2025 Motocaddy M1 Review

The Motocaddy M1 Lithium, a long-standing favourite among golfers, continues to be a top-tier choice for 2025.

Known for its compact folding design, the M1 received several meaningful updates last year, ensuring it remains a leader in performance and durability.

With enhancements such as rubberised tyres for superior traction and wear resistance, and the new cable-free Lithium battery system, the M1 is designed to provide a seamless and worry-free experience on the golf course.

Why Choose the Motocaddy M1?

The M1 is ideal for golfers who value storage efficiency without compromising on functionality. Whether you’re transporting equipment in a smaller car boot or simply looking to save space in your garage, the M1 fits the bill perfectly.

Beyond its practicality, the M1 incorporates cutting-edge features that elevate its performance, making it an excellent choice for golfers of all levels.

Let’s explore the M1 in detail across the following critical categories:

- Wheels
- Frame & Unfolding
- Handle & Controls
- Lithium Battery
- Warranty & After-Sales Support

Wheels

Traction and Practicality Redefined

- Front Wheel:
The low-profile rubberised tyre on the front wheel is paired with a large clearance gap, which prevents mud from clogging the wheel, even in wet or sticky conditions.

- Rear Wheels:
The rubberised low-profile tyres introduced in the recent update deliver excellent grip in all weather conditions. Their tread design not only enhances stability but also adds a stylish touch as the trolley glides down the fairway.

For added convenience, the rear wheels can be easily removed, flipped, and reattached (a process known as inverting). This feature is particularly useful for saving space during transport or storage.

Frame & Unfolding

Compact & reliable

The M1’s frame design has earned widespread acclaim from golfers around the world. Its compact folded size makes it a standout option for those who are conscious of space, whether travelling to the course or storing their equipment at home.

- Folding Mechanism:
The M1 features a simple two-step folding mechanism, enabling quick and effortless folding and unfolding.

- Folded Dimensions:
When folded, the trolley measures 65cm x 47cm x 41cm, making it compact enough to fit into most car boots.

- Weight:
The standard M1 weighs 9.9kg without the battery, while the DHC (Downhill Control) version is slightly heavier at 10.6kg, thanks to its additional features.

Handle & Controls

Comfortable and Customisable

The handle design of the M1 is both ergonomic and intuitive, offering a comfortable grip and a user-friendly experience.

- Adjustable Handle Height:
The M1’s handle can be adjusted to suit golfers of all heights, ensuring a tailored and comfortable feel.

- Display Screen:
Positioned on the handle, the easy-to-read screen displays the trolley’s current speed setting (from 1-9) and the remaining battery charge.

DHC Model Features
For golfers tackling hilly courses, the M1 DHC (Downhill Control) version is an excellent choice.

- Downhill Control:
This feature prevents the trolley from rolling away on slopes, maintaining a consistent speed as you descend.

- Electronic Parking Brake:
The DHC version includes an electronic parking brake, allowing you to securely lock the trolley in place while you take your shot.

Please note that these features are exclusive to the DHC version of the M1 and are not available on the standard model.

Lithium Battery

Durable and Hassle-Free

The M1’s new cable-free Lithium battery system addresses a common issue found in older models and enhances ease of use.

- Battery Options:
The M1 comes with two battery options:
Standard (18 holes) and Ultra (36 holes)—to suit different needs.

- Cable-Free Design:
Unlike older models, which relied on a cable connection prone to wear and tear, the cable-free design eliminates this weak point, ensuring long-lasting durability.

- Convenience:
The battery can remain attached to the trolley during folding and transport, as the trolley’s mechanism automatically disconnects it when folded.For those who prefer, the battery can also be easily removed for charging indoors.

The M1 comes with comprehensive warranties:
- Trolley: 2-year warranty.
- Battery: 5-year warranty.
