Wheelchairs are built with the highest technology possible to help facilitate the lives of people with the incapacity to walk. Due to the high level of technology, resources, and building capacity prices are set higher than manual wheelchairs. Many people do not understand the processes of how a wheelchair is built and what the testing process consists of. There is so much research dedicated to developing wheelchairs for different needs so that each wheelchair can improve the user’s life. Certain designs help improve mobility specifically in outdoor environments while others focus on compatibility to allow users to travel even with tight space. Other focuses of designs are like ensuring that they are lightweight yet remain study to ensure long use periods.

Finally, another test includes the electrical aspect of it to ensure the life of a wheelchair meets their minimum in order to get approves. These reasons will help the reader identify on a personal level why electric wheelchair may be higher priced in comparison to the manual wheelchairs. There are many barriers the electric wheelchairs must fight against which cost money.
