Explorer Electric Wheelchair

Explorer Electric Wheelchair

The Explorer electric wheelchair is the full-size, robust chair in our Explorer range. Where the Explorer Air is designed to be light and compact, the Explorer is designed to be solid. It has a bigger battery, stronger motors, larger air-filled tyres and a sturdier frame, so it feels planted on rough paving, grass and long days out.

A 24 V 12 Ah lithium battery (288 Wh) gives 20 to 25 km on a single charge. Twin 250 W brushless motors pull the chair along at up to 8 km/h, and it carries users up to 150 kg.

Built for Comfort Over Distance

Eight shock absorbers and 12-inch air-filled rear tyres soak up broken paving, gravel paths and driveway lips that would jolt a lighter chair. The magnesium-aluminium alloy frame stays rigid under load, so the ride feels steady rather than flexible. As a result, this power wheelchair suits daily outdoor use, not only short trips around the house.

Control and safety are straightforward. The 360-degree joystick steers precisely, and an electromagnetic brake holds the chair the moment you let go, which matters on a slope or a ramp. Gradients of up to 12 degrees are well within reach, while a 60 cm turning radius keeps this motorised wheelchair manageable indoors.

Still a Folding Power Wheelchair

Despite its size, the Explorer electric wheelchair folds in one movement down to 64 x 42 x 80.5 cm, which fits most car boots. It weighs 24.9 kg without its battery, so lifting it into a car is easier with a second person. The battery is also under the 300 Wh limit airlines set for mobility aid batteries, so flying is possible once your airline approves it.
