Pick it up. Go on, actually pick it up.

That’s what we say to every customer who walks into our showroom and sees the Carbon Flyer for the first time. Because until you lift it with your own hands, the number doesn’t mean anything. Eleven kilograms. For an electric wheelchair. Most people lift it, look at us, and say the same thing: “Is that it?”

That’s it.

Why the weight matters more than you think

Here’s what changes when your wheelchair weighs 11kg instead of 20kg or 25kg. You stop needing to plan around it. You stop calculating whether the car boot has enough room, whether your daughter can manage the lift, whether the day trip is worth the effort of getting everything in and out. You just go. The Carbon Flyer folds quickly, loads easily, and travels without drama. That’s not a feature. That’s freedom.

The frame is carbon fibre, the same material used in aircraft and high-performance racing. It’s not light because corners were cut. It’s light because the engineering is exceptional. Carbon fibre gives you a frame that is stronger than steel at a fraction of the weight, and it will hold that strength over years of daily use. This is a serious piece of kit, built to last.

Everything else it gets right

The 10Ah battery gives you up to 9 miles of range, which covers most days without a second thought. Top speed is 4mph, the joystick is intuitive from the first use, and both the armrests and footrests adjust to fit you properly. The seat is 42cm wide with a 40cm depth, giving you genuine comfort rather than just adequate space. And it runs in both electric and manual mode, so you have options whatever the day asks of you.

At 58cm wide, it moves through doorways and tight spaces without the constant recalculating that wider chairs demand.

Come in and feel the difference

We brought the Carbon Flyer into the Parkgate Mobility range because we knew our customers deserved to see what lightweight electric mobility actually feels like in 2026. Not read about it. Feel it. Hold it. Sit in it and drive it around our showroom floor.

That’s the invitation. Come in. Pick it up yourself. Let our team set it up properly for you, answer every question, and show you exactly why this chair has stopped so many of our customers in their tracks.

Finance is available, and if you’re a Motability customer, call us first and we’ll guide you through the whole process from start to finish.
