Drive-in move me

After my stroke two years ago, my husband purchased a Renault Kangoo 1.6 petrol, automatic, Lewis Reed conversion with ramp to transport me in my electric wheelchair. The conversion necessitates the halving of the petrol tank. Petrol consumption is 32mpg, giving a range of just over 100 miles between fill-ups. My queries are: Is there a conversion available that does not have a halved tank (petrol or diesel)? And, is it possible that the chair user can have unrestricted views, as at present I can only see hedges or halves of buildings? I await your comments and recommendations with interest,
