Hybrid-wheel drive base

For the first time, QUICKIE brings you a unique blend of rear-wheel drive and mid-wheel drive technology, delivering impressive outdoor performance with indoor maneuverability and exceptional comfort. All Q500 H bases come with Occupied Transit tie-down brackets as standard, no charge.

The Q500 H's fixed front casters prevent the chair from tipping forward, while the dynamic suspension system keeps both drive wheels and casters in contact with the ground. Intelligent, active anti-tips ensure that all six wheels remain in contact with the ground for enhanced traction and stability.

Unlike conventional rear wheel drive bases, the Q500 H's drive wheel position ensures a smaller turning radius for increased indoor maneuverability without compromising stability and outdoor performance.

The innovative, dynamic suspension system actively absorbs impacts over thresholds and uneven terrain to enhance ride comfort & seat stability, reduce fatigue, and ultimately extend the time a user can sit in the chair.

The large front casters not only provide a more stable ride, but they allow greater ability to climb obstacles. Additionally, these large casters absorb more impact, giving you both performance and a smoother ride.

QUICKIE Motor Technology

Our robust motor technology can't be easily duplicated anywhere else. That's because we've spent years working closely with our manufacturer to develop a longer-lasting, highly efficient motor with improved performance, drivability, and range.

Engineered for optimal driving performance

Quickie Motor Technology

We know that more time is spent maneuvering around a home and workplace versus traveling long distances. That's why we've designed our motors to give you the control you need in small spaces without sacrificing the power you want to tackle obstacles. Plus, you'll be able to drive 10% further on the same battery capacity. Similar to a car driving on the highway versus in the city, don't sacrifice performance in places where it's needed the most.

Reduced thermal rollback

Cooling fins

The larger fins found on our motors aren't just a stylish design feature. Larger cooling fins enable heat to escape more effectively, reducing your risk of thermal rollback so you can drive 25% further and faster when combined with the additional boost, even when on an incline or faced with uneven surfaces.

Equipped with 10 seconds of power boost

Power Boost

Overcoming obstacles like steeper inclines and even door jambs gets easier with our controller and motor combination. These two systems work together to provide you with an additional 10 seconds of boost for that extra power whenever you need it.

Designed to last

Metal gears

Unlike some of our competitors, QUICKIE motors feature metal gears instead of plastic. Polished for low noise and high efficiency, our all-metal gears exceed expectations in tough conditions. We go the extra step in polishing those gears because we believe that a little extra effort goes a long way in creating a better ride.

QUICKIE Motor Technology continually exceeds rigorous testing standards. With a proven 99% success rate, your ride will be unlike any other. QUICKIE 4-pole motors generate 18% more power than previous generations.
