Toyota Noah Welcab
In Japan, as a response to the rapidly ageing population, a novel class of vehicles known as ‘Welcab’, was introduced to facilitate the transportation of individuals using wheelchairs. Recognizing the challenges of lifting and carrying disabled individuals, even for those who are physically strong, ‘Welcab’ technology has advanced to provide effortless accessibility by seamlessly guiding the wheelchair occupant into the vehicle, with some models incorporating motorised winches.
The Toyota Noah Welcab 1.8 X Hybrid is a perfect everyday vehicle for families living with a person with disabilities (PWD), elderly and if you require extra space for gears or equipment.
It comes with:
1. Rear-Wheels Air Suspension System
An adjustable vehicle suspension system with a height reduction capability for smoother accessibility when rolling the wheelchair user in and out.
2. Aluminium Wheelchair Ramp
Easy pull out style aluminium ramp that holds up to 200kg
3. Electric Winch Assistance
A remote-controlled electric winch system facilitates the effortless transfer of the wheelchair user, making it simple to load and unload them.
4. Wheelchair Secure System
The wheelchair is securely anchored to the car’s floor both at the front and rear, and the occupant is appropriately fastened to ensure they remain stationary throughout the journey.
5. Wheelchair Seat Belt
The wheelchair user is securely fastened, just like any other passenger, using a 3-point safety belt system that covers both the shoulders and the waist.
These safety features compliments the purpose of the car, which is to make travelling convenient and comfortable for PWD passengers. For families travelling around with PWDs, they can easily make transportation accessible. With a height reduction system, a pull out ramp to assist the wheelchair up on to the vehicle and wheelchair secure system makes the experience a lot more comfortable and convenient.
However, it serves as a vehicle with extra space as well. They have Foldable Rear Seats so you’re able to fold them up to make more space for your luggages, bags, equipment and gears!
