Compact Folded Dimensions
- Folded Length: 37cm

- Folded Height: 76.7cm
Its compact folded size makes it suitable for storage in many car boots and other restricted spaces, subject to available dimensions.
The battery can be removed when required to reduce the lifting weight further.
Go Further – Up to 24km Range
Enjoy greater freedom with the Q50 R Plus Carbon's lightweight lithium-ion battery system.
The powerchair can accommodate two 10Ah lithium batteries, providing an extended maximum travel range when both batteries are fitted.
- Single 10Ah Battery: Up to 12km (approximately 7.5 miles)
- Dual 10Ah Batteries: Up to 24km (approximately 15 miles)
This additional range can be particularly useful for longer days out, holidays and extended shopping trips.
Please note: The quoted 24km range requires two batteries. Please check the selected product package to confirm whether the additional battery is included or available separately.
Designed with Air Travel in Mind
The QUICKIE Q50 R Plus Carbon is designed to make travelling easier, with a compact folding frame and removable lithium-ion battery system.
The manufacturer describes the 10Ah lithium battery as suitable for air travel, subject to the applicable airline and aviation safety requirements.
For additional convenience, an optional Q50 R Carbon Battery Travel Bag is available to help protect and organise the battery during transportation.
Important: Always obtain confirmation from your airline before travelling. Battery acceptance, carriage arrangements and permitted battery quantities vary between airlines. IATA does not provide a universal approval for individual powerchair batteries.
