What sort of wheelchair accessible vehicle should I look at for my disabled husband?

I’m looking for my first WAV to transport my husband and his mobility scooter and our dog, what are my options?

Asked on 4 October 2024 by Monica

Answered by David Ross
We would recommend looking at van-derived cars, as these generally offer excellent space for the money and they are a popular choice for WAV conversions, so converters have plenty of experience working with them. We would suggest looking at van-based cars such as the Ford Tourneo Connect, Citroen Berlingo, Vauxhall Combo Life and Volkswagen Caddy.
