Product Details

The OAS Air Ultra Lightweight Folding Electric Wheelchair is designed for people who want the portability of a lightweight folding power chair without sacrificing comfort, stability, or seating space. Weighing approximately 36 pounds without the batteries, the Air Ultra combines a spacious 17.8-inch seat, 300-pound weight capacity, dual removable lithium batteries, and compact one-step folding into a travel-ready mobility solution built for everyday life.

Unlike many ultra-lightweight electric wheelchairs that prioritize minimum weight over user comfort, the Air Ultra offers additional room between the armrests, a supportive padded seating system, and a durable aluminum-alloy frame that remains easy to transport. Whether you're navigating your home, shopping with family, visiting friends, enjoying parks, or traveling by vehicle, the Air Ultra is designed to deliver reliable powered mobility while remaining remarkably portable.

At Independent Living Superstore, we carefully select mobility products that solve real-world challenges. The Air Ultra stood out because it provides a balance that many users struggle to find—a lightweight folding electric wheelchair with a larger seating area, higher weight capacity, removable batteries, and dependable everyday performance without the bulk of traditional power chairs.

Why Choose the OAS Air Ultra?

Many lightweight electric wheelchairs are designed primarily to minimize weight, often resulting in narrower seating areas and lower weight capacities. The OAS Air Ultra takes a different approach by offering a roomier seating position and greater everyday comfort while remaining exceptionally easy to fold, transport, and store.

Its thoughtful combination of portability and comfort makes it an excellent choice for users who need more room than many travel power chairs provide but still want a wheelchair that can be lifted into a vehicle, folded in seconds, and taken on everyday outings. Dual removable lithium batteries provide extended travel capability, while the compact folded profile helps simplify storage at home or during transportation.

  • Approximately 36 pounds without batteries for easier lifting
  • Spacious 17.8-inch seat with approximately 18.9 inches between the armrests
  • 300-pound maximum user weight capacity
  • One-step folding frame for convenient transport and storage
  • Dual removable lithium-ion batteries for extended mobility
  • Compact folded dimensions for vehicle transport and home storage
  • Rear-wheel drive with intuitive joystick control
  • Electromagnetic braking system for smooth stopping
  • Designed for everyday indoor use and paved outdoor environments

Available in Six Colors, Including New Lavender

The Air Ultra comes in six colors, so you can choose the look that suits you best: the new Lavender, plus Cherry Blossom, Sage Green, Ebony, Tangerine, and Ocean Blue. Select your color at checkout.

Who Is the OAS Air Ultra Best For?

The Air Ultra is an excellent choice for individuals seeking a lightweight powered wheelchair that offers more seating space than many ultra-portable models. Its combination of portability, comfort, and dependable everyday performance makes it especially well suited for:

  • Adults who want a lightweight electric wheelchair that is easier to transport than traditional power chairs.
  • Users who need additional seating room while maintaining a compact folding design.
  • Individuals weighing up to 300 pounds who want a travel-friendly mobility solution.
  • People who regularly transport their wheelchair in a car, SUV, or crossover.
  • Travelers looking for removable lithium batteries and convenient one-step folding.
  • Everyday users navigating homes, shopping centers, sidewalks, paved walking paths, medical appointments, and family outings.
  • Caregivers who need a folding power wheelchair that can be loaded and unloaded more easily than heavier traditional models.

If your primary goal is obtaining the lightest possible electric wheelchair regardless of seating size, you may also wish to compare the OAS Air Pro. If you prefer additional room, greater weight capacity, and enhanced everyday comfort while remaining highly portable, the Air Ultra is often the better choice.

Lightweight Folding Design Built for Everyday Travel

One of the biggest advantages of the OAS Air Ultra is its ability to combine everyday comfort with exceptional portability. Unlike many traditional power wheelchairs that can weigh well over 100 pounds, the Air Ultra weighs approximately 36 pounds after both batteries are removed, making it significantly easier for many users and caregivers to lift into a vehicle.

