Stewart Golf Vertx Remote electric trolley from £1,249
GM verdict
Stewart Golf’s new Vertx Remote model shares a lot of the same visual DNA as its older siblings, but with some key additional technology to help it outperform its competitors on the course.
There’s a fresh wheel design and new Stewart logo, but the chassis configuration is one with which we’ve become familiar. The Vertx Remote shares the same folding system as the Q Follow model – aneat two-step operation that packs things down remarkably compactly considering the overall size and width of the trolley’s chassis.
The brilliant Active Terrain Control (ATC) technology really elevates the on-course experience, and we quickly picked up on how well this trolley tackles various types of terrain. The new operating system allows it to react to its surroundings and automatically redistribute power between the twin motors.
Connectivity
The Vertx Remote doesn’t have a screen in the handle, but you can monitor battery power and health through the free Stewart Golf app.
Unlike standard downhill braking, ATC allows the trolley to automatically maintain the same speed, uphill or downhill, without you having to change the power output. Not having to constantly adjust the speed when tackling the many hills you typically encounter makes walking the golf course an even more relaxing experience.
