For years Freedom Motors has been pushing the edge of what is possible in a wheelchair accessible vehicle. They have been pioneering innovating conversions on unique vehicles for over a decade, being the first company to ever release a wheelchair accessible SUV. Now they have introduced an all new vehicle to the mobility lineup, the Chevrolet Traverse.
This conversion, however, is far from the only SUV in the market today. Both VMI and BraunAbility have offered their own answer to the need of a non-minivan mobility vehicle. With VMI unveiling their Honda pilot early 2018, and BraunAbility leading this modernized charged with their flagship Ford Explorer MXV conversion back in 2015.
Although, it has been years since a manufacturer has utilized a Chevrolet in the production of a personal use mobility vehicle, and the new Chevy Traverse looks to be a great fit. Boasting more headroom and maneuverability than any comparable mobility SUV in the industry, it will prove to be a good solution to those who could not fit in previous models offered by other manufacturers. The conversion itself comes standard with both a power ramp and removeable driver’s seat, making it a great fit for someone looking to drive themselves independently.
The team at BLVD is excited to see how this conversion will help the public and advance the drive for manufacturers to continue pushing for more creative and innovative mobility solutions. For more information about this conversion, or to see one in person, contact your local Freedom Motors dealer today.
My professional background stems from non-profit marketing and fundraising for a large children’s cancer hospital. Every day I was able to make connections and relationships for kids and their families going through devastating times. From securing small donations to large corporate support, it was all about providing hope that one day doctors and researchers would find a cure. It was truly an honor to be a part of something so important.
Just this past year, I came to work alongside my family for BLVD.com, a website dedicated to offering the latest information and resources for people needing mobility products. This was a dream come true for me as I have always wanted to combine more time with my family while still helping others. Our family has been in the mobility industry for over 35 years with the goal of enhancing the quality of life for people with mobility issues. This is the spirit behind BLVD and what I am most excited about sharing in my blog.
I love meeting new people and have found that volunteering is the best way to learn more about others and myself. Coffee keeps me going as do walks my pup "Kirby" and most of all being with family and friends. I invite you to check out my blog to learn more about how "together we can move through life better!"
