Description

The SmartDrive is a revolutionary new power assist device that is lightweight and easy to install to transform your chair into an electric wheelchair. This wheelchair accessory can fit most chairs and simply attaches to a hitch on the back to help power you up steep hills. It’s intuitive design means you just push to go and tap to brake. A cruise control can be set to maintain your speed and the anti-rollback feature allows you to stop on a hill and easily get going ahead.

Powerful

The SmartDrive is surprisingly powerful. You can cruise up the steepest ramps and sidewalks. Even a thick padded hotel carpet is no problem. It even has an anti-rollback feature that allows you to stop on a hill and then easily get going again.

Customisable

Now with PushTracker the SmartDrive power assist can be individualized, allowing tweaks to the tap sensitivity, top speed and more. Also equipped with different selectable modes, you can easily pick the one that is best for your desired activity level and needs. But no matter what mode you chose, using the SmartDrive is intuitive and easy.

Control Modes

MX1: Push to go, coast and then brake on the handrims to stop. The original SmartDrive operation that is great for indoor use.

MX2: Push to go, coast and then tap brake to stop. The Normal operation the SmartDrive has come to be known for to easily take on any indoor or outdoor environment.

NEW MX2+: Double-tap to start ramping up the speed, tap to coast at your current speed and then double-tap brake to stop. A game-changing operation giving weaker pushers the power to activate the motor at the tap of the wrist. See the Quickstart Guide (click here) for more details.

SpeedControl Dial now available

The new SpeedControl Dial brings next-level control and intuitiveness to SmartDrive. Users are now able to start, stop, and adjust their speeds by simply rotating the dial forwards or backwards. This new standard controller is provided as a free option when purchasing a SmartDrive. It is wired and is powered directly by the SmartDrive unit, so there is no need to charge two devices, and setup takes less than 5 minutes.

Easy Install

The SmartDrive is lightweight and easy to install. The system weighs only 12.5 lbs (5.7 kg) and simply attaches on the back of the chair. It can be fit on essentially any make and type of wheelchair, including folding, tilt-in space, one-arm drive and standing.

Be free

The SmartDrive gives you freedom to do more. It moves with you and it’s so lightweight, you don’t even know it’s there. You can spin in place, be in a wheelie, or hop off curbs. It is compatible with your active lifestyle.

Accessories (sold separately)

Thumb Throttle Buttons: These are a great accessory to the SmartDrive. They can be mounted in unique positions and used in a variety of ways. Mounting by the rear wheels gives you added control and operation. Putting on the chair’s push handles an attendant can then activate the SmartDrive at a comfortable walking speed, for assistance up ramps, grades and over long distances. Or a combination of the two!
