Choosing the Right Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle

When it comes to choosing the right wheelchair accessible vehicle, it’s important to consider your unique mobility needs, travel plans, and the level of comfort and independence you want to maintain on the road. At Wheelaway, we understand that no two journeys are the same, which is why we offer a diverse range of wheelchair accessible vehicles designed to cater to a variety of requirements.

Why Choosing the Right Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle Matters

Selecting the right vehicle is not just about transportation — it’s about ensuring safety, accessibility, and comfort every time you travel. Whether you need extra space for equipment, a more accessible ramp or lift, or flexible seating arrangements for passengers and carers, the right choice can make a world of difference to your travel experience.

Our Range of Wheelchair Accessible Vehicles

At Wheelaway, we proudly offer several wheelchair accessible vehicles, each carefully designed to suit different lifestyles and needs:

🚐 Toyota HiAce

The Toyota HiAce is one of our most popular vehicles, known for its spacious interior and easy rear-entry electric lift. It’s ideal for individuals or families who need ample space for both passengers and mobility equipment, or who have more than one passenger in a wheelchair. The HiAce is also a great choice for group travel or community outings, thanks to its flexible seating configurations, seating up to 8 passengers and 2 wheelchairs.

🚗 Kia Carnival

If you’re after something more stylish and compact, the Kia Carnival is a fantastic choice. This vehicle combines everyday practicality with accessibility features like a lowered floor and rear-entry ramp. It’s perfect for urban driving, shopping trips, and family outings where maneuverability is key. The 2nd row kia even allow the person in the wheelchair to sit right amongst the other passengers and behind the driver!

🚐 Mercedes Sprinter

The Mercedes Sprinter is designed for ultimate comfort and space. With its high roof and wide entry, it’s particularly well-suited for users with larger power wheelchairs or additional medical equipment. It’s also a great option for those who prefer to travel with extra passengers or carers, as it can accommodate multiple seating arrangements.
