The Sirus Ford Internal Transfer is the ideal solution if you want to drive from a standard driver seat.

Exceptional Interior Space

Our unique flat floor conversion is designed with a lowered floor throughout the front of the vehicle, so you have exceptional interior space and visibility. Our unique design includes sound insulation to ensure low noise levels so unlike many other wheelchair accessible vehicles, it provides an unrivalled car-like experience.

Side Entry

Our side entry design allows you to easily access the vehicle from the curb or a disabled parking space. The conversion is designed with a fully automated ramp and side sliding door which opens and closes simply by clicking your key fob.

UK’s Shortest Ramp

With lowering suspension, the ramp length is just 70cm, a huge advantage when parking.  The ramp is designed with an anti-slip coating, improving wheel traction in wet weather. The interior floor of the vehicle is also designed with an anti-slip material.

Lowering Suspension

The Sirus Ford Internal Transfer has lowering suspension which gives you the benefit of the UK’s shortest ramp – just 70cm long.  Lowering suspension gives the vehicle a pre-set ground clearance to always maintain constant ride height, regardless of the weight within the vehicle.  The 4-corner suspension lowers the vehicle when you enter and exit, and when you are ready to drive away the suspension will rise to ride height.

Want a break from driving?  Travel Upfront as a Passenger

If and when you want to take a break from driving, the conversion is designed with a removable front passenger seat. So your companion can take this out and leave it at home to enable you to sit comfortably in your wheelchair in the front of the vehicle. The removable seat is on transfer wheels, so no lifting is required.

Seating and Storage

Your rear passengers can enjoy the comfort of two original manufacturer rear seats, complemented by a fold-away footrest for added comfort. A spacious boot offers ample space for luggage and equipment and you can also fold down the rear seats should you need additional space. For ease of use when travelling independently we can fit an automated tailgate (optional).

Tow a Caravan or Trailer

As this is a side-entry conversion, you have the option to tow a caravan. (see optional extras).

Accurate Fuel Gauge

Unlike many other wheelchair accessible vehicles, this conversion has a standard size fuel tank and accurate fuel gauge, perfect for longer journeys.

Bespoke Adaptations

We offer a wide range of driving adaptations which are suited to your exact requirements.  Please ask us about further bespoke options and adaptations.
