Two Motors, One Simple Fold, Total Travel Freedom
The FreeRider Luggie Travel Wheelchair gives you a highly transportable power chair without sacrificing performance. Its reinforced frame supports up to 320 lbs and folds flat in two simple steps down to just 24 inches in length β small enough to slide into a car trunk, airline cabin, cruise cabin, or RV compartment.
A dual 70W motor setup, directed by a responsive 360Β° joystick, delivers a tight 30-inch turning radius β making it easy to weave through busy airport terminals, compact kitchens, and narrow store aisles with confidence. A quick-release lithium battery keeps things travel-friendly, and the whole chair is designed for effortless folding without disconnecting any wires or removing loose parts.
Key Features
- Two-Step Compact Fold: The frame lowers and locks into a single 24" package for fast, tool-free vehicle storage.
- Dual 70W Motors: Independent drive transaxles provide stable, predictable power over flat pathways and sidewalks.
- 360Β° Joystick Control: Crisp, fluid steering and effortless throttle management.
- 30" Turning Radius: Center-pivot tracking maneuvers easily inside confined indoor spaces and standard elevators.
- Premium 17" Cushioned Seat: A contoured travel seat with height-adjustable padded armrests for easy side entries.
- Maintenance-Free Solid Tires: 6" front and 8" rear puncture-proof, non-scuffing polyurethane wheels.
- Regenerative Braking: Smooth, automatic deceleration for reliable stops on inclines up to 6 degrees.
Specialist Insight: Standard electric wheelchairs are often heavy and bulky enough to require a motorized vehicle hoist. The Luggie avoids that constraint by keeping its stripped lifting weight to just 70 lbs and folding flat to 24 inches without removing any loose pieces or disconnecting wires, so it hoists into a car trunk or SUV hatch about as easily as manual travel gear. If you'll be flying commercially, the 10.5Ah battery keeps you within FAA/TSA carry-on limits β the higher-capacity 16.5Ah battery trades that flight compliance for extended ground range, so choose based on how you'll actually be traveling.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How easy is the two-step folding sequence?
A: It's fast and requires no tools or component teardown. Unlock the chassis latch beneath the seat to fold the backrest flat, then collapse the side linkages inward β the chair compresses into a flat 24-inch travel package in under a minute.
Q: Can the battery be charged away from the chair?
A: Yes. The quick-release battery compartment lets you leave the folded frame stored in your trunk or a closet, and carry just the lightweight battery pack inside to charge at any standard wall outlet.
Q: How does the dual-motor system handle outdoor sidewalks?
A: Unlike single-motor units that can struggle on minor surface transitions, the dual transaxle system distributes power independently to each rear wheel for consistent torque and smooth tracking over paved paths and ramps.
