About this product

The Freedom DE08L is a versatile and robust folding electric wheelchair, expertly designed for active users seeking both indoor manoeuvrability and outdoor capability. Its innovative detachable frame allows the chair to separate into two lighter sections, with the heaviest part weighing just 15.5 kg, making it incredibly easy to lift and transport. This feature, combined with its quick and simple manual folding mechanism, ensures it fits into most car boots and takes up minimal space at home or when travelling.

Engineered to support users up to 160 kg (27 stone), the DE08L maintains exceptional sturdiness, effortlessly handling various terrains such as gravel, grass, and cobblestones. It is controlled via a user-friendly joystick, offering precise handling for both the user and an attendant.

Equipped with powerful 300W brushless motors and electromagnetic braking, the DE08L delivers a smooth and reliable ride. The standard configuration includes one battery, providing a range of up to 9 miles, with the option to extend this to an impressive 27 miles by adding two additional batteries. This makes it an ideal companion for days out, cruises, and general everyday use, with an airline battery test certificate available for hassle-free air travel.
