Classrooms are cluttered, hallways are busy and home corridors were never designed around a power chair. The Zippie Q300 M Mini is built for a child who has to get through all three. Its base is unusually narrow, so it goes where wider chairs have to stop and reverse.
The reason it turns so tightly is the true mid-wheel drive layout. The drive wheels sit central to the length of the chair, which keeps the turning circle small and puts weight over the drive wheels for traction. Front or rear wheel drive designs have to swing more of the chair around and carry less weight on the drive wheel, so they lose both.
Outdoors, patented all-wheel suspension keeps the chair stable and the ride settled over rough ground, and strong four-pole motors give it enough range for a full day out rather than a lap of the block. There is a wide set of powered function and styling options, so the chair can be built around how the child actually uses it and what they want it to look like.
