Brotherwood adds popular Morelife Volkswagen Caddy WAV to the Motability Scheme
Wheelchair accessible vehicle (WAV) specialist Brotherwood has added its popular ‘Morelife’ wheelchair access conversion for the new Volkswagen Caddy to the Motability Scheme.
The Caddy Morelife features a flat, level lowered floor, enabling the wheelchair user to travel centrally, between two rear passenger seats, for optimal comfort and inclusion. The compact VW Caddy conversion seats 3-4 as well as space for one wheelchair user.
Claiming to be the most spacious on the market, the Brotherwood conversion is offers 56” of internal headroom – meaning even taller wheelchair users or those with larger powered wheelchairs can travel in a compact, car-like vehicle.
Access is via a short, lightweight, counterbalanced rear access ramp, with an optional winch system relieving the effort of pushing. Brotherwood’s unique STORQ system automatically adds tension to the rear wheelchair restraints – ensuring a safe and stable ride, and reducing the time and effort needed to secure the wheelchair.
By travelling seated in their wheelchair, the wheelchair user and their family enjoy stress-free journeys without the hassle of lifting or transferring into a standard car seat. Brotherwood’s inclusive layout ensures that the wheelchair user travels as part of the family, centrally and as close to the front seats as possible.
The Volkswagen Caddy Life is popular with wheelchair users looking for a spacious, comfortable vehicle, with a compact, easy-to-drive footprint that makes everyday driving and parking a breeze.
Brotherwood, an Integrated Partner of Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, are a market leader in wheelchair accessible vehicle design, and believe that every WAV should prioritise comfort, inclusion and safety for the wheelchair user. Earlier this year, Brotherwood hosted an exclusive WAV show for wheelchair users to test drive vehicles. The firm also offers free home demonstrations nationwide.
