There are many different options available through the Motability Scheme to suit a wide range of mobility needs. Some examples include:

Steering aids help make turning the wheel easier, allowing you to steer using one hand if needed. Options include: Standard fixed steering aids (permanently attached) Quick-release steering aids (ideal if the car is shared with other drivers) Specialist steering aids for more complex mobility requirements
Left or right foot accelerators
These allow you to accelerate using your preferred foot, making driving more comfortable if you have limited mobility on one side.

Boot hoists can lift wheelchairs or scooters into the vehicle with minimal effort. 4-way hoists are designed for heavier wheelchairs or scooters 2-way hoists are suitable for lighter equipment Rooftop stowage systems can store a wheelchair on the roof of the vehicle
Transfer plates
Transfer plates create a supportive bridge between a wheelchair and the car seat, making it easier to move into the vehicle. They can be manual or electronic and fold away once you’re seated.
