MX-AIR : 17kg : Ultra Light Magnesium Alloy Folding Electric Wheelchair : 110kg Load
The MX-AIR is a powerful yet ultra lightweight electric wheelchair designed to make everyday life effortless. Weighing just 17 kg (2 st 9 lbs / 37 lbs) including the battery, it’s one of the lightest chairs in its class - easy to lift into a car boot, roll onto public transport, or check in for a flight.
What makes the MX-AIR stand out is its advanced magnesium alloy frame. Unlike carbon fibre, which can be costly to repair and less forgiving on uneven ground, magnesium alloy offers a unique blend of strength, comfort, and practicality. It absorbs vibration for a smoother ride, is easier to maintain, and delivers a premium lightweight feel without the premium price tag. Magnesium alloy has a natural ability to absorb vibration, which makes for a smoother ride on uneven terrain.
Ideal for shopping trips, coffee stops, dog walks, and getting around your home or garden, the MX-AIR is built for real life, not just showrooms. With its sleek design, reliable performance, and travel-ready portability, it gives you the confidence to move freely and independently.
