Invacare Corporation announced the introduction of a new, narrow version of the Invacare® AVIVA® STORM RX™ rear wheel drive power wheelchair. The narrow base model offers several new features compared to the standard version of the AVIVA® STORM RX™, a next generation chair launched in August 2021, including: Overall width of 22.4” – A reduction of 2”; Small seat sizes – Seat sizes as small as 11”x11” (Ultra Low Mini), a reduction of 3” vs Ultra Low Maxx; Light – Weight of the chair reduced by over 13% (45.4 lbs.); Tight turn radius – Reduced by 0.4”. The AVIVA STORM RX series is an innovative leap forward in the company's rear-wheel drive power wheelchairs, focused on improving the experience for end-users through design, technology and performance.

Design: With its sleek base, the flared front end supports use of the center mount foot platform for overall turning radius reduction, enables the legs to tuck under the chair, allows a user to get close to their environment, and facilitates easy stand pivot transfers. Technology: Rehab-redefining LiNX® technology continues to enhance the set-up process with new and improved features. From pre-set programming parameters, to live wireless programming, to integration with ASL specialty controls, set-up is as simple as turning on the LiNX remote.

Standard LED lighting system helps users illuminate the area in front of them. Performance: With a short wheelbase and narrow width, the AVIVA STORM RX gives a compact base footprint for excellent maneuverability. The all-new patent-pending Invacare SureGrip™ suspension system helps provide a smooth and quiet driving experience indoors and outdoors.

A rear anti-tipper utilizes a shock absorber to help respond to vibrations and noise, providing a smooth, quiet ride. The drive motor is pushed down for better traction as the rear anti-tipper is engaged over a bump and the front caster bearing has an elastomeric dampener to help reduce vibrations and impacts.
