WAV Conversions We Offer

Customisation is a cornerstone of wheelchair-accessible cars. Different conversion types give you total control depending on mobility needs and budget.

Underfloor Lifts

Underfloor lifts are one of the most popular conversion options that we offer. They are stowed out of sight under the vehicle, making them easy to operate and unobtrusive. Perfect for those who require consistent wheelchair access, underfloor lifts offer smooth entry and exit without taking up space inside the vehicle.

Inboard Lifts

Inboard lifts are a more affordable alternative. While they may take up some space inside the vehicle, they are more straightforward in terms of maintenance and cleaning. Inboard lifts are a great choice for those looking for a reliable lift without a big upfront cost.

Ramps

For those who don’t need wheelchair access every day, ramps might be the best option. They do require manual operation and often take up some interior space, but they also provide a more economical solution for occasional use. However, ramp-equipped WAVs might also mean sacrificing a row of seats to accommodate the equipment.

Turny Seats

Turny seats give you a unique solution for those who prefer to be seated outside the vehicle before entering. A motorised seat lift lets the user get positioned outside before being lifted into place inside. Turny seats provide an elegant, space-saving option to maximise comfort and ease of use.

 

 

How much does a WAV conversion cost?

The cost of a wheelchair accessible vehicle conversion depends on the type of conversion and the vehicle itself. Underfloor lifts and turny seats tend to sit at the higher end due to the engineering involved, while ramps and inboard lifts are typically more affordable options. Leasing a WAV through GKL means the conversion cost is built into one predictable monthly payment, rather than a large upfront cost. Get a quote for pricing tailored to your needs.
