TaylorMade won't release a new driver in 2027

Updated November 9, 20262027 news checked November 9, 2026

TaylorMade has moved its drivers and fairway woods to a two-year cycle, so the Qi4D family stays current through 2027.

Key facts

Current line
Qi4D drivers (Qi4D, LS, Max, Max Lite), fairway woods and hybrids
Next driver
Not expected until 2028
History
First year since 2001 that TaylorMade isn't expected to launch a driver
Why
Golfers keep drivers longer, and fitters need time to learn each new lineup

What it means

For buyers, a Qi4D won't look dated next year. It topped MyGolfSpy's 2026 driver test and is Independent Golf Reviews' best overall driver.
