The Lightest Choice for Uncompromised Freedom and Safety

What if a wheelchair could be so light it felt like an extension of your lifestyle, rather than a burden? The Drive Ultra Lightweight Self-Propelled Wheelchair is engineered to answer that question. Tipping the scales at under 13kg, this is one of the lightest self-propelled wheelchairs on the market, designed for those who refuse to let weight be a barrier to their independence. It combines this featherlight portability with clever features and a unique dual-braking system, offering a complete solution for safe, confident, and effortless mobility.

Redefining ‘Lightweight’

At under 13kg, this wheelchair is a game-changer. This significant weight reduction, achieved through its advanced aluminium frame, makes a real-world difference every single day. It means less strain for you or a family member when lifting it into a car. It means more spontaneity for travel and days out. The chair also features a half-folding back and quick-release rear wheels, allowing it to become even lighter and more compact for storage and transport, making it the ultimate travel-ready companion.

Dual-Brake System for Total Confidence

This chair’s standout feature is its intelligent dual-braking system, providing security for everyone. For the user, there are easily accessible parking brakes to ensure the chair is locked securely in place when stationary. For an attendant or carer, a separate set of cable brakes are mounted on the push handles. These operate like bicycle brakes, giving the attendant intuitive control over speed when navigating slopes or ramps. This dual system ensures total confidence and safety in any situation.

Intelligent Design for Everyday Life

Every element of the Ultra Lightweight wheelchair is designed for convenience. The armrests are shaped to allow you to sit closer to tables and desks. The footrests swing out of the way to make getting in and out of the chair safer and easier. The padded nylon upholstery delivers comfort on the move and is simple to wipe clean, ensuring your wheelchair is as easy to live with as it is to propel.