The simple one-step folding frame allows the wheelchair to collapse in seconds without complicated disassembly. Once folded, its compact profile takes up far less storage space than a conventional power chair, making it easier to store at home, transport in many SUVs, crossovers, hatchbacks, and sedans, or bring along for vacations and everyday outings.

Before purchasing any folding wheelchair, we always recommend measuring your vehicle's trunk opening rather than relying solely on cargo capacity. While the Air Ultra folds into a compact package, every vehicle is different, and confirming available space helps ensure the best fit.

Compact Storage Without Compromising Comfort

The Air Ultra folds to approximately 26.0 × 13.8 × 28.3 inches, allowing it to fit into many vehicle cargo areas while occupying less floor space when stored at home. Because the batteries remove independently, many users choose to transport the wheelchair in two lighter pieces rather than lifting the entire chair at once.

  • One-step folding design
  • Approximately 36 pounds without batteries
  • Approximately 44 pounds with both batteries installed
  • Compact folded dimensions for easier storage
  • Removable batteries reduce lifting weight
  • No complicated disassembly required
  • Ideal for everyday transportation and travel

Dual Removable Lithium Battery System

The OAS Air Ultra includes two removable 24V lithium-ion batteries designed to provide dependable everyday mobility while allowing each battery to be removed individually for charging or transportation. Instead of permanently mounting a large battery pack beneath the chair, the Air Ultra's battery system helps reduce lifting weight and simplifies handling during transport.

When both batteries are available for use, the manufacturer lists a maximum travel range of up to approximately 15 miles under ideal operating conditions. Actual range varies depending on user weight, terrain, temperature, speed, battery condition, tire resistance, and driving habits.

Because the batteries are removable, users can also purchase an additional battery for extended outings or to reduce downtime between charging cycles.

Travel-Friendly Design

The Air Ultra was designed with travel in mind. Its compact folded profile, removable batteries, and lightweight construction make it well suited for road trips, family vacations, shopping, medical appointments, and everyday transportation.

If you plan to fly with the Air Ultra, we recommend contacting your airline before travel to verify their current requirements for transporting lithium-ion batteries and powered mobility devices. Airline policies can vary, and advance notification helps ensure a smoother travel experience.

Smooth Rear-Wheel-Drive Performance for Everyday Mobility

The OAS Air Ultra combines a lightweight folding frame with a responsive rear-wheel-drive system designed for controlled everyday mobility. Two 150W brushless motors provide quiet, efficient power for navigating homes, stores, medical facilities, sidewalks, accessibility ramps, and other firm, stable surfaces.

The wheelchair reaches a manufacturer-listed maximum speed of approximately 3.7 mph. Five adjustable speed settings allow the user to select a slower pace for confined indoor spaces or increase the speed for open, paved areas. The approximately 28.9-inch turning radius supports maneuverability in hallways, stores, dining areas, and other environments where space may be limited.

  • Dual 150W brushless motors
  • Rear-wheel-drive configuration
  • Maximum forward speed of approximately 3.7 mph
  • Five adjustable speed settings
  • Approximately 28.9-inch turning radius
  • Quiet operation for indoor and everyday community use
  • Electromagnetic braking for controlled stopping
OAS Air Ultra feature close-ups: 360-degree joystick, LED display, flip-up armrests, footrests, flat-free wheels, battery

Intuitive Joystick Control

The Air Ultra uses an easy-to-operate joystick controller that allows the user to manage direction, speed, stopping, and basic wheelchair functions from the armrest. The display provides visible battery and speed information, while clearly marked controls help simplify daily operation.

The joystick can be positioned for right- or left-hand use when installed with the appropriate mounting configuration. The controller also includes a horn, speed adjustment buttons, an integrated light, and a USB charging connection for compatible personal electronics.

