Purpose and function of the wheelchair

Electrically driven wheelchairs are intended as a mobility aid for people who cannot walk, or can walk only with great difficulty.
The wheelchairs have front-wheel drive. The maximum slope that can be taken downhill is: for the Midway 8º (13,7%), for the
Antibes 9º (15,4%) and for the Atlantic 7º (12%).
The maximum range for the models Midway and Antibes is *40 km, if the circumstances are ideal. For the Atlantic, this range is *25
km. In reality, it may be lower, depending on the weather, the age of the batteries, the body weight, and the number of hills and
slopes to be climbed.
The maximum speed for the Midway is 10 km/hr, for the Antibes 7 km/hr, and for the Atlantic 9 km/hr.
