That&#8217;s why we include AutoFloor in every <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/fr\/ressources\/full-size-wheelchair-vans-everything-to-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">full-size wheelchair van<\/a> we build at MoveMobility. This floor track system is the secret to making sure everyone feels included and comfortable during their trip.<\/p>\r\n<p data-path-to-node=\"4\">Think of it like a flexible puzzle. It lets you click seats into place or move them around to make room for wheelchairs wherever they&#8217;re needed. You get to decide how the inside of the van looks based on who&#8217;s riding with you that day. Changing your seating layout to fit what your clients need is much easier when you have this kind of flexibility.<\/p>\r\n<p data-path-to-node=\"6\">We know a van that works for a big city paratransit team might not be right for a small First Nation community or a local adult day care. Every group has its own goals. AutoFloor is a favourite for many different teams because it respects those differences.<\/p>\r\n<ul data-path-to-node=\"7\">\r\n<li>\r\n<p data-path-to-node=\"7,0,0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/fr\/ressources\/wheelchair-vans-for-adult-day-programs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Adult day care programs<\/a> use it to bring friends together for social outings.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li>\r\n<p data-path-to-node=\"7,1,0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/fr\/ressources\/services-de-transport-de-patients\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Medical transportation<\/a> teams use it to get patients to important checkups with dignity.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li>\r\n<p data-path-to-node=\"7,2,0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/fr\/ressources\/evacuating-first-nations-communities\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">First Nation communities<\/a> use it to connect elders with their families and healthcare.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_95628\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-95628\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-95628\" src=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/T6-Accessible-Van-20.jpg\" alt=\"Overhead view showing wheelchair and seat space inside Ford Transit T6 mobility van\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/T6-Accessible-Van-20.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/T6-Accessible-Van-20-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-95628\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">AutoFloor pour une disposition flexible des si\u00e8ges<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<h2>Is AutoFloor safe?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Yes, AutoFloor is safe and certified for commercial and personal vehicle use.

Many accessible transportation providers need custom seating options because they transport clients with various mobility needs. There are over 1,000 possible seating and wheelchair layouts with AutoFloor.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Users quickly and easily change seating arrangements to meet the needs of each trip. For example, one trip may require transporting two wheelchairs and two ambulatory passengers, while the next trip may require space for one wheelchair and six ambulatory passengers.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_77221\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-77221\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-77221 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Rear-Lift-Ram-Promaster-14.jpg\" alt=\"si\u00e8ges amovibles sur roues \u00e0 l&#039;int\u00e9rieur d&#039;une camionnette de taille normale accessible aux fauteuils roulants\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Rear-Lift-Ram-Promaster-14.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Rear-Lift-Ram-Promaster-14-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Rear-Lift-Ram-Promaster-14-100x67.jpg 100w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/427;\" data-original-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-77221\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">AutoFloor pour une disposition flexible des si\u00e8ges<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<h2>Is AutoFloor expensive?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>AutoFloor makes up part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/fr\/ressources\/combien-coute-un-fourgon-pour-fauteuils-roulants\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cost of an accessible van conversion<\/a>. A wheelchair accessible van with AutoFloor is typically more expensive than a factory passenger van with a wheelchair lift installed.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Most accessible transportation providers acknowledge the value of AutoFloor because its flexibility brings a return on investment. The ability to customize seating layouts reduces the number of trips they must make, resulting in cost savings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It&#8217;s important to understand that a factory passenger van with mobility equipment added is often a less costly alternative to a van converted specifically for mobility access, but it doesn&#8217;t offer flexible seating.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_194231\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-194231\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-194231 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/MoveMobility-P4-3-in-1-Van-4.png\" alt=\"AutoFloor in a wheelchair van\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/MoveMobility-P4-3-in-1-Van-4.png 640w, https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/MoveMobility-P4-3-in-1-Van-4-400x267.png 400w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/427;\" data-original-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-194231\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Autofloor for flexible layouts<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<h2>Does AutoFloor add extra weight to the vehicle?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>AutoFloor does not change the vehicle\u2019s GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) or the capacity that vehicle operators can carry.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<h2>How do seats and wheelchair restraints fit into AutoFloor?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The built-in track system that makes up AutoFloor is custom-built to accommodate SmartSeats and multiple brands of wheelchair restraints.
