Sunrise Quickie Q50R Carbon
Part of the Quickie range, the Q50R Carbon from Sunrise Medical is a fan favourite among powerchair users. Why? Its ultra lightweight frame makes it the perfect travel companion. Weighing in at just 14.5kg (without batteries) and crafted from premium carbon fibre, this powerchair is the ideal choice for any journey.

Comfort is key, and the Q50R Carbon powerchair delivers with its foam cushions and backrest. Plus, a breathable cover helps regulate body heat and keeps you cool but dry on long trips.

Another popular choice from the Sunrise Quickie range is the Q300 M Mini powerchair, a fan favourite thanks to its sleek, slimline design that allows it to venture where other powerchairs can’t.
