Royale Air Carbon Fibre Heavy Duty Powerchair ( SWL 180kg )
A foldable powerchair that combines lightweight portability with greater space and comfort.
The Royale Air Carbon Fibre Heavy Duty Powerchair combines lightweight portability with bariatric-friendly support. Featuring a wider 53 cm seat and a 180 kg safe working load, it provides comfortable powered mobility while remaining easy to fold, transport and store.
The Royale Air Carbon Fibre Heavy Duty Powerchair is designed for those who need a higher-capacity powered mobility solution that remains portable. Its carbon fibre frame delivers strength and durability while maintaining a lightweight design.
With a 53 cm seat width and a 180 kg safe working load, the Heavy Duty model provides comfortable powered mobility for individuals who need additional space and support.
The X-fold frame allows the powerchair to fold quickly into a compact size, while the half-folding backrest further reduces storage and transport space. This makes the Royale Air well-suited to car travel, public transport and storage in smaller homes or apartments.
Swing-up armrests support safer sideways transfers, while flip-up footplates and removable legrests reduce obstruction during entry and exit. Anti-tip wheels and a built-in seatbelt provide added stability and reassurance during everyday use.
The lightweight lithium-ion battery is removable for off-board charging and delivers up to 12 km of travel on a full charge, with an optional battery pack to extend travel range. Intuitive joystick control supports smooth handling indoors and outdoors, including in tighter spaces.
By combining bariatric support with a lightweight, foldable design, the Royale Air offers greater accessibility without compromising portability.
