HOT WHEELS 4 WHEELCHAIR USERS |
Wednesday, 14 June 2006 |

Style has rarely been a priority in industrial design for the disabled - until now that is. Designed in Hungary, the Kenguru is
a car specially designed for wheelchair users. The car's interior space
has no front seat, just a space built to house the drivers own
wheelchair so all he/she has to do is simply roll in through the extra
large car doors and into position. The wheelchair locks into place,
within easy reach of the car's controls which are centred around a
joystick. It's light years away from the current options for disabled
drivers, which involve having to hoist themselves into the driver's
seat of standard cars. by Billy T
