Many brand new disability vans are indeed more costly than standard vehicles for a number of reasons. For starters, the cost of specialty handicap-accessible equipment that must be installed is in addition to the cost of the standard vehicle chassis itself. Such conversion equipment can be costly, and includes the wheelchair ramp or lift, driver assistance controls, reinforcing the vehicle structure, lowering the vehicle floor or raising the roof—to name a few. There's also the cost of labor to install and test this equipment to consider. There aren't a lot of trained and certified professionals who are qualified to do this work, which raises the cost of their services. In addition, mobility vans must undergo stringent government safety tests in order to be certified to be ready for general public use. At Classic Vans, we recognize that buying a vehicle is one of the biggest purchases most people make in their lifetime. For this reason, we do our best to keep the cost of our new and used disability vans as low as possible. We'll work with you to find an affordable vehicle that meets your needs.
