New vehicle seats in China that transform into wheelchairs for people with reduced mobility

"There should be at least one for every asylum." That was the reaction of a social media user upon seeing the video of new energy vehicles from China, which have evolved to the point of converting the cabin seats into electric wheelchairs, which can be used by people with mobility problems. The video also surprises Gustavo Soberado, a Facebook user, who comments: "It looks super AI" and states that he gives credit "only because the embassy" of China in Mexico is publishing it. They are called inclusive cars because they allow people with reduced mobility, due to some illness or disability, as well as senior citizens, to travel comfortably in their wheelchairs. The car seats, upon reaching the destination, detach and descend from the vehicle, becoming in seconds the wheelchairs that the user needs. In some media, the modality is described as retractable seats designed for people with disabilities and senior citizens.

Microcar for wheelchairs

Before, on social media, videos of El Chairiot Solo were released, described as an accessible "microcar" for wheelchairs manufactured by Chairiot Mobility Inc. They claimed it was one of the few cars for wheelchair users specifically designed for that purpose, and not a conversion. Now, "China does it again," as commented on social media when presenting "an innovative car seat that transforms into a fully functional wheelchair for easy and independent mobility," they highlight on the Moments that matter account on the X network.
