ReplyDeleteWhat price would you say the C1000 DS electric
ReplyDeletewheelchair has which is a tilt and space chair.
Thank You
I was told my power wheelchair will be $35,000. and thats not
ReplyDeletea high teck power wheelchair, it has no resperator tray or
special driving controls, a normal joy stick is coming for
that price, it is a tilt and space which is why it costs that
much. A basic powerwheelchair with just the wheels
having power is $10,500. if I was less disabled and
could walk a little.. TDX-SP Invacare
What price would you say the C1000 DS electric wheelchair
has. Thank You
would you guess $50,000. for this power wheelchair?
ReplyDeleteI bet it costs $50,000.
ReplyDeleteIs the space inside the vehicle large. To fit wheelchair with shopping basket attach to wheelchair?
ReplyDeleteGod Bless you Stacy. I get my health care up at the West Palm VA and I am amazed when I watch what some of the vets go through to get in and out of their vehicles and wheel chairs. This looks to me to be a giant step forward. JT
ReplyDeleteAnd one more thing NO WAY NEAR FAST ENOUGH, has to go at least 70 kph, or there's no point.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea, but I would need a trailer or something, where would i put my scooter/gopher that I need to get around the shops and stuff, & what about passengers how do they fit into the car.
ReplyDeletei like it but i would only be able to drive it half of the year. it doesn't look like it would go in the snow very well. i'm in Michigan lol
ReplyDeleteI like the Kenguru, I hope i can drive this.
ReplyDeleteIf any one these big companies (Ford, Chevrolet, Chrysler, Toyota, Honda, Nissan+++) gave a damn about the wheelchair users they could've built a $6000 2-passenger, rear-ramp vehicle like SMART car capable of freeway speeds. With a twin-turbo direct injection 1-Litre diesel at 80mpg.

Yeah Trace but imagine the price by the time you get one from an agent here. My US$3000 (in the US) chair cost AU$5250 to buy from an agent here at a time when our dollar was worth US$1.08. Serious markup (read rip-off) by many US companies selling in Australia.
ReplyDeleteMight be fine for you Chuck if you have a powerchair. What of the people with manual chairs who just want a city car?
ReplyDeleteYea this would be great! If you wanted a walk in the park.
ReplyDeleteWhat would happen if one of those Chevy Caprice "shoebox" cars t-boned it?
Well, on a 45mph or less road, it'll be safer than riding a bicycle.
ReplyDeleteYou know whats funny about electric vehicles? They arent green. Where do you think most electricity comes from? Gas powered plants. -_-
ReplyDeleteIt has such a short wheel base, you could apply hub motors on all 4 wheels, limit the angle of your ackerman steering, and supplement the remainder of your control steering with skid steering of all four wheels. (Seeing that the owner uses a wheelchair, this is something she probably already considered). It would require sophisgated software of the ECM. Being
ReplyDelete1) they are a start up company. they probably don't have money to make anything more powerful at the moment.
ReplyDelete2) Does it have power steering? probably not, according to the video they are looking to build a powered joy stick model. .

ReplyDeleteDoes it have power steering because I couldn't steer that. Why does it have to be so small and unpowerful.
ReplyDeleteNot to be mean but, why wouldn't you just just drive your wheelchair somewhere because the one I have has more power than that little car!

ReplyDeleteWhat a great innovation. We have been looking at retrofitting a Smart Car with the same idea. Maybe it might be a good partnership.
ReplyDeletepretty cool, but i think in a crash this would mean certain death.
ReplyDeleteLove watching this video. Hope to see larger Kengurus that can handle 55mph in USA and have room for groceries or an extra passenger.
