FAQs

SmartDrive MX2+ Wheelchair Power Assist – Frequently Asked Questions

What is the SmartDrive MX2+?

The SmartDrive MX2+ is a compact, rear-mounted power assist for manual wheelchairs. It provides powered assistance to reduce the effort needed to propel your chair.

Who is the SmartDrive suitable for?

It is designed for manual wheelchair users who can safely operate the controls, steer and brake their wheelchair. An individual assessment helps establish suitability.

Will the SmartDrive fit my wheelchair?

The SmartDrive is compatible with many rigid and folding manual wheelchairs. The correct mounting hardware depends on your wheelchair’s make, model and dimensions, so compatibility must be confirmed before ordering.

Does it replace my wheelchair’s rear wheels?

No. The drive unit mounts behind your wheelchair, allowing you to retain your existing rear wheels and handrims.

How is the SmartDrive controlled?

Control options include wired SwitchControl buttons and the SmartDrive MX2+ app on compatible wearable devices. The most appropriate option depends on your abilities and preferences.

Can I control it with an Apple Watch?

Yes, a compatible Apple Watch can operate the SmartDrive through the MX2+ app. Check current watch and software compatibility before choosing this option.

Is the SpeedControl Dial still available?

No. Permobil has withdrawn all SpeedControl Dials, including replacement units, because of safety and performance concerns. Existing users should stop using the dial and contact their supplier about an alternative control. This action applies to the dial, rather than the SmartDrive MX2+ drive unit.

Does the SmartDrive steer and brake for me?

No. You remain responsible for steering and braking using your wheelchair’s handrims. Switching off the motor assistance does not automatically brake the wheelchair.

How much does the SmartDrive weigh?

The drive unit weighs approximately 5.7 kg.

How far can I travel on one charge?

The stated range is up to approximately 20 km. Actual range varies with user weight, gradients, surface conditions and how the assistance is used.

What is the maximum speed?

The specification listed for this product is 6 km/h, approximately 3.7 mph. Confirm your selected configuration before ordering.

What is the user weight range?

The specified user weight range is 14–150 kg. Your wheelchair’s own weight limit and the manufacturer’s combined-weight restrictions must also be observed.

Can it help on hills, ramps and carpets?

Yes. SmartDrive can provide assistance on suitable hills, ramps and carpeted surfaces. Always stay within the operating limits of both the SmartDrive and your wheelchair.

Can the drive unit be removed for transport?

Yes. The SmartDrive is designed for straightforward attachment and removal, making it convenient to transport separately from your wheelchair.

Can I try the SmartDrive before buying?

Yes. John Preston offers SmartDrive demonstrations and assessments in the UK and Ireland. Contact our team to check wheelchair compatibility and try the controls.

What warranty is supplied?

The SmartDrive MX2+ is listed with a two-year limited warranty, subject to the manufacturer’s terms and conditions.  This excludes the battery.
