A carbon-fibre electric wheelchair that folds for the car boot. The Fold and Ride Carbon has a carbon-fibre frame and weighs about 13 kg without its battery. It drives with an LCD joystick that shows the battery level, and folds to about 77 × 33 × 72 cm. It is made for getting around indoors and outdoors over short distances.
Always read the label and follow the directions for use.
One 7.8 Ah battery comes with the chair, and it has a second battery box, so an extra battery can be added for longer outings.
Solid tyres, 6.5-inch at the front and 11-inch at the back, have nothing to pump up.
