Car-fit checker

Will it fit in my car?

Measure three things on your trunk. We'll check them against each model's folded size, as published by the manufacturer, and show how much each one weighs to lift in.

Measure A and B across the trunk opening, and C along the trunk floor to the back of the rear seats.

Folded sizes and lift weights

Folded sizes and weights are the manufacturers' published specs. Handles, wheels and the angle of the lift can change the real fit by an inch or two.

Mon to Fri, 9:30 to 5. Tell us your car's make, model and year and we'll check it with you.

The short answer

Often, yes, and three measurements of your car decide it, not its size class. Folded, the power wheelchairs and scooter we sell are between 29.5 and 35 inches long. The heaviest single lift, with the battery out, runs from 33 lb (AEROLUX 2C) to 60 lb (CITY 2 PLUS). Measure your trunk as shown below and compare it with the folded sizes.

How to measure your trunk

  1. A: opening width. Across the trunk opening at its narrowest point. On most sedans that is between the tail lights, not the widest part inside.
  2. B: opening height. From the trunk lip, where things slide in, straight up to the top edge of the opening.
  3. C: floor depth. From the lip to the back of the rear seats, along the floor.

Measure the same way on an SUV, hatchback or minivan. If you'll fold the rear seats down, measure the depth with them folded. Wheel wells and a raised floor can take away an inch or two, so measure at the tightest point.

Folded sizes

Model Folded (L × W × H) Heaviest lift
AEROLUX 2C 31.5 × 12 × 29.5 in 33 lb (36 with battery)
DASH 2 Lite 30 × 24 × 13.5 in 39 lb (43 with battery)
GT 29.5 × 23.6 × 13.8 in 49 lb (53 with battery)
CITY 2 PLUS 32 × 23 × 13 in 60 lb (65 with battery); comes apart in 3 pieces
HELIX scooter 35 × 24 × 13.7 in 55 lb (59 with battery)
byACRE Carbon Ultralight 29.9 × 9.8 × 31.5 in 10.6 lb

Lifting it in

Size is half the question. The other half is who does the lifting, and how often. On every Travel Buggy chair above, the battery comes out, so the heaviest lift is the frame on its own. The CITY 2 PLUS also separates into three pieces, so it can go in as more than one lift. If lifting is the worry, the AEROLUX 2C is the lightest of the five at 33 lb.

Not sure, or your model isn't in the table? Call 289-401-7778 with your car's make, model and year, Monday to Friday 9:30 to 5. For power chairs and scooters we also offer a free in-home demo across the GTA.

Folded sizes and weights are the manufacturers' published specs: Travel Buggy's model comparison and DASH Ultra-Lite manual, and byACRE's product specifications, checked September 2026. Handles, wheels and the angle of the lift can change the real fit by an inch or two.

Questions about the car

Will a folding power wheelchair fit in a sedan trunk?

Often, yes. Lying flat, the DASH 2 Lite, GT, CITY 2 PLUS and HELIX are between 13 and 13.8 inches high, so a sedan's opening height is rarely what stops them. The opening width at its narrowest point and the floor depth usually decide it. The AEROLUX 2C folds differently: 12 inches thick, but 29.5 by 31.5 inches the other two ways. The checker above tries every way each model can go in.

How heavy is it to lift into the car?

Without the battery, per the manufacturer: AEROLUX 2C 33 lb, DASH 2 Lite 39 lb, GT 49 lb, HELIX 55 lb, CITY 2 PLUS 60 lb. The CITY 2 PLUS also separates into three pieces. The byACRE Carbon Ultralight rollator is 10.6 lb.

Will it fit in an SUV, hatchback or minivan?

Usually more easily, because the opening is taller. Measure the same three things. If you'll fold the rear seats down, measure the floor depth with them folded.

What if the checker says it's tight?

Tight means less than 2 inches to spare on the tightest side, so it may fit, or a handle or wheel may catch. Call 289-401-7778 with your car's make, model and year before you buy. For a power chair or scooter, a free in-home demo lets you see it fold and try the lift yourself.

Why isn't my model listed?

We only list a model once we have the manufacturer's published folded size, so every answer here is based on real numbers. For anything else, call us and we'll check it for you.
