Electric hoists
These physically lift you in and out of the vehicle. They include a permanent mount and three parts that fit together easily.
You may prefer this to a Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle (WAVWheelchair Accessible Vehicle) as it lets you sit in the seat next to the driver.
Swivel seats
These make it easier for you to get in and out of your vehicle. They can be manual or motorised and fitted to either the driver or passenger side.
There are permanent swivel seats and wheelchair swivel seats. They can only be fitted in some vehicles.
Side steps
To help you step up into the driver or passenger seat of a large vehicle safely you might be able to have a manual or automatic powered side step fitted.
These can be fitted in various positions to most vehicles. They're stored securely under the vehicle when they’re not being used.
Transfer plates
You can have one of these fitted to the side of your vehicle seat to help you get in and out.
This is a smooth surface that you sit on between getting out of your wheelchair and into your vehicle. You then fold the transfer plate away until you're ready to get out.
