Invacare (NYSE:IVC) announced that it is launching the Invacare Aviva FX power wheelchair with front-wheel-drive power mobility.
The Aviva FX power wheelchair includes Linx technology that offers pre-set programming parameters, wireless programming and integration with ASL specialty controls. It features an open-stack design to allow easy removal of the tires, wheels, hubs, gearboxes and motors. All electronics sit at the rear of the unit to allow easy access to wiring and connections.
Elyria, Ohio-based Invacare’s patent-pending 4Sure suspension is designed with anti-tippers, springs and shock absorbers working together to keep all four wheels on the ground, even over curbs and other obstacles, according to a news release. Invacare’s G-Trac technology and Linx technology’s adaptive load compensation also combine to keep control on slopes and uneven surfaces.
Invacare chairman, president & CEO Matt Monaghan said in the release that the launch of the Aviva FX power wheelchair will represent merely the tip of the company’s full pipeline of innovations coming to market in 2020.
“We are proud to introduce the next generation of Invacare power mobility products with the Aviva FX power wheelchair,” added Invacare VP of sales & marketing for North America Joost Beltman. “The Aviva brand has a unique identity that conveys a promise of best-in-class design, technology and performance. The Aviva FX power wheelchair will offer current front-wheel-drive users a high-performance chair that is an innovative leap forward in front-wheel-drive power mobility.”
