Simplicity when travelling
Storage and transport are made easy with the Motion Healthcare Connex. Dismantle the scooter into four lighter components to store the scooter in a car or an aeroplane for your travels. After dismantling, the scooter simply folds itself with a button. The heaviest component weighs 17.6kg; the Connex is an exceptionally lightweight model among other auto-fold scooters. Adapting to your lifestyle, it can be easily put into a car or taken into an aeroplane for a vacation with the optional 10.05 Ah battery. Although the standard 13.4 Ah battery is not travel-friendly, the larger battery will provide a greater range per charge.
Comfort during your journey
The height of the tiller and armrests can be adjusted to suit individuals of different sizes. Effortlessly transfer in and out of your seat by flipping the armrests upwards and simply pulling the lever beneath the armrest to rotate the seat around. To further add to your comfort, the four-wheeled scooter has pneumatic tyres to create a smoother ride as you go along pavements. The scooter is 103 cm long, providing a sizeable amount of legroom designed for your comfort.
Security with your mobility solution
The Connex comes with a five-year warranty on the scooter while the battery has a three-year warranty. The scooter is assured whether you are going abroad for a holiday or spending time at your local park. There are LED lights located at the bottom of the tiller to help you navigate safely in the evenings.
Our verdict
The Connex comprises features effectively revolving around your comfort and freedom to travel. As it is both relatively lightweight and has an auto-fold feature, it can easily be taken on the aeroplane or put into a car. Its rotatable seat and adjustable armrests create a comfortable experience for individuals of different sizes.
Although the auto-fold feature can be convenient, the technology involved in the mechanism makes the Connex a costly product. Alternatively, the TGA Minimo Plus 4 is another four-wheeled scooter with pneumatic tyres and a similar folding mechanism. The Minimo Plus 4 is for individuals looking for a smooth ride with an easy folding mechanism, but prefer a less costly option without an auto-fold mechanism. The TGA Minimo Autofold is a smaller option for individuals who want a smaller scooter with an auto-fold feature. Within TGA’s Minimo series, the TGA Minimo is the smallest among the scooters and does not require disassembly. The Minimo is the most ideal for individuals who prioritise compactness and an extremely user-friendly design.
The Connex stands out as a conveniently lightweight scooter with an auto-fold feature and a comfortable seat design. As the seats are rotatable, and the tiller and armrests can be adjusted, the scooter is a comfortable option for individuals looking to effortlessly move in and out of their seats.
