The Quickie Q50R Carbon is an ultra-light folding electric wheelchair made from carbon fibre to combine strength with portability, ideal for travel and everyday use. It folds down in seconds, lifts easily for car boots or public transport and offers rear-wheel drive and dual brushless motors for smooth, stable manoeuvring both indoors and out.

Key benefits

Ultra-light and portable – carbon fibre frame keeps the chair very light, making lifting and storing much easier.
Folds in seconds – compacts quickly so it fits into car boots, cupboards or tight storage spaces.
Reliable performance – dual brushless motors and rear-wheel drive give smooth power and good control in tight spaces.
Travel friendly – uses an airline-friendly lithium battery and packs small for trains, planes and cars.
Comfort for daily use – padded seat and supportive backrest help you stay comfortable on longer journeys.

Who is this for?

Active users who need a very light, folding powerchair for regular travel and easy transport.
People who require a compact electric wheelchair that still performs well outdoors and indoors.
Carers and family members who need a chair that’s simple to fold, lift and store.

Detailed product information

Built around an ultra-light carbon fibre frame, the Q50R Carbon focuses on portability without sacrificing durability. It weighs 14.5 kgs excluding batteries, so you can lift it into car boots or place it in tight storage spaces with less effort, and it folds down to a compact size in just seconds to help with travel and everyday convenience.

Performance comes from two high-performance brushless motors and a rear-wheel drive layout that gives a smooth, stable ride across a variety of surfaces. The drive setup helps with manoeuvring in tight indoor spaces while maintaining control outdoors, and the chair reaches a top speed of 3.75 mph (6 km/h).

Battery options suit different needs: the Standard model uses one lithium-ion battery while the Plus model takes two batteries for extended distance, and batteries are changed over manually on the Plus version. Expect a standard range of 7.45 miles (12 km) and a Plus range of 14.9 miles (24 km) on a full charge, with each battery weighing 1.4 kgs.

Comfort and user control are straightforward with a well-padded seat and supportive backrest, plus an ergonomic joystick that can be set up for either left- or right-handed use. Solid puncture-proof tyres reduce maintenance and the construction is rust-resistant for greater longevity in everyday conditions.

A modern finish is available with choice of coloured wheel rims and a sleek, travel-friendly profile that suits users who want a dependable, tidy mobility solution. The Q50R Carbon’s compact folded dimensions and light weight make it particularly useful for those who travel frequently or need easy storage at home.
