Thanks to Elbee, even those who as yet could not drive at all or required the assistance of another person, can travel independently.The vehicle weighs 400 kg, drives on electricity, there is a petrol version too . Elbee can be driven in towns and cities, as well as on highways, as its maximum speed is 80 km/h.

The Elbee is definitely not your run-of-the-mill vehicle. Opening right from the front, it allows the driver to ride straight into it with his/her wheelchair. The car’s front-end opening is an innovation that increases the self-reliance of wheelchair users who drive.
