS built-in to the handle. If that’s a dealbreaker you might want to consider the GPS options from Powacaddy or Motocaddy, for example, and again, this model is reasonably heavy at 14.9kg/31lbs so there are lighter models out there.

Most robust

For any golfer who’s into their gadgets, the S5 GPS from Motocaddy is a great trolley choice. Boasting a range of exciting features, it’s sure to be a hit with anyone who loves tech or is crazy about testing out all the best golf accessories available.

One of the most sought-after features of the S5 is the one-step folding system that quickly transforms the trolley into a compact shape. Of course, it’s slightly larger than some of the other trolleys on the list, which is something to keep in mind if space is limited. That said, one of the great things about this particular folding trolley is the fact that you can charge the trolley’s lithium battery even when the cart is folded down.

The assembly process for this cart is extremely user-friendly. All you need to do is press the blue button on the chassis and the S5 conveniently pops up in one swift movement. One thing to note is that it does have a slightly larger footprint than some other women’s trolleys, so golfers wanting something more compact may want to consider other options. That said, it’s this larger footprint that makes it extremely stable, allowing it to perform seamlessly on various terrain types. Additionally its size adds to its robustness too.

Then there’s the technology on offer in this cart, which we must say is pretty impressive. Featuring a fully integrated GPS system that can be easily access via a 3.5” touchscreen, which includes Dynamic Green View that matches the hole being played, as well as providing accurate yardages to each point on the course.

How we test

When it comes to testing golf gear, let alone golf trolleys and carts, Golf Monthly has a comprehensive testing procedure built around using the products properly, thoroughly, and over a number of rounds and golf experiences. That way we can produce proper reviews that help you make an informed decision regarding possibly buying a certain model. For our Women based buying guides such as this one, our female staff writers conduct testing and offer their opinion on what our female readers want to know. Getting down to specifics, we should first say that no manufacturer can pay for a good review, we just give you our honest opinion on the product.

Another thing to mention is that before we go about testing these products the Golf Monthly team tend to attend product launches and do meets with the manufacturers R&D department. This helps us to better understand the tech going into these trolleys and carts, this is important, especially with the amount of technology manufacturers are putting into these products. If we have a direct understanding of a model or brand then we can pass on that information better to the consumer and make sure you understand what goes into these trolleys and why they are good or bad. Our female writers regularly use electric trolleys while playing and so are in an excellent position to offer advice on various brands and models.

How to choose a golf cart

There’s a lot to think about when it comes to choosing one of the best electric golf trolleys, but fear not, we’ve put together some key points to consider when it comes to choosing a trolley to make sure you’re purchasing a product that suits your needs.

Additional Features

Over the last decade the electric trolley has become increasingly sophisticated and the additional benefits such as in-built GPS, which will help new female golfers who haven’t played many golf courses. Scoring functionality, because if you’re like us, it seems almost impossible to find a pencil in your bag before your round and even the addition of USB ports, so you can charge your phone while you’re on the course. All of the above are features that tech loving women will benefit from having access to.

Battery Life

Big improvements have been to the lifespan of the battery in recent years. New materials like lithium have allowed trolley designers to make the battery smaller, lighter and longer-lasting. It is worth noting that more powerful batteries do often cost a little more.

Storage

Historically, older style powered trolleys were incredibly heavy to lift and cumbersome to store and women complained about the difficulty of transporting them to the course. Modern electric trolley designs are much more compact and made from some clever lightweight materials that allow them to still be robust, but far easier to lift in and out of a car boot.

Maneuverability

The ease of use is another big consideration, whether you tend to play a flat parkland course or a hillier heathland or links, the “best maneuverability” may score much needed marks in your decision-making. There’s also the design and style to take into account and the landscape of trolleys is changing so that there are more choices than just the traditional black frame for the style-conscious woman.

Remote control/Follow Trolleys

Yes you can actually buy electric trolleys that follow you now via sensors! Naturally trolleys that have follow or remote control functionality do cost considerably more, but if you play at a course where trolleys have to stick to paths down the side of holes, being able to control the trolley from the fairway via remote is extremely helpful.
