Europe’s First Autonomous Toro Fairway Mower Installed at Würzburg Golf Club

German dealer training showcases the future of autonomous and all‑electric mowing in golf

Golf Club Würzburg has become the first golf facility in Europe to install and actively use the autonomous Toro Greensmaster® eTriFlex®3360 with GeoLink™ Mow on its fairways — marking a major milestone for innovation in golf course maintenance.

To support this launch, the Toro Germany team hosted a two‑day technical and sales training event in April 2026, welcoming ten authorised golf dealers from across the country. The programme combined detailed classroom sessions with extensive live demonstrations on the course, giving dealers a close look at how autonomous mowing technology is already transforming daily operations.

A pioneering partnership in German golf

Club President Bernhard May highlighted the significance of hosting the event:

“As the first golf course in Europe to use this system on a daily basis, it was a particular honour for us to make our fairways available as a live demonstration area. Following in-depth technical presentations in the morning, the programme moved straight out onto the course – exactly where innovation in course maintenance must prove itself today. At this event, too, our collaboration with Toro’s highly qualified team once again proved to be an exemplary success. As a very satisfied customer, it was also an honour for us to host this dealer training event in Würzburg.”

Würzburg Golf Club has long been recognised for its commitment to forward‑thinking course management. Its early adoption of autonomous mowing reinforces its role as a leader in shaping the future of golf in Germany.

Training designed for real‑world application

The two‑day programme focused on the capabilities of the Greensmaster eTriFlex 3360 with GeoLink Mow — the first autonomous triple‑spindle fairway mower of its kind. Dealers explored:

• Precision navigation and repeatable cut quality
• Labour‑saving workflows and operational efficiency
• Safety systems and autonomous route planning
• Practical setup, calibration and maintenance

The live demonstrations on the fairways provided a clear view of how autonomy can support teams facing increasing expectations around course presentation, sustainability and resource management.

Micha Moerder, Senior Sales Manager for Germany at Toro, expressed his appreciation:

“We would like to extend our sincere thanks to our long-standing partner, Golf Club Würzburg, for providing the venue and the golf course. The excellent conditions played a key role in ensuring the successful delivery of the presentation and practical sessions for the new system.”

Why the Greensmaster® eTriFlex® 3360 matters

The Greensmaster eTriFlex 3360 represents the next generation of all‑electric greens mowing. With no hydraulic fluid, all‑electric traction, steering and cutting, and Toro’s EnergySmart® technology, it delivers noticeably quieter operation, lower running costs and a cleaner, more sustainable maintenance approach.

Its Double A‑Arm Suspension and industry‑leading Flex technology allow the cutting units to follow contours with exceptional precision, while the Radius Dependent Speed (RDS™) system and Lift‑In‑Turn feature help virtually eliminate “Triplex‑Ring” for a consistently smooth, tournament‑ready finish.

Features such as the Lift‑Gate Footrest, Tool‑Free QuickChange™ cutting units and Auto‑Brake on Operator Dismount further enhance productivity and ease of use for course teams — making the eTriFlex 3360 a powerful solution for clubs looking to modernise their maintenance operations.

Driving the next chapter of innovation

The successful installation and daily use of the autonomous Greensmaster 3360 at Würzburg Golf Club marks an important step forward for the German golf market. As interest in automation and data‑driven maintenance continues to grow, this project provides a real‑world example of how advanced technology can support course teams today.

Toro and Würzburg Golf Club look forward to continuing their collaboration and advancing innovation for golf facilities across Germany.
