Our car boot scooters are made up of five main parts that can be assembled in a matter of minutes. They are small enough to fit into an auto boot truck, van, or van.
The Freerider Luggie, for example, is one of the lightest and smallest models that can be folded to fit in the rear of the hatchback or the boot of a car. This means that family members or a friend can easily lift the scooter in to the car and then take it out again whenever they'd like to use it.
It's a simple way to get the scooter into a car and also will save the driver a lot of time and energy in the long run. Some models have a storage compartment to store your spare batteries and other accessories in there for use when you are out and about.
A ramp that folds down is another popular option. It can be folded up when not in use to save space in your car. This is particularly useful for mobility scooters that are quite tall, because it allows you to select the appropriate incline for putting it in the boot.
If a ramp does not work for you, consider using a hoist. This lets you lift a scooter or powerchair inside the boot of your car with the click of an button. Hoists like these are simple to install and require no permanent modifications, meaning they can be used on multiple vehicles at once.
For many people, getting a scooter into a boot can be a problem.
