    About the Rascal Motorized Wheelchair
    If you or a loved one is confined to a wheelchair, you'll be pleased to learn that the Rascal Company makes a motorized wheelchair to fit most personal situations. Designed for both indoor and outdoor use, Rascal has remained an innovator in the motorized wheelchair industry for many years.
  • Youth

    The most popular wheelchair Rascal produces for youths and young adults is the 326 model, which is designed to be more durable indoors and has a weight rating of 250 pounds. Fully padded and adjustable for smaller bodies, the 326 is lightweight and easy to maneuver.
  • Adults

    For older and larger persons, the Rascal 710 motorized wheelchair provides a heavy-duty motor and holds up to 550 pounds, making it the ideal choice for persons who spend more of their time outdoors or competing in sports. Looking more like a lawn mower than a wheelchair, it is also designed specifically for bariatric applications.


  • Other Models

    The Rascal Company offers eight total models of motorized wheelchairs, each designed with specific needs in mind. There's even a model that offers both front- and rear-wheel drive, as well as a full recline-and-tilt model designed to ease pressure points.
  • Accessories

    Transporting your motorized wheelchair is simplified by Rascal's line of accessories. Single-piece ramps for thresholds, heavy-duty ramps for trucks and vans and motorized lifts give mobility a whole new meaning. For the disabled driver, there are trunk lifts, auto racks and even a miniature crane for lifting your chair onto a truck bed.
  • Features

    All of Rascal's motorized wheelchairs are built with comfort in mind. Each has a high-back captain's seat, as well as tilting foot rests. Options abound, such as built-in oxygen holders, elevated leg rests and reclining seats. Some models offer electric seat lifts, programmable, swing-away joysticks and airline-approved batteries, as well as extra padding and a drive lock-out switch for safety.
