Types of Electric Wheelchairs

Lightweight and folding electric wheelchairs are designed for everyday convenience. Many models fold quickly or collapse into compact forms, making them easier to store and transport. These are ideal for users who want independence without the need for bulky equipment or vehicle lifts.

Travel Electric Wheelchairs

Travel electric wheelchairs focus on portability and ease of use. They are typically compact, lightweight, and designed for trips, errands, and transportation in cars or airplanes.

Heavy-Duty Electric Wheelchairs

Heavy-duty electric wheelchairs provide reinforced frames and higher weight capacities. They are built for stability, durability, and long-term use.

All-Terrain Electric Wheelchairs

All-terrain electric wheelchairs are designed for outdoor environments. With larger wheels and stronger motors, they handle grass, gravel, and uneven surfaces more effectively.

Elevating Electric Wheelchairs

Elevating electric wheelchairs allow users to raise their seat height, making it easier to reach countertops, cabinets, and interact at eye level. These are especially useful for improving accessibility in the home.
