Q50R Carbon Blog Banner, the lighter way to travel, coming soon to Derbyshire Mobility

The ever-reliable Q50R folding powerchair has just had an upgrade, introducing the Q50R Carbon Folding Powerchair from Sunrise Medical; the lighter chair for those on the go.

Light, strong, and foldable in seconds, this new, premium powerchair stores snugly away in tight spaces, even with the batteries attached.

Folding Frame Feature

Featuring a carbon fibre frame, a lightweight lithium battery, and weighing just 14.5kg (without batteries). Foldable in just three simple steps:

  • Flip up the clip at the back
  • Fold the footplate and push the backrest downwards straight to the floor
  • Secure together with the transport strap provided

All this with the battery attached.

Measuring 76.7cm in height, 57cm in width, and 37cm in length, folded, the compactness of the Q50R is mindblowing, it will fit just about anywhere. The powerchair is easily movable when folded and standing upwards, thanks to the anti-tip wheels. Rear stabiliser bars also help to prevent the powerchair from tipping over, too.

Once folded, the Q50R Carbon is effortless to lift, making it the perfect travel companion. Ideal to pop in the car boot for the daily commute, family breaks, and long-haul getaways.

Light Yet Powerful

In addition to its lightweightedness, the Q50R Carbon folding powerchair packs the robust and reliable performance that QUICKIE is known for. Exhibiting a maximum user weight of 136kg (21.4 stone), a top speed of 6kph (4mph), and a range of up to 24km (14.9 miles) on a full charge*.

Additionally, the powerchair’s carbon frame naturally flexes over uneven surfaces, providing unique shock-absorbing qualities to deliver a smooth ride.

Unbeatable Battery

The 24V 10Ah Lithium-Ion battery weighs just 1.4kg and has its own charging socket. So, there is no need to unpack the powerchair when it needs to be charged. Furthermore, the battery is IATA Approved for transportation by aircraft**.

Stable And Stylish

Along with its elegant carbon fibre frame, the Q50R Carbon is available in five head-turning accent colours. Take your pick from Blue, Orange, Purple, Red, or Yellow.
