Wheelchair Access Vans

Wheelchair access vans are available in side- and rear-entry models. Each type has its advantages, so the best layout is the one that works best for the particular passenger or driver.

Wheelchair Access Vans: Rear and Side Entry

"...A side-entry model is also compatible, with additional modifications, with a driver's seat replacement for disabled drivers......"

With a rear-entry conversion, the ramp is placed at the back of the vehicle. This allows the wheelchair to be placed in the back or middle row, if there is no back bench. With a side-entry conversion, the wheelchair can be placed in either the middle or in the front passenger space. A side-entry model is also compatible, with additional modifications, with a driver's seat replacement for disabled drivers. Keep in mind that this layout may require special parking, such as handicap spaces.
