Recently, the Director of DCIL flew down to Minneapolis to purchase his new accessible van. He drove back from the cities in his 2013 Chrysler Town and Country Limited. He was able to experience many of the up to date technology new vans can offer. Some of these features include:
Features Include:
Blind Spot and Cross Path Detection
Rear Park Assist System
Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
Rain Sensitive Windshield Wipers
Rear Back-Up Camera
Remote Start System
Keyless Entry
Steering Wheel Audio Controls
Power Liftgate
Power Sliding Doors
Heated Mirrors
The features listed here are only a few the van has to offer. Many of these features are available straight from the dealership. With the advancement of technology, automatic headlights and windshield wipers are beginning to be standard features on new vehicles. Features like the ones listed above help the driver to give their full attention to the road.
This van’s added features are what make it accessible.
Ramp
This ramp retracts into the floor of the van so that there is still plenty of room to maneuver a wheelchair.
Hand Controls
The gas and the break functions of this car can be handled using hand controls. The steering wheel also has a handle attached to make it easy to drive with one hand.
Electric Rotating Seat
The driver seat doesn’t just move back and forth. It also rotates to allow people to transfer to the seat much easier.
Magnetic Remote Seat Control
These hand controls are attached to a remote. It has easy to press buttons. It is also magnetic and attaches to the side of the seat as shown above.
This van was purchased at Rollx Vans. If you’d like to learn more about van accommodations, you can call them at 952-890-7851.
