Shuttlebug Wheelchair-Operated Utility Vehicle

The rugged, all-terrain Shuttlebug Wheelchair-Operated Utility Vehicle is accessed and operated without the need to transfer in or out of a wheelchair. At the flip of a switch, the electro-hydraulic rear axle pivots to raise or lower the deck and ramp/tailgate for easy entry or exit. Equipped with a 16-horsepower twin-cylinder engine, automatic torque converter and forward/reverse transmission, operation requires no shifting, just putting in gear and depressing the accelerator. Maximum speed is 18 miles per hours, and carrying capacity is 500 pounds (in addition to the operator). The vehicle’s high-flotation tires allow it to go almost anywhere.

Cost: $9,250.00
