Brands of elderly mobility vehicles include INNUOVO, enjoycare, ZB, Situma, LUYUAN, ENGWE, Inokim, XTESI, gangnam, etc. The following is a detailed introduction about elderly mobility vehicles: Overview: Elderly mobility vehicles are also known as elderly electric vehicles. They come in two types: 3-wheeled and 4-wheeled. When designing these vehicles, manufacturers do not simply apply the configuration of the original two-wheeled electric bicycles to elderly mobility vehicles; instead, they configure dedicated motors and controllers specifically for mobility vehicles. Others: In terms of functionality, elderly mobility vehicles are different from two-wheeled electric bicycles, placing more emphasis on the convenience and safety of elderly users. The speed is usually 10 kilometers per hour.

Recently, I took my elderly family members to look at cars and found that senior mobility vehicles are divided into several tiers. The mainstream options include electric sedans from major manufacturers like LeDing and Yujie, which come with heating/cooling air conditioning and reverse cameras, can be registered with green license plates and insured, making them suitable for frequently picking up grandchildren. Second-tier brands such as BIDEWEN and Fulu mainly produce low-speed quadricycles, which are lightweight and priced around 20,000-30,000 RMB, ideal for grocery shopping around the neighborhood. Avoid no-name brands—I’ve seen a neighbor’s no-brand vehicle develop a swollen battery after just six months. Key considerations: Lead-acid batteries are cheaper but bulky, while lithium batteries are lighter but twice as expensive; avoid models with a range below 80 km; and ensure they come with anti-rollback functionality!

I highly recommend focusing on these five types: First, health-monitoring models, such as the Jiayuan Micro Car with seats that detect blood pressure and heart rate; second, fully enclosed models—Lichi's steel-frame body is much safer than plastic shells; third, lightweight foldable options, like the Baoya Elf, which can fit into elevators for charging; fourth, models with driving assistance—Hongri's newly released automatic braking version, though pricey, is very practical; fifth, community-shared vehicles, such as the Weimi, which partners with property management for scan-and-rent services, eliminating charging concerns. Always choose a model with hydraulic power steering to make turning effortless for the elderly.

When making a purchase, it's essential to distinguish between commuting needs. For those with robust physiques, options like the Jinpeng Kaku three-wheeler offer stable turning; for individuals with mobility challenges, consider the Shifeng GD04C with its wheelchair ramp; if you're taking your spouse out, the BAIC Kitten dual-seat version provides the most spacious option; for child pickups, the Baoluda's rear ISOFIX interface is a must. Key considerations include certifications: check if the compliance certificate includes 3C certification, and ensure the battery pack has an IP67 waterproof rating. Manufacturers from Hebei and Shandong generally offer better overall quality, as no-name brand batteries suffer severe performance drops in winter—there have been incidents here where elderly individuals had to push their vehicles midway.
