A slim, steady electric wheelchair for life at home and around town

When doorways feel narrow, the kitchen feels cramped and getting to the shops takes all your energy, the right electric wheelchair (also known as a powerchair) can give you your independence back. The Invacare AVIVA RX20 is built on a slim 56 cm base, so it slips through doors and round furniture, yet it's sturdy and comfortable enough for pavements and park paths.

Its Modulite seat can be set up around your body, with tilt and recline available, so you stay comfortable and well supported through a long day — not just for a quick trip out.

✅ Key Features & Benefits

• Narrow 560 mm base
  Fits through standard internal doors and tight hallways, so you can move freely around your own home without bumping frames or needing furniture moved.

• Up to 47 km (29 miles) of range
  With the larger 73.5 Ah batteries you can do a full day of errands, visits and a walk in the park without worrying about getting home.

• Modulite seating that adjusts to you
  Seat width (330–480 mm), depth and height can be set to fit your body, which helps your posture and comfort if you sit for most of the day.

• Tilt and recline options
  Tilting and leaning back shifts your weight off your bottom and lower back — helpful for pressure relief, tiredness or simply resting during the day.

• Climbs obstacles up to 60 mm
  Door thresholds and small kerbs become much less of a worry.

• Rear-wheel drive with twin 340 W motors
  Steady, predictable driving outdoors and good grip on slopes and uneven paths.

• Crash tested
  Can be used as a seat in a suitably adapted vehicle, so travelling by accessible taxi or minibus is simpler.

• Choice of shroud colours
  Pick a colour that feels like yours, from classic black and silver to brighter shades.

Colours available

Black, Silver, Bengal Red, Mercury Blue and Midnight Purple, plus premium Racing Green, Deep Ocean Blue Satin, Frosty Blue and Gold.

Who it suits best

• You need a powerchair that works well indoors and outside
• Homes with narrower doorways and tighter spaces
• You sit for long periods and want seating set up for you
• Users up to 136 kg (21 stone)

Worth knowing before you buy

The RX20 has a top speed of 4 mph (6 km/h), so it's designed for pavements and indoors rather than quicker road trips. It does not fold — depending on the setup it weighs from 105 kg — so if you want to put your chair in a car boot, a folding electric wheelchair is a better fit. For rough ground and grass, a larger all-terrain chair will cope better.
