A small electric wheelchair that comes apart for the car boot

Plenty of people need help getting about but don't want a big, heavy chair that stays in the hall. The Pride Go Chair is a compact electric wheelchair, also known as a powerchair, that is easy to drive around the house and comes apart into five pieces so it travels in an ordinary car.

The heaviest piece is 16.5 kg, so getting it in and out of the boot is manageable for many families. Once it is back together you have a comfy swivel seat, a simple joystick and a tight turning circle that copes with furniture, shop aisles and narrow doorways. It comes in six bright colours, too.

✅ Key Features & Benefits

• Comes apart into five pieces
  Pride's feather-touch system separates the chair into lighter sections, so a partner or carer can load it into a car boot for days out, holidays and hospital visits.

• Very tight 65 cm turning circle
  Turns almost on the spot, which is ideal in small kitchens, bathrooms and busy shops where a larger chair would get stuck.

• Swivel seat
  The seat turns to the side so you can get in and out without twisting your back or knees, which helps if transfers are painful or tiring.

• Adjustable armrests
  Change the height and width to suit you, so your arms are supported and you have something firm to push on when you stand.

• Simple joystick control
  Light, easy movements drive and steer the chair, so you get around even if walking or pushing a manual wheelchair wears you out.

• Up to 21 km (13 miles) range
  Plenty for a morning around town or a garden centre trip, then home to charge overnight.

• Under-seat storage
  Room for a handbag, coat or shopping, so you keep your hands free for the controls.

• Six cheerful colours
  Coloured body panels let you choose a shade you like, so it feels like yours rather than hospital equipment.

Colours available

Red, Amber Orange, Rose Quartz, Sapphire Blue, Citrine Yellow and Pearl White.

Who it suits best

• You need a chair for around the home and short trips out
• You want to take your chair in the car
• Smaller homes with tight corners and doorways
• Users up to 21 stone (136 kg)

Worth knowing before you buy

The Go Chair is built to be small and portable, so it has a top speed of 3.7 mph, small solid wheels and modest ground clearance. It is happiest on smooth pavements and indoor floors rather than grass, gravel or steep hills. Taking it apart means lifting several pieces up to 16.5 kg, so if that is too much, a folding lithium electric wheelchair or a car hoist could be easier. If you need tilt, recline or a lot of postural support, look at a full-size electric wheelchair instead.
