Latest mobility scooter from Sunrise Medical enables users to embrace an active lifestyle
Mobility solutions provider Sunrise Medical has officially launched a new mobility scooter with a design set to challenge perceptions of mobility aids.
The new Sterling S800 by Scoozy, which was first debuted at Rehacare 2024 in Germany last September, is a modern mobility scooter designed for an active lifestyle.
To enable users to embrace life without limitations, the S800 by Scoozy features four large 18-inch wheels, significantly larger than those on a typical mobility scooter, providing enhanced grip on all surfaces. This allows users to travel comfortably on uneven pavements in the city and venture off the beaten path.
The 50km battery range on the S800 by Scoozy allows users to travel further without worrying about recharging.
With a top speed of 8mph, the S800 by Scoozy can breeze through any urban or rural journey while maintaining complete control and safety.
For optimal comfort, the S800 by Scoozy is equipped with a variety of built-in adjustments that make it easily adaptable to the user, providing an enhanced riding experience.
An adjustable, ergonomically shaped cushioned seat with a backrest, as well as a large, open footwell giving spacious legroom ensure an ideal seating position, while the adaptive suspension system effectively absorbs the shocks of city streets and rugged paths, preventing bouncing and delivering a smooth ride on all surfaces.
The S800 by Scoozy’s design also features a range of safety and accessibility features to foster independence.
This includes the addition of a familiar bicycle-style handlebar, equipped with intuitive controls, helps users navigate all environments easily. The thumb throttle, hand-operated brakes, and multi-adjustable handlebars which include cruise control, ensure complete control while minimising strain on the hand’s and back, letting users enjoy the journey as much as the destination.
Lee Ratican, National Sales Manager at Sunrise Medical, said: “Here at Sunrise Medical, we believe in improving lives by enabling people to embrace life and challenge boundaries – whether it’s being able to shop independently or venturing out on a rural footpath.
“There are a lot of misconceptions out there about traditional mobility scooters. That’s why we’re bringing the Sterling S800 by Scoozy, a modern-style mobility scooter that is sure to catch the eye for all the right reasons whilst being built for everyday adventure.”
The Sterling S800 by Scoozy is available in the UK through authorised retailers. It will also be launching on the Motability Scheme. Potential clients can arrange a test drive to experience its capabilities first hand.
