Drive Medical CarbonTouch Folding Power Wheelchair — CFPC17FS
/
The Drive Medical CarbonTouch Power Wheelchair is one of the lightest folding power chairs available — a carbon fiber frame that weighs just 36.4 lbs without its battery and folds in seconds with a single touch. It's built for people who want independent powered mobility without a heavy chair or a vehicle lift: fold it, lift it into the trunk, and go. A removable 24V 12Ah lithium-ion battery powers it up to 10.5 miles at up to 3.7 mph, and a quick switch lets a companion push it manually when the battery is off. The joystick mounts on either armrest, the breathable mesh seat and back stay cool in Florida heat, and flip-back armrests make transfers easier. A built-in USB charger, phone holder, cup holder, safety belt, and anti-tippers come standard. Rated for 330 lbs with a 20" × 18" seat.

Why the CarbonTouch — Power Without the Weight
A power chair you can actually lift
Traditional power wheelchairs weigh 100 lbs or more and need a ramp, a van, or a vehicle lift to travel. That keeps a lot of people from using powered mobility outside the house. The CarbonTouch changes the math: its carbon fiber frame weighs 36.4 lbs without the battery, and the 4.4 lb battery lifts out separately. Many spouses and caregivers can fold it and lift it into a car trunk on their own. When the battery runs low or a companion wants to push, switch to manual mode and it rolls like a standard wheelchair.
