However, in addition to the features of the wheelchair conversion itself, the Chrysler Pacifica chassis features some of the most cutting-edge safety and convenience features available in any minivan today!
On the, BraunAbility® Power In-floor, Chrysler Pacifica wheelchair accessible van, the vehicles sliding side doors and ramp are both full-power for not only convenience, but ease of use. By activating the open or close command on the vehicles factory key-fob or through the use of the numerous interior switches, the door will open or close and deploy or stow the on-board handicap ramp. Concerned about power loss? Don’t be! In the event of power failure, the wheelchair ramp features an integrated back-up system that can be used to operate the ramp manually.
The ramp on the, BraunAbility® Power In-floor, Chrysler Pacifica handicap wheelchair accessible van is 52 inches long and 32.25 inches wide, the widest ramp of all its competitors! Plus, it’s made of lightweight aluminum and has a load capacity of 1000 pounds. The ramps surface is powder-coated with a durable, non-skid material and features a slotted finish that ensures superior traction and works to reduce on-boarding debris.
In an effort to reduce the wheelchair ramp angle, making it easier for a wheelchair user, especially a manual wheelchair user to enter and exit the vehicle, every power, BraunAbility® handicap vehicle & wheelchair accessible van feature a fully-automatic, integrated suspension “kneeling” system. This system engages when the ramp deploy command is given. Once this command is given, the on-board computer activates an electric actuator mounted on the vehicles rear, passenger side suspension. This actuator engages to lower the wheelchair accessible vans ramp-side closer to the ground, thus reducing ramp angle to only 9.9 degrees. This option can also be turned off with a switch on the dash for situations when it isn’t necessary, such as loading and exiting to curbs or an elevated surface.
As part of the conversion process in a wheelchair accessible van or handicap vehicle, the floor of the van is lowered. In this case, the floor is lowered 14 inches from the firewall (just behind the engine) to the rear axle. This lowering of the floor does two things in the Pacifica: First, it creates a taller door entry height of 55 inches to allow for entry of taller wheelchair users. Second, it provides a wheelchair user with a direct line-of-sight while either driving or riding as a passenger.
Standard on the, BraunAbility® Power In-floor, Chrysler Pacifica wheelchair accessible van, the front seats can easily be removed to allow access for a wheelchair user to either drive from his or her wheelchair or ride as a passenger up-front. The seats are removed by unlocking them at the base and rolling them away for easy storage.