  • Responsive 360-degree joystick control
  • Five selectable speed levels
  • Battery-level and speed indicators
  • Integrated horn
  • Built-in light for added visibility
  • USB charging connection for compatible devices
  • Controller can be configured for right- or left-hand operation

Electromagnetic Braking for Controlled Stops

The electromagnetic braking system is designed to engage automatically when the joystick is released. This allows the wheelchair to slow and stop without requiring the user to operate a separate hand brake during powered driving.

Always reduce speed before turning, approaching ramps, navigating uneven transitions, or entering crowded areas. Braking performance can be affected by slope, surface conditions, user weight, speed, and moisture.

Powered and Manual Push Modes

The Air Ultra includes motor-release levers that allow the wheelchair to be placed into powered driving mode or manual push mode. Manual mode enables a caregiver or companion to push the wheelchair when powered operation is not appropriate or when the battery is unavailable.

Both motor-release levers must be placed in the same operating position before use. Never place the wheelchair in manual or freewheel mode while it is on a slope, because the electromagnetic braking system may not hold the chair when the motors are disengaged.

Flat-Free Tires for Everyday Indoor and Outdoor Surfaces

The Air Ultra uses 7-inch solid front tires and 12-inch flat-free rear tires. The larger rear wheels provide traction and stability for common daily environments, while the smaller front casters support responsive steering.

The wheelchair is best suited for firm, stable surfaces such as indoor flooring, low-pile carpet, sidewalks, paved paths, shopping centers, curb ramps, and other maintained accessibility routes. It is not designed as an all-terrain or off-road wheelchair.

Recommended Surfaces

  • Hardwood, tile, vinyl, and similar indoor flooring
  • Low-pile carpet
  • Shopping centers and medical facilities
  • Sidewalks and paved pedestrian paths
  • Properly designed accessibility ramps
  • Firm, dry outdoor surfaces

Surfaces and Conditions to Avoid

  • Sand, mud, and loose gravel
  • Deep or wet grass
  • Snow, ice, and standing water
  • Rough trails and off-road terrain
  • Stairs, escalators, and unprotected drop-offs
  • Steep slopes outside the limits stated in the owner's manual
  • Heavy rain or other wet operating conditions

Roomier Seating for Everyday Comfort

The OAS Air Ultra was developed for users who want the portability of an ultralight folding electric wheelchair but need more seating room than many compact travel chairs provide. Its 17.8-inch seat width and approximately 18.9 inches of clearance between the armrests create a more spacious seating position while maintaining an overall width suitable for many homes and public spaces.

The padded seat and supportive backrest help distribute pressure during everyday use. Padded armrests provide a comfortable place to rest the arms, while the foot supports and lower-leg straps help maintain a more stable seated position.

Comfort and Positioning Features

  • 17.8-inch seat width for additional room through the hips and thighs
  • Approximately 18.9 inches between the armrests
  • Supportive padded seat cushion
  • Contoured backrest designed for everyday support
  • Padded armrests
  • Foot supports with lower-leg positioning straps
  • Included safety belt
  • 300-pound maximum user weight capacity

Weight capacity alone does not determine whether a wheelchair will fit comfortably. Before ordering, measure the user's seated hip width and compare it with the available seat width and armrest clearance. The user should have sufficient room for comfortable clothing without being tightly compressed between the armrests.

Designed to Support Transfers and Daily Routines

The compact frame and accessible seating position can make the Air Ultra practical for common daily routines, including transfers from a bed, lift chair, vehicle seat, or other stable surface. Transfer safety depends on the user's strength, balance, mobility, and need for caregiver assistance.

Always turn the wheelchair off before transferring. Do not stand on the foot supports, and confirm that the chair is on a level surface with the motors engaged in powered mode so the braking system can help prevent unintended movement.

