MGI Zip X1, X3 and X5 (walk-behind)
A walk-behind electric buggy has a motor that pulls the bag while you steer by the handle. The Zip range is the entry point:
- Zip X1 at $1,099: the simplest and cheapest MGI buggy.
- Zip X3 at $1,299: sized for 36 holes.
- Zip X5 at $1,499: adds downhill braking, which holds the buggy's speed on slopes.

MGI Zip Navigator AT and Ai 500 (remote control)
A remote-control buggy follows a handset, so you walk free of it. The Zip Navigator AT is $2,099 and the Ai 500 is $1,870. We also list a certified ex-demo Zip Navigator AT at $1,490. See every remote control golf buggy.
MGI Ai Navigator GPS+ and Halo (follow-me)
The Ai Navigator range is the top of the MGI lineup. It uses GPS to follow you around the course. The Ai Navigator GPS+ is $2,422 and the Ai Navigator Halo is $2,762. Browse the GPS and follow buggies.
