Although the Dodge Grand Caravan was discontinued in 2021 and replaced by the Chrysler Voyager & Pacifica, many pre-owned VMI Summit wheelchair vans remain available. Built on the Grand Caravan chassis, the VMI Summit conversion features a durable, fold-out wheelchair ramp with 2-inch raised side rails, offering dependable performance and enhanced safety for users up to 54 inches in seated height.
This handicap-accessible van also includes noise-reducing engineering and retains many of Dodge’s most popular factory features. With 1.5 inches of additional ground clearance, the VMI Summit helps prevent undercarriage scraping, making it a reliable and practical mobility solution.
The VMI Summit Dodge Caravan wheelchair van features a reliable fold-out ramp system designed to accommodate manual wheelchairs, power chairs, and mobility scooters with a weight capacity of up to 1,000 pounds. Both the power sliding doors and the ramp can be conveniently operated using the factory key fob or interior control switches for seamless access.
In the event of a power failure, VMI’s Sure-Deploy system allows the ramp and doors to be operated manually, ensuring continued accessibility. This accessible van provides flexibility, durability, and ease of use for a wide range of mobility needs.
The Summit Dodge Caravan wheelchair-accessible van features an 11-inch lowered floor that extends from just behind the firewall to the third-row seat. This design creates generous headroom throughout the cabin, ensuring a comfortable ride for most wheelchair users. Additionally, the door opening is enlarged to a usable height of 54 inches, making this accessible van an excellent choice for users needing extra vertical clearance.
The Summit Dodge Caravan wheelchair van includes an automatic kneeling system that reduces the ramp angle, making it easier for wheelchair users to enter and exit the vehicle. When the ramp deploy command is activated, the system engages an actuator on the rear passenger-side suspension, lowering the ramp-side of the van to decrease the incline. For added flexibility, the kneeling function can be turned off using a switch on the dashboard, allowing for easier loading in various environments.
The VMI Summit Dodge wheelchair-accessible van features removable front seats, allowing multiple seating configurations to suit your mobility needs. Whether you prefer to drive from your wheelchair, ride as a front passenger, or create space for additional passengers, the obstacle-free design makes it easy. The spacious interior is large enough to accommodate up to two wheelchairs, making this accessible van ideal for families or caregivers requiring added flexibility.
Every Summit Dodge Caravan wheelchair-accessible van is built with a floor made from high-strength galvaneal steel and coated with an E-coat finish for superior rust and corrosion resistance. This advanced protection extends the vehicle’s life, something not typically offered by competing wheelchair van conversions—making it a wise long-term investment in mobility and durability.
