Wheelchair Accessible Volkswagen Caddy

Wheelchair Accessible Volkswagen Caddy’s are specially designed or converted from regular models, for the use of persons in wheelchairs. Minivans and SUVs are the preferred and most widely accepted type of vehicle for this purpose and the Volkswagen Caddy is a very popular chopice, owing to the size which is suitable for easy access and the cabin that is roomy enough to accommodate all sizes of wheelchairs.

Typical features of a WAV include: manually operated or automatic ramps, wheelchair tie-downs, rear or side access to the vehicle and lowered floor to create more space for sufficient headroom. Since individual preferences and habits vary, there are different types of WAVs with varying design features to choose from.

It is almost impossible to make a choice of a wheelchair accessible Volkswagen Caddy without the input of its intended user. Thre is no need to transfer from the wheelchair to the car seat – with a WAV you can remain seated either in the rear or as an up front passenger.

“With five seats as standard, this practical, spacious and family-friendly vehicle impresses from every angle.”

The wheelchair accessible Volkswagen Caddy takes these attributes and focuses on extending them seamlessly into the wheelchair accessible aspects of our vehicle. It is our aim throughout to produce a conversion that is both practical and stylish, with an attention to detail that provides the same high-quality look and feel throughout the vehicle.

Generally, wheelchair disabled vehicles can be classified into two broad groups: Wheelchair Passenger Vehicles and Wheelchair Accessible Vehicles for Drivers.

The design of this type of vehicle makes provision for wheelchair passengers to travel safely and pleasantly, either while seated in their wheelchairs or the vehicles’ seats they are transferred to. In other words, this class of vehicles cannot be driven by persons in wheelchairs. The taste and preferences of the intended wheelchair passenger will dictate the type and specification of the wheelchair Volkswagen Caddy. Accordingly, the WAV can be designed to allow for internal transfer if it is required.

The advent of these vehicles literally removes any driving restriction of wheelchair users as you can drive the vehicle from seated in a wheelchair. With these specially designed vehicles, people with disability can now drive from the driver’s position in their wheelchairs or transfer from their wheelchair to either the regular driver’s seat or to a special flexible mechanized chair that can be controlled to move in all directions.

The popularity of this type of unique vehicles with special navigation controls that can be easily operated is on the rise, thanks to the freedom, independence and the sheer joy it gives persons in wheelchairs. Wheelchair accessible vehicles for drivers such as conversion vans, minivans and SUVs are available in various sizes, makes and models at The Accessible Planet website.
