Motability is a UK charity that supports people with disabilities to live more independently. Since 1977, it has helped millions access affordable, reliable mobility solutions that fit everyday life.
Through the Motability Scheme, people with qualifying allowances can lease a car, mobility scooter, or electric wheelchair. Payments are simple and the package is worry-free.
Who Is Motability?
Motability was founded to give disabled people greater freedom through access to suitable transport. It is now one of the UK’s most trusted charities and works nationwide with customers, dealers, and manufacturers.
How the Motability Scheme Works
The scheme is a lease paid from your government mobility allowance. Motability receives the payment directly, so you do not manage the transfer yourself.
You can apply if you receive one of the following and have at least 12 months remaining:
- Higher Rate Mobility Component of Disability Living Allowance (DLA)
- Enhanced Rate Mobility Component of Personal Independence Payment (PIP)
- War Pensioners’ Mobility Supplement (WPMS)
- Armed Forces Independence Payment (AFIP)
What the Scheme Includes
The lease covers essential running costs to keep you moving with confidence:
- Insurance
- Servicing, maintenance, and repairs
- Breakdown assistance
- Tyre and battery replacement
