Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle (WAV) Conversion Kit

The B-Active WAV conversion kit by B-Style enables conversion specialists to transform the Ford Transit Custom L2 Diesel & PHEV into a fully wheelchair accessible vehicle: quickly, safely, and without welding. This fully tested and EU type-approved solution is designed for efficient installation and long-term reliability. With key features such as a lightweight ramp, a lowered floor, and optimal seating position for the wheelchair user, the B-Active kit allows conversion companies to offer high-quality, future-proof mobility solutions that meet the growing demand for accessible and sustainable transport.

Personalization Options for the Transit Custom Diesel & PHEV Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle

Enhance the interior of the Custom Diesel & PHEV WAV with a range of high-quality customization options. You can choose a durable vinyl floor for a sleek and practical finish. The side panels can be upgraded with stainless steel trim for added protection and a modern look. An integrated LED strip is available, which automatically lights up for improved visibility and ease of use.

To improve ramp operation, a gas spring can be added for smoother handling. Additionally, the ramp can be fully folded inward to lie flat, creating extra luggage space when no wheelchair is being transported.

B-Active Custom Diesel & PHEV

The B-Active Custom Diesel & PHEV is a more comfortable choice for the wheelchair passener, because the floor has s large flat area. This creates much more interior space, as the distance to the roof is great. The wheelchair space is also wide which will give a comfortable feeling.

B-Active Pop-up Ramp

The ultra-light taxi ramp pops up from its flat-folded position, allowing you to tilt it with minimal effort. This user-friendly design makes it easy for anyone to lift and operate the ramp—no strength required!

PHEV battery pack

The battery pack remains completely untouched during the B-Active conversion. This means that the vehicle’s original high-voltage system is not affected in any way, ensuring that the factory warranty on the hybrid system remains fully intact. A significant advantage for both converters and end users.

Configurations

No fewer than four rows of seats can be created in the L2 version of the Custom Diesel & PHEV. This allows you to transport a maximum of nine able-bodied passengers or 7 plus a wheelchair user. The first two rows of seats remain original Ford. The third and fourth row have optional B-Style swivel seats, one on each side, for a total of four.

Custom Wheelchair Taxi

Transporting wheelchair passengers daily and intensively? The new Ford Custom is ideal for professional use as a wheelchair taxi, thanks to the high-quality B-Active wheelchair conversion. Extensive durability testing ensures the reliability of all components, including the ramp and locking mechanism. This allows you to operate the Ford Custom as a wheelchair taxi for many years, worry-free.

Ease of use is a top priority — for example, the belts can be attached to the wheelchair outside the vehicle. A built-in safety feature prevents the wheelchair from rolling backward on the ramp, allowing only upward movement. Convenient and safe! When no wheelchair passenger is on board, the pop-up ramp can be folded inside to create more luggage space.

Installation for converters

To make the Ford Custom Diesel & PHEV L2 suitable for wheelchair accessibility, a section of the vehicle floor is precisely cut out. B-Style provides a cutting template to ensure that the opening is exactly the right size and position. The lowered floor section fits seamlessly into the vehicle, creating a lower entry point and more headroom and space for the wheelchair passenger.

Everything required for the conversion is included in the B-Active kit—such as the lightweight wheelchair ramp, safety belts, and all necessary fasteners and mounting materials.
