By: Golfshake Editor | Mon 02 Mar 2020

Ushering in this new decade in stylish fashion, acclaimed manufacturer of electric golf trolleys, PowaKaddy has launched the 10th generation of its hugely popular Freeway Range; the FX Collection, and has introduced the completely remodelled 2020 Compact Range.

The Freeway has been the gold standard in electric trolley performance for decades, and this latest offering sees unique new styling and powerful intelligence combine with industry-leading construction to create PowaKaddy’s most technologically advanced family to date.

“This stunning collection is the result of meticulously planned engineering and we are delighted to be introducing the next stage in the 40-year evolution of PowaKaddy’s electric trolley design,” commented PowaKaddy CEO, David Catford. “We have completely remodelled our chassis shapes for 2020 and implemented major technological advancements to help meet the demands of every golfer.”

The latest Freeway models feature PowaKaddy’s new 1-Click system which folds 20% smaller than previous versions, while the stunning new PowaFrame® chassis is the strongest in the game and a new optional self-sensing Electronic Braking System (EBS) slows the trolley on steep inclines.

The collection is headlined by the all-new FX7 GPS, the world’s first GPS electric golf trolley to feature touch screen technology. A stunning 3.5” high visibility, full-colour, touch screen LCD delivers fast and accurate distances to the front, middle and back of the green as well as hazards on over 40,000 courses worldwide and also displays the course scorecard.

The PowaKaddy GPS Bluetooth Connected App for iOS and Android allows golfers to carry out course updates on-the-go using just their mobile device. No annual fees or subscriptions are required.

Designed for the driven golfer, the 2020 FX7 is the most intelligent trolley of its kind. Boasting PowaKaddy’s re-engineered chassis, it provides the ultimate electric trolley experience with seamlessly integrated, improved technology. The built-in calorie counter and distance measurement function can both be accessed via the stunning new 3.5” full-colour widescreen display with the help of the LCD backlight control system for clearer viewing.

The new FX5 provides the perfect option for the golfer seeking exceptional features at a mid-price point. Complete with a bright, 2.8” mid-size full-colour widescreen display, ADF (automatic distance function) and USB charging port, the FX5 combines understated elegance with superior performance. This sleek design features PowaKaddy’s all-new stealth wheels as well as newly designed anti-damper dial control and improved accuracy speed controller.

The perfect entry-level model to spark an electric adventure, the all-new FX3 has been re-engineered for simplicity without compromise. Available in a stealth black or glossy white frame, the FX3 boasts a new 2.3” full colour widescreen display, as well as a height adjustable, soft touch handle for added comfort and new HET technology for greater downhill control.

The FX Collection is powered by PowaKaddy’s upgraded Lithium 30v Max^TMbattery and motor system. The new Plug’n’Play™ battery is the thinnest, lightest and most powerful golf trolley battery on the market and remains on the trolley when folded. It also features a new, top mounted, easy access on/off switch, a clever battery release latch and is an impressive 40% smaller than the previous model, while maintaining 100% of its capacity.

2020 Compact Range

A Simple-2-fold™ system allows the CT6 and CT6 GPS to fold down 20% smaller than the previous models and an impressive 35% smaller than their nearest competitor. The all-new, low-profile PowaFrame® chassis fits into even the smallest of car boots, making it the perfect trolley for the golfer who puts a premium on storage and convenience.

Engineered to take ultra-compact performance to an entirely new level, the 2020 CT range gives golfers the opportunity to enjoy smarter power. PowaKaddy’s full rebranding sees bold new styling and industry-leading construction combine to produce their most advanced Compact range to date.

“The Compact range has been a huge success since its inception in 2017 and we are proud to introduce the second generation of our extremely popular GPS model,” said PowaKaddy CEO, David Catford.

“There are some major technological advancements in the new range and after two years of design and development, we believe our fantastic team of engineers have created not only the most compact electric trolley on the market, but also the most intelligent,” added Catford.

The smallest ultra-compact electric trolley in the world, the CT6 GPS spearheads the 2020 Compact range. Boasting an all-new design, complete with a fully-integrated GPS system which can be accessed via the 2.8” full-colour widescreen display on the trolley’s high-tech handle, the CT6 GPS puts powerful technology in the hands of golfers who demand more. With stylish new Gunmetal Compact accents and cleverly folding inverted wheels, this game-changing model represents a giant leap in ultra-compact design.

As well as automatically locating your course, the CT6 GPS offers an auto hole advance feature as well as an automatic distance function (ADF) that allows you to set the stopping distance of your trolley to the desired yardage.

The PowaKaddy GPS Bluetooth Connected App for iOS and Android allows golfers to carry out course updates on-the-go using just their mobile device. No annual fees or subscriptions are required.

Engineered to rewrite the rules of compact design, the new CT6 benefits from a stylish, premium gunmetal metallic frame that weighs in at just 9.8 kilograms – 5% lighter than the previous Compact model. The integrated carry handle makes transportation effortless while the soft touch handle can be easily adjusted to sit at the perfect height for the user.

The 2020 Compact range is powered by PowaKaddy’s upgraded Lithium 30v Max^TMbattery and motor system. The new Plug’n’Play™ battery is the thinnest, lightest and most powerful golf trolley battery on the market and remains on the trolley when folded. It also features a new, top mounted, easy access on/off switch, a clever battery release latch and is an impressive 40% smaller than the previous model, while maintaining 100% of its capacity.
