Vantage Mobility International (VMI) introduces its new Chrysler Pacifica wheelchair conversion, the Northstar Access 360. The conversion was unveiled recently to the Dealer Council Executive Committee in Chicago.

Among its features, per a media release from VMI, are: a ramp that stows under the floor, creating more room to maneuver the wheelchair; an obstruction-free doorway that allows able-bodied passengers to enter and exit the vehicle without deploying the ramp; and a full 30-inch-wide ramp with 800-pound capacity to accommodate large power chairs.

“The Chrysler Pacifica is big news in the auto industry, and VMI is proud to be the first in the mobility market to offer the power side-entry in-floor ramp and interchangeable front seats. Coupled with Pacifica’s 100 safety and security features, VMI’s features position the Pacifica wheelchair conversion as one of the top choices for consumers,” says Doug Eaton, VMI president and CEO, in the release.

“This conversion raises the bar for wheelchair-accessible minivans, providing owners with maximum freedom and convenience,” states Steve Crandell, VMI COO, in the release.
