The Aerolux is the lightest Travel Buggy at about 33 lbs, built with carbon fiber and designed for people who want something easy to lift and travel with. The City 2 Plus is heavier and more robust, with a wider seat, more room between the arms, and a higher weight capacity. It feels more stable for everyday use and longer outings. The best way to choose is to try them in person at our South Surrey store so you can compare comfort, weight, and portability side by side. All 3 are still great for airlines.

Folding power wheelchairs at our store usually offer a driving range of 15 to 25 km per charge. The exact distance depends on the battery size, the user’s weight, the terrain, and how fast you drive. Lighter models are great for quick outings and appointments, while models with larger batteries can handle longer days out. You can visit our South Surrey showroom to compare different options and see which range makes the most sense for your daily routine.

Yes. Most folding power wheelchairs are approved for air travel and use airline safe lithium batteries. The battery usually needs to be removed and carried in the cabin, and the chair is checked at the gate the same way strollers and walkers are handled. Each airline has its own rules for battery size and labeling, so we help customers understand what to expect before flying. If you bring your model into our South Surrey store, we can show you how to fold it properly and prepare the battery for airport staff.

Most folding power wheelchairs weigh between 33 and 60 pounds depending on the model and battery size. Carbon fiber models are on the lighter end and are easier to lift into a trunk, while sturdier models have more range and support but require more strength to load. If lifting is a concern, we can show you the lightest options in our South Surrey store and help you test how each one folds and fits into your vehicle. Many customers bring their car so they can try loading the chair before making a decision.

Yes. Most folding power wheelchairs are built to handle smooth outdoor surfaces such as sidewalks, malls, parks, and community areas. They are not designed for rough trails or uneven terrain, but they perform well for everyday trips outside the home. Larger wheels and stronger motors will give you better stability outdoors, while lighter models feel best on flatter surfaces. If you visit our South Surrey store, we can show you which models are most comfortable and safe for the type of outdoor use you have in mind.

Some funding programs in BC may help with the cost of a power wheelchair, but it depends on the user’s medical needs and the program they apply through. Most folding power wheelchairs are considered lifestyle or convenience models, so they may not qualify for full medical funding. We can guide you on what options exist and help you understand what documents you might need. If funding is not available, many customers choose folding chairs because they are easier to transport and offer more independence without requiring complex approvals.

Weight capacity varies by model. Most folding power wheelchairs support anywhere from 250 to 395 pounds depending on the design, materials, and frame strength. Lightweight carbon fiber chairs usually have a lower capacity, while heavier folding models offer more support and space. When you visit our South Surrey store, we can show you the exact capacity for each model so you can choose a chair that feels safe, comfortable, and right for your body.

Yes. You can try multiple folding power wheelchairs in our South Surrey showroom to see which one feels the most comfortable and easy to use. Test driving helps you understand turning radius, seat comfort, folding style, and how the chair handles on different surfaces. Most customers make their decision quickly once they try a few models side by side. You are welcome to bring your caregiver or family member and take your time comparing options.
