The Australian-made IBIS Wheelchair to Car Access is designed to transform the lives of people with disabilities. By providing a seamless, easy-to-use mechanism for wheelchair users to transfer into vehicles, the IBIS system empowers individuals with greater mobility and autonomy.
The IBIS includes adjustable features to suit most car makes and models ensuring comfort and safety. Its impact goes beyond convenience—offering a renewed sense of freedom, independence, and dignity.
This life-changing technology fosters independence, allowing users to engage with the world more freely, whether it’s attending work or appointments, visiting friends and family, or a holiday road trip. For many, it symbolises not just enhanced accessibility but a profound improvement in their quality of life. The IBIS fully embraces the power of technology as it bridges gaps in accessibility and inclusivity.
The IBIS Wheelchair to Car Access offers a highly cost-effective solution compared to taxis and custom wheelchair vehicles. With taxis, users face ongoing expenses, while custom vehicles involve significant upfront costs for modifications. The IBIS system is a one-time investment that can be used across different vehicles, reducing the need for expensive alternatives.
In addition to affordability, it removes the need for taxi schedules and bookings, long wait times and unexpected cancellations. This combination of cost efficiency and empowerment makes the IBIS an invaluable asset for individuals seeking a long-term mobility solution.
Para Mobility customers continually express how the system has not only made their lives easier but also given them a renewed sense of confidence and freedom. By restoring mobility and autonomy, the IBIS has made a lasting, positive impact on countless lives.
“My wife had a stroke three and a half years ago. The stroke caused her to be paralysed down the right-hand side and she’s in 24/7 care. This IBIS Wheelchair to Car Access has enabled us to go to appointments, go out for lunches and just get out and actually do things. It has been life changing for us. To get the IBIS immediately, I was able to take my wife out, she was able to sit next to me whilst I drove, and we were able to go out for lunch and we do that frequently now. Our first drive was to Mooney Mooney which is 35 minutes from where my wife lives and we had fish and chips there before returning her home. It was the best fish and chips I’ve ever had.”
