First Look: Golfstream Gx5 Electric Golf Trolley

By Jane Lees on May 21, 2025

Women & Golf's Jane has a first look at the Golfstream Gx5 electric trolley and what's in the box

The Golfstream Gx5 trolley is one of the lightest and easy to fold/ unfold golf trolleys on the market today.

Recently, we received the Gx5 to try out. More to follow in a review next week but in the meantime a quick first look at the trolley when you open the box.

What's in the Box?

Well, it couldn't be more simple. All robustly packaged, you have:

Folded trolley
Owners instructions
Battery box with battery & charger guide.

Trolley

Unfolding and folding the Golfstream Gx5 trolley is as simple as 1,2,3,...

Handle release — Press on Golfstream handle to release catch

Arm straight — Raise until catch clicks into place

Golfstream handle — Press on catch to release

Golfstream Gx5 folded — Lower down until flat & the magnetic catch clicks

Battery

The battery box includes the battery, battery trolley cable and power lead. Connecting the trolley cable to the battery is a quick push into place with +/- guide markers. It's a quick push down to release the cable after play.

The battery comes fully charged but if you get the chance charge it before use.

When plugged in the battery pack shows red when needing a charge, green when fully charged. Always charge after use. The most damaging thing for any rechargeable battery is to leave it stored in a discharged condition.

Looks

It's a good looking trolley and comes in a variety of colours. (Obviously, pink is not everyone's cup to tea).

Orange,
Yellow
Red
Green

There is an instruction manual included which gives you all the information you need to know, but it is so intuitive that you don't need to read this to get started. Although I will be reading the finer details about the speed indicator and distance control before I take it out on the course.
