Built for Travel, Transport and Everyday Use
Whether you’re travelling by car, train or plane, the Q50R Carbon is designed to make journeys easier. When folded, the powerchair measures just 370mm in length and includes a transport strap to help keep it securely folded during lifting and transport. The removable lithium-ion battery weighs just 1.4kg and can be charged separately from the chair when required.
The Q50R Carbon’s lithium-ion battery is approved for air transport, although airline and carrier requirements should always be checked before travelling.

Despite its compact size, the chair remains capable outdoors, with 250W brushless motors, up to 24km range with an optional second battery and the ability to climb kerbs up to 40mm.