Safety Features for Greater Everyday Confidence

The OAS Air Ultra incorporates multiple safety and stability features intended to support controlled everyday operation. Electromagnetic braking helps stop the chair when the joystick is released, while rear anti-tip wheels provide additional protection against excessive backward tipping.

A safety belt is included to support seated positioning, and the flat-free tires eliminate the concern of pneumatic tire punctures. The lightweight aluminum-alloy frame provides the structural foundation without relying on unsupported material-grade claims.

Key Safety and Reliability Features

  • Electromagnetic braking system
  • Rear anti-tip wheels
  • Included safety belt
  • Flat-free front and rear tires
  • Aluminum-alloy folding frame
  • Dual removable lithium-ion batteries
  • Manual push mode for caregiver assistance
  • Joystick horn and integrated light
  • Lower-leg positioning straps

Important Operating Guidelines

  • Read the complete owner's manual before operating the wheelchair.
  • Practice in a flat, open area before using the chair in confined or crowded spaces.
  • Reduce speed before turns, ramps, doorways, and surface transitions.
  • Do not carry passengers or exceed the 300-pound maximum user weight capacity.
  • Do not stand on the seat, armrests, or foot supports.
  • Turn the power off before transferring into or out of the wheelchair.
  • Do not place the motors in manual mode while the chair is on an incline.
  • Keep the batteries, joystick, wiring, and electrical connections dry.
  • Do not operate the wheelchair in heavy rain, standing water, snow, or icy conditions.
  • Use only the manufacturer-approved charger and compatible replacement batteries.
  • Never use the wheelchair on stairs or escalators.
  • Do not use the Air Ultra as an occupied seat while traveling in a motor vehicle.

Users with significant balance, vision, coordination, cognitive, or positioning concerns should consult an appropriate healthcare professional before selecting or operating a powered wheelchair.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does the OAS Air Ultra weigh, and is it easy to lift into a vehicle?

The OAS Air Ultra is one of the lightest powered wheelchairs in its class, weighing approximately 36 pounds without the battery. With both batteries installed, the total weight is about 44 pounds. Its lightweight aluminum frame makes it much easier to lift into a car than traditional power wheelchairs, though some users may still prefer assistance or a loading ramp depending on their strength.

How far can the OAS Air Ultra travel on a full charge?

The OAS Air Ultra comes with two removable 24V 10.4Ah lithium batteries and provides a manufacturer-rated driving range of up to 15 miles under ideal conditions. Actual range depends on factors such as rider weight, terrain, hills, speed, tire condition, temperature, and how frequently the chair starts and stops during use.

Is the OAS Air Ultra approved for airline travel?

Yes. The removable lithium batteries are designed to meet TSA guidelines for air travel. However, every airline has its own policies regarding lithium batteries and powered mobility devices. Before traveling, contact your airline to confirm its battery requirements and transport procedures to help avoid delays at the airport.

Can the OAS Air Ultra be used outdoors on grass, gravel, or uneven surfaces?

The Air Ultra is designed for both indoor and outdoor use on firm, stable surfaces. It performs well on sidewalks, paved paths, shopping centers, and similar environments. Owners have also reported good performance on compact gravel and wood-chip trails, but the wheelchair is not intended for sand, mud, deep gravel, or rugged off-road terrain.

Will the OAS Air Ultra fit in the trunk of my car?

The OAS Air Ultra folds into a compact package measuring approximately 25.98" × 13.78" × 28.35", allowing it to fit in many car trunks, SUVs, and crossover vehicles. Before purchasing, measure both your trunk opening and available cargo space to ensure the folded chair will fit comfortably.

Is the OAS Air Ultra comfortable for extended daily use?

The Air Ultra features a padded seat, reclining backrest, adjustable armrests, and a lightweight folding frame designed for everyday mobility. Many owners find it comfortable for shopping, travel, and daily outings. Users who spend many consecutive hours in the chair may choose to add an aftermarket seat or back cushion for additional long-term support, depending on their individual seating needs.
