Elite Scooters Announces the Launch of the Elite Electric Wheelchair

Sheridan, WY – Elite Scooters is excited to announce the launch of the new Elite Electric Wheelchair, the company’s most advanced and high-performance wheelchair to date. The Elite Electric Wheelchair is equipped with two powerful motors and a strong lithium-ion battery, providing a max range of 12 miles and a top speed of 3.75 miles per hour. This is more than six times the distance the average American walks in a day and approximately two times the average walking pace.

“We are thrilled to introduce the Elite Electric Wheelchair to the market,” said George Peters, head of Customer Support at Elite Scooters. “Our team has worked tirelessly to develop a product that not only enhances mobility and independence, but also delivers a superior performance experience. We believe the Elite Electric Wheelchair sets a new standard in the industry and we are confident it will make a significant difference in the lives of our customers.”

In addition to its impressive range and speed, the Elite Electric Wheelchair is also designed with comfort and convenience in mind. It features a padded seat and backrest, adjustable armrests and footrest, and convenient storage. The chair is also lightweight and easy to transport, making it perfect for on-the-go use.

Buy why did Elite Scooters decide to introduce this new product to the market? According to Peters, it was all about meeting the needs of the company’s customers.

“We’re always committed to listening to our customers and understanding their needs,” said Peters. “Through feedback and research, we learned that there was overwhelming demand for a lightweight, powerful, and comfortable electric wheelchair. Customers wanted a chair that would allow them to travel longer distances and keep up with their active lifestyles.”

Considering Elite Scooters’ customer demographic, the company is on the right track. According to Pew Research, there are 10,000 Baby Boomers retiring every day, and the modern-day retirement lifestyle looks very different than it did 20 years ago. These days, retirees are traveling more, open to more adventurous destinations, and seeking greater independence.

“Research shows that as more people retire, they’re willing to travel to higher-quality destinations and for longer periods, both abroad and domestically,” said Patty David, AARP’s Director of Consumer Insights and Personal Fulfillment. Especially following the lockdowns of the COVID-19 pandemic, Baby Boomers are travelling now more than ever to visit friends and family that they were previously not able to see in person. 

For those customers looking to travel, Elite Scooters has them covered. The Elite Electric Wheelchair is TSA compliant and airline-approved. With the ability to bring an electric wheelchair on a plane, destination travel is opened up to an entirely new segment of mobility-restricted consumers.

“The Elite Electric Wheelchair is not just a piece of equipment, it is a tool for empowerment and independence. We want to break down boundaries for our customers wherever they choose to go,” said Peters.

This isn’t the first time that Elite Scooters has introduced innovative products to the mobility marketplace. Their product line also includes the Elite Ultra Lightweight 3-Wheeled Scooter, which features a staggering 25 miles of range, and the Elite Classic Mobility Scooter, which is a modern twist on the classic electric scooter. Additionally, Elite Scooters offers one non-motorized product, the Elite Rollator, for post-surgery recovery mobility.

“At Elite Scooters, our top priority is the satisfaction and well-being of our customers,” said Peters. “We are committed to providing innovative, high-quality products that empower people with mobility limitations to live their best lives. The Elite Electric Wheelchair is a testament to that commitment and we can’t wait for our customers to experience it for themselves.”

Elite Scooters is currently offering early bird discounts to customers purchasing the Elite Electric Wheelchair, as well as offering loyalty programs, financing, and other incentives.
