Details
The Roma Rhodes is a compact folding electric wheelchair made to make travel and daily life easier. Its strong magnesium frame and light overall weight help with lifting and storage. You can fold it into a compact package for a car boot and still enjoy a useful range for local trips, while a generous seat and 120 kg capacity support comfortable daily use.
Key benefits
- Lightweight and easy to lift – the chair itself weighs just 18 kg and the removable battery adds only 1.86 kg, easing transport.
- Compact when folded – folds down to small dimensions to fit most car boots and limited storage spaces.
- Good everyday range – up to 21 km (13 miles) on a full charge for errands and short outings.
- Comfortable seating – balanced seat proportions and a sensible seat height help with transfers and posture.
- Simple manoeuvring – a tight turning radius and separate front/rear wheel setup make indoor use easier.
Who is this for?
- People looking for a lightweight, portable powered chair for everyday errands and travel.
- Carers who need a chair that’s easy to lift and store in a vehicle.
- Users who want a compact option with a practical range for short trips and appointments.
Detailed product information
The Roma Rhodes is a Folding Electric Wheelchair that uses a sturdy magnesium frame that keeps the structure durable while remaining light. At 18 kg for the chair and 19.9 kg including the removable battery, it is easier to lift than many powered chairs. The battery itself weighs 1.86 kg, which helps when you need to remove it for carrying. When folded it becomes a compact unit measuring 360 x 605 x 790 mm, so it fits neatly into many car boots and tight storage spaces.
Seating is designed with day-to-day comfort in mind. The seat sits at a height of 530 mm with a rear seat width of 480 mm and a front width of 430 mm, while the seat depth is 410 mm and the backrest height is 430 mm. These proportions suit a wide range of users and support a maximum user weight of 120 kg for everyday use.
Performance comes from a 24V / 250W motor paired with a 24V / 12Ah battery, offering a practical range of up to 21 km (13 miles) on a full charge and a top speed of 6 km/h. The chair turns crisply with a turning radius under 1200 mm and stops reliably with a braking distance under 1000 mm. Wheel sizes—165 mm front and 270 mm rear—help balance indoor agility with basic outdoor handling.
