The Chrysler CompanionVan® wheelchair van conversion from BraunAbility is the only accessible van featuring a manual fold-out ramp system that can easily be upgraded to a power ramp later. This dual-function design offers unmatched flexibility and long-term value.
Why does it matter? Cost savings and convenience. As mobility needs change, owners and caregivers can upgrade without trading vehicles—making the CompanionVan® a wise, future-ready investment.
The BraunAbility® CompanionVan features a 50/50 split, side-entry, manual fold-out ramp system constructed from high-strength aluminum alloy. With a 1,000 lb. weight capacity, this durable ramp is designed for long-term performance and ease of use.
The ramp is manually deployed and stowed using an integrated ergonomic handle, making it simple for caregivers or users to operate.

Need more space for ambulatory passengers? The BraunAbility CompanionVan® can be equipped with an optional second-row flip-and-fold jump seat, providing added flexibility for families or caregivers.
With this upgrade, the wheelchair-accessible van can seat up to six ambulatory passengers and one wheelchair user. The flip-and-fold design allows the seat to be easily stowed when not in use, preserving space for wheelchair maneuverability and cargo.
This option is ideal for those who frequently travel with multiple passengers or need a caregiver close to the wheelchair user.
To help save on cost, the Companion Van conversion features a unique, 10-inch center-cut lowered floor. In a center-cut conversion, the lowering of the floor starts behind the front seats instead of the van’s firewall.
To help reduce cost while maintaining accessibility, the BraunAbility CompanionVan® features a 10-inch center-cut lowered floor conversion. Unlike full-cut conversions that lower the floor from the firewall forward, this center-cut design begins behind the front seats, preserving the factory front passenger area.
This design offers several key advantages:
Quieter ride with reduced road noise
Lower overall cost of conversion
Retains center console with cup holders for added convenience
However, because the front floor is not lowered, wheelchair users cannot access this layout’s driver or front passenger position.
Enhance the comfort, flexibility, and long-term usability of your BraunAbility Chrysler CompanionVan® with these available upgrades:
3rd-Row Seat with Rear Footrest – Add more seating and support for additional passengers
Center Flip & Fold Jump Seat – Great for caregivers or extra riders, folds away when not in use
Power Ramp Upgrade – Easily convert from manual to power ramp operation as mobility needs change
