Handicap vehicles: Compatible with mobility scooters and wheelchairs

Usually, standard vehicles are very uncomfortable for a physically challenged person because room is not enough, they can not access all parts of the vehicle and, most of all, they can not drive them: Mobility gets seriously limited. But handicap vehicles give them back the possibility of ascending and descending the vehicle safely, traveling comfortably and even, driving themselves through specialized controls. Handicap vehicles have plenty of room for wheelchairs and mobility scooters.

NorcalMobility offers a complete guide on handicap vehicles, ramps and lifts, and what to consider when wanting to purchase them. Prices of handicap vehicles (minivans) are $17,000 to $23,000 over standard ones, and used units are also on sale.

Handicap vehicles are either lowered-floor minivans -original floors lowered 10 inches for extra room and easier access- and full-size vans -lowered-floor and raised-roof for more head-room and weight capacity-. Equipped with a ramp that automatically slides out when the vehicle's door opens, handicap vehicles are compatible with wheelchairs and mobility scooters.
