Is This Right for Me?
Not sure if this chair fits your needs?
Start here.
If you want a compact electric wheelchair that feels premium and practical, IQ-Carbon is designed for everyday independence at home and out on the pavement. It’s a reassuring choice when you need a folding powerchair that stores neatly and travels well.
✅ A good fit if you:
- Mix indoor + outdoor use — smooth manoeuvring through doorways, shops and pavements
- Want seating comfort — 51 cm (20 in) seating width with a supportive cushion
- Need a portable wheelchair for car boot — folds to 80 × 34 × 59 cm (fits many hatchbacks)
- Prefer confident control — detachable all-direction joystick for precise steering
- Value stability + safety — electromagnetic braking and a Class 2 invalid carriage speed of 4 mph
- Want added convenience built-in headlight for dusk visibility and USB charging for phone/electronics
- Travel or store often — choose standard fold or the trolley handle version for easier rolling through airports, hotels and lifts
⚠️ May not be ideal if you:
- Regular off-road use (deep mud or rough tracks) — the IQ-Carbon electric wheelchair is built for pavements, indoor floors, and everyday outdoor paths like firm grass, gravel, and bricks.
- Can’t lift 17.5 kg —the heaviest section may require a helper or boot lift
- Need complex clinical positioning — this compact electric wheelchair is not a specialist rehab/tilt-in-space chair
If you’re unsure, our team will help you decide before you order.
* Range varies with user weight, terrain, temperature and driving style.
** Battery acceptance rules vary by airline/cruise operator—always confirm before travel.

- Attach Joystick Locks in place. Slide the joystick into the bracket slot, tighten the hand-knob, and connect the single cable pin securely.
