Steady over rough ground, with seating set up just for you

Some powerchairs are happiest on smooth floors. If your days include park paths, uneven pavements and the odd grass verge, you need a chair that stays planted. The Karma Leon R Versus is a rear-wheel-drive powerchair chosen for its extra stability outdoors and over obstacles, paired with seating that can be tailored to complex needs.

The Versus seat takes most aftermarket backrests, cushions and positioning supports, and the chair can be specified with powered tilt, recline, seat lift and legrests. You get the right support at home and the confidence to head out further.

✅ Key Features & Benefits

• Rear-wheel drive for outdoor stability
  Karma designed it for extra stability on uneven ground and over obstacles, so longer trips along paths and pavements feel calm rather than jolting.

• Powered positioning options
  Choose from power tilt (around 45°), recline, a 300 mm seat lift and power legrests. Changing position through the day helps with pressure care and tiredness, and the lift brings you up to chat face to face or reach a high shelf.

• Versus seating with universal rails
  Works with most aftermarket backrests, cushions and supports, so your seating can be matched to your posture now and adapted later.

• Up to 7.5 mph and around 22 miles' range
  Quick enough to keep up with family on a walk, with the distance for a full day out on the larger 80Ah batteries.

• Crash tested to ISO 7176-19
  Approved as a seat in a motor vehicle with the correct restraints, so you can travel in an adapted vehicle without transferring.

• Legrests that extend as they rise
  They follow the natural movement of your legs, which is more comfortable when you raise them to ease swelling or aching.

• VR2 or R-net controls
  Programmable to suit your driving, with R-net able to take specialist controls if your hand function changes.

Colours available

Orange, White or Silver Black.

Who it suits best

• Users who spend a lot of time outdoors on mixed surfaces
• People who need tailored postural support or pressure care
• Anyone wanting powered tilt, recline or lift
• Users up to 21.4 stone (136 kg)

Worth knowing before you buy

Rear-wheel-drive chairs need more room to turn: the Leon R Versus has a turning radius of about 104 cm, so it can feel tight in small hallways, bathrooms and kitchens. It's a large chair weighing 128 kg before batteries, so it needs level access and an adapted vehicle for travel. If you mostly use your chair indoors, a mid-wheel-drive model turns in a much smaller space.

Questions customers ask us

How is this different from the Leon F Versus?
The seating is the same family. The Leon R drives from the rear for stability outdoors; the Leon F drives from the front and turns in a tighter space indoors.

Will it fit through my doors?
It's 62 cm wide at its narrowest, depending on how it's set up. We're happy to check your home before you decide.

Do I need an assessment?
We recommend one, because the seating and powered functions are configured to each person.
