Constables Mobility - leading the way again
Constables Mobility is the world's first company to
enter into a Multi-Stage Build Agreement with Peugeot
and in effect become a partner of the international
car manufacturer and supplier. It is a culmination of
years of hard work in the industry and a determined
desire to be at the forefront of design and
technology that has led to this achievement and the
start of a professional relationship within the
realms of wheelchair accessible vehicle solutions.
Coincidentally, 20 years earlier another world first
was obtained when
Carchair
became the first specially designed and adapted
wheelchair to be crash tested for use in a vehicle.
The initial vehicle range to be included in the
Multi-Stage Build Agreement between Constables
Mobility and Peugeot is the
Tepee
- an attractive and versatile MPV. With unique access
to technical data, engineering drawings and vehicle
prototypes, Constables Mobility has been able to
study and understand the design, development and
build of the Tepee prior to finalising the
specification of their rear access
Openroad
wheelchair solution. Limiting any alteration to the
original production line vehicle and working with
Peugeot’s actual data has resulted in a wheelchair
accessible vehicle that has been created and tested
to optimum standards of safety, functionality and
durability. A precedent has now been set for the
future.
20 years previously, on 30th October 1987 to be precise, Carchair became the world's first wheelchair to be crash tested. This revolutionary idea of transforming a fully functional wheelchair into a comfortable and safe car seat has continued to be developed and produced over the years to become one of the most popular solutions on the market for upfront non-transfer wheelchair travel. One of the unique selling points of Carchair is its ease of use and the fact that the wheels are retracted beneath the seat and do not need to be stowed separately within the vehicle.
With advances in scientific data and technological procedures, Constables Mobility continues to lead the way in the design and manufacturer of wheelchair accessible vehicle solutions.
