An Electric Wheelchair, also called as power wheelchair is one of the innovative technologies that operate through batteries and electric motors. Electric wheelchair is used generally by people who are unable to walk due to physical disability or illness. It is also used by the people suffering from various kinds of cardiovascular or fatigue based conditions. Seating & positioning, cushions & brackets like features have contributed to the growth of the electric wheelchair market.

The electric wheelchair market has witnessed significant growth in the recent years. Power wheelchairs are among the technological inventions that are very beneficial for people with disabilities, as they do not require a caretaker and would be in a position to operate the chair by themselves. The technology is gaining lots of attention due to its easy to use features. Electric wheelchair is very convenient to use with multi-directional movements with simple controls, driving the demand for the product. These wheelchairs are available with different controls, such as Conventional Joysticks, Compact Joysticks, Finger Controls, Head Controls, Touchpad Controls, Sip and Puff Drive Controls, Wafer Boards, and Switch Drive Controls. The unique control options have attracted consumers, as they can select the product according to their comfort.

The factors driving the growth of the electric wheelchair market are increase in ageing population and growth in the number of incidence of spinal deformities. Additionally, increase in the number of road accidents and obese population have also contributed to the growth of the electric wheelchair market. However, high prices of the electric wheelchair and increasing awareness about healthcare in the developing regions would limit the growth of the electric wheelchair market.
