Is there a vehicle with a powered tailgate that will lift my electric buggy inside?
I am disabled. I use an electric buggy that my wife finds very hard to lift into our car. Do you know a model that has a 2-part powered tailgate that will be able to lift electrically my buggy to the same height as the boot?

Not a powered tailgate, but the Suzuki Grand Vitara has a side opening rear door and the lowest, lipless load floor of any 4WD SUV. The seats roll out of the way and it is available as an automatic. See: www.honestjohn.co.uk/road-tests/suzuki/suzuki-gran.../
The car now has no spare wheel on the rear door, making it lighter.
