What we score

How we assess electric trolleys.

GGL Score™ for electric trolleys

We prioritise reliability, battery life, stability, folded size, ease of use, support and value.

Simple rule: don't overbuy features.

Most golfers should choose the simplest reliable lithium trolley that fits their car and course. Add remote control or GPS only if you will use it every round.
