Cart Tek has been building electric golf caddies for over 20 years -- longer than most competitors have existed. Their 2026 lineup spans seven models across three distinct platforms: the new Formula series, the proven GRi series, and the premium Yellowstone and Galaxy Titan.
This guide breaks down every Cart Tek model so you can pick the right one without second-guessing.

The Formula Platform (New for 2026)
The Formula series is Cart Tek's newest platform -- aviation-grade aluminum construction designed from scratch. Three models share the same frame: Manual, Remote, and Pursuit. Think of it as one caddy with three control systems.
Formula Manual -- $895
The Formula Manual is the most affordable electric caddy we sell. Rotary speed dial, automatic downhill control, 25.2V lithium battery rated for 36 holes. Same aviation-grade aluminum frame as the $1,895 Pursuit.
Buy this if: You want the lowest possible entry price into electric caddies. You do not need remote or follow. You want modern build quality at an unbeatable price.
Formula Remote -- $1,649
The Formula Remote adds full remote control to the Formula platform. Available in 5 color options -- the only electric caddy with meaningful color selection. Same aviation aluminum, same 36-hole battery, now with remote steering.
Buy this if: You want remote control with a modern design. You value aesthetics -- pick a color that matches your bag. You want the sweet spot between the Yellowstone ($1,299) and 1500 V3 ($1,695).
Formula Pursuit -- $1,895
The Formula Pursuit is the only caddy with three control modes: UWB auto-follow, remote control, and manual steering. Use follow on wide fairways, remote on tricky terrain, manual around the green. Same Formula platform.
Buy this if: You want maximum versatility. You cannot decide between follow and remote -- get both. You want the most future-proof caddy available.

The GRi series is Cart Tek's established, time-tested lineup. These are the caddies that built Cart Tek's reputation over two decades. Both models received 2026 refreshes with new wheels, V-shaped bag rest, and repositioned battery placement.
GRi-975Li -- $1,199
The GRi-975Li is Cart Tek's all-time best-seller. Manual steering with a push-button distance control feature: press once for 10 yards, twice for 20, three times for 30. The caddy rolls the distance and stops. DHC, 2026-upgraded wheels and bag rest.
Buy this if: You want a proven, reliable caddy with a decade of track record. You like the convenience of distance control without committing to full remote. You prefer time-tested designs over bleeding-edge tech.
1500 V3 -- $1,695
The 1500 V3 is Cart Tek's flagship remote caddy. Full remote control with Active Steer Assist -- a gyroscope-based system that automatically corrects the caddy's course when it drifts on slopes. Distance control, 2026 refresh, upgraded everything.
Buy this if: You play hilly courses and want the caddy to track straight without constant correction. You want Cart Tek's most capable remote caddy. You value Active Steer Assist for slope stability.

Yellowstone -- $1,299
The Yellowstone is Cart Tek's most compact remote caddy. It folds smaller than any other remote model -- if trunk space is your top concern, this is the answer. Full remote steering, DHC, 36-hole lithium battery.
Buy this if: You drive a compact car or have limited trunk space. You want remote control at the lowest remote price point. You value portability above all else.
Galaxy Titan -- $2,999
The Galaxy Titan is in a class by itself. Handcrafted titanium frame weighing just 9 lbs -- 16 lbs total assembled. That is lighter than many manual push carts. Whisper-quiet German gearbox motors, electronic parking brake, distance control. The lightest electric golf caddy ever made.
Buy this if: Weight is the deciding factor. You want the absolute finest materials and craftsmanship. You appreciate German engineering and titanium construction. Budget is not a concern.

Both are excellent brands with different strengths:
- Cart Tek offers more variety (7 models vs 4), more control options (including auto-follow), more price points ($895-$2,999), and features like Active Steer Assist and titanium construction that Motocaddy does not offer.
- Motocaddy offers GPS touchscreen integration, the QUIKFOLD system, cable-free batteries, and the brand recognition of being the world's #1 caddy brand.
Neither is wrong. The best caddy is the one that matches your priorities. Read our Motocaddy Buying Guide for the Motocaddy breakdown.
