Take part in life with your family and friends thanks to the Navigator, a great mobility solution for today’s active world combining design, mobility and portability.

The new Dinkum Navigator Folding Electric Wheelchair, a lightweight power wheelchair, is the ultimate compact and portable mobility aid. The compact dimensions allow you to drive through narrow doorways or in confined spaces. Built on a robust aerospace aluminium frame, you can take on any challenging terrain, kerbs or potholes with ease. This ultimate compact wheelchair will offer you freedom everywhere.

The Navigator folds in seconds

Thanks to its unique design, the folding power wheelchair folds in seconds without any tools. It fits easily in the boot of your car or under a table. Great to take with you on a trip!

Passenger trailer – a world’s first!

It is now possible to attach the companion T-100 trailer - a purpose-built passenger seat with footrest - that you can connect to the wheelchair in seconds and that enables you to take your loved one along the beach front or in a park! Via a controller attachment the driver can passenger can assist in driving. This unique part is a world’s first and has been designed right here in Australia. 

Together the Navigator and the T-100 trailer will carry up to 180kg in weight. That means, a couple around 65-90kg each would be able to go for a nice drive together. Or maybe a carer can choose to take its patient along for a ride: how good is that! The T-100 trailer is easily removed from the wheelchair, enabling to be used as a wheelchair only on location.

Powerful Batteries of the Navigator

The Navigator is equipped with the next generation battery technology that is airplane compliant. It is MSDS certified and comes with a 2 high energy 250 W 10 Ah capacity. They will take you up to 40km on a single charge! The batteries can be easily taken out for charging.

Maintenance free motor and batteries

The Navigator provides a virtually zero maintenance over the life of its batteries without compromising on performance. As the motor and joystick controller are brushless, you won’t need any servicing.

Wheel suspension

To give you a comfortable driving experience the wheels are equipped with good-designed suspensions for superior comfort even on bumpy journeys. The Navigator is also equipped with an anti-pitch technology meaning you won’t tilt back on a slope and that the wheelchair can handle a hill with a gradient up to 10°.

Tyres

The tyres are made from Polyurethane (PU) and are fitted with 4 attributes for the adverse Aussie terrain:

• Load Capacity – PU tyres can easily support twice the weight than traditional tyres can support, making polyurethanes ideal for heavy weight-bearing. Maximum load capacity: 180 kg.
• Suspension – PU offers optimal suspension when driving over rough surfaces. It adds cushioning to give the driver a better and smoother ride.
• Wear and Abrasion Resistance – PU tyres will last around 4 times longer than rubber tyres. Rubber tyres tend to wear down from road friction over a long distance.
• All-Round – The benefits of PU tyres make them perfect to resist a multitude of surfaces your Navigator may come across.

These Polyurethane wheels will prove to be all-round, more durable, flexible and pliable tyres.
