Honda Wheelchair Vans & Handicap Vans

A Valuable Wheelchair Van

Honda Odyssey Wheelchair VanHonda is one of the world’s leading, respected, dependable producers of automobiles. Honda has won numerous awards including “Best Resale Value Award” in the brand category for 2009. Since handicap van customers need a vehicle they can depend on for a long time, Honda is a brand they can have confidence in for their accessible vehicle needs.

The Honda Odyssey wheelchair van is a popular minivan

For this reason, interest in Honda wheelchair vans started immediately as it was released. However, as with any major mobility conversion, there were many design and manufacturing obstacles in making this wheelchair van product.

Fortunately, Vantage Mobility International (VMI) and Viewpoint Mobility decided that the demand was strong enough for the Honda Odyssey as a wheelchair accessible conversion van. As a result they both invested their time and resources to get this product to market. Working closely with Honda, VMI and Viewpoint thoroughly evaluated the various wheelchair conversion van options and succeeded in getting a Honda wheelchair van into the marketplace.

Honda Wheelchair Van Options

The interior of the Honda Odyssey is spacious and comfortableIn 2006, VMI introduced the “Best-in-Class” Honda Odyssey with a wheelchair accessible conversion, and after working out some initial challenges, the product was a huge hit with wheelchair van consumers all across the country.

Today, the VMI Honda Odyssey Northstar and Honda Odyssey Summit conversions are among the most popular Honda handicap vans that VMI produces. In addition, the Honda Odyssey Northstar and Honda Odyssey Summit are also among the most popular of all wheelchair accessible minivans on the market.

Viewpoint Mobility stayed focused on their commitment to the rear entry wheelchair van market and created a design for a rear-entry Honda Odyssey mobility conversion van. Once again, Viewpoint was able to create a safe, reliable and affordable wheelchair van for those Honda Odyssey fans who also value the features and lower price of rear entry wheelchair minivans.

Thanks to VMI and Viewpoint, along with the support of Honda USA, wheelchair van consumers now have several Honda Odyssey mobility conversion vans to choose from.
