ntroducing the perfect match for your active lifestyle – the Invacare®Excel™front-wheel drive. It
combines the stability and obstacle handling characteristics of a traditional rear-wheel drive, with the
maneuverability of a mid-wheel drive – which means that the Excel FWD performs, both indoors
and outdoors. And because it’s a chair for people on the go, the Excel FWD is transportable, complete
with an exciting new flip-up battery tray that remains on the chair. Plus, a wide range of captain seats
are available, which are not only beautiful, but comfortable and functional as well. Beautifully styled
shrouds complete the package, creating a functional, attractive system.
Highlights
• Exciting shroud colors
• To increase convenience and
independence for the user, the
charger port is located in a position
easily reached by both left- and righthanded people
• Extremely maneuverable with a front
turning radius as low as 13.5" and a
full turning radius as low as 25"*
• No front stabilizers to interfere with
surfaces or mark floor coverings
• Handles obstacles better than a mid-
wheel drive chair
• Easily transportable with flip-up
battery tray remaining on chair for
utmost convenience
• 250 lb. weight capacity
* Measured with a flip-up footboard.
Up to 3" of depth adjustability.
Up to 5" of height adjustability.
Disassembled for transport.
