Dodge-Chrysler Entervan® Wheelchair Minivan
The Dodge-Chrysler Entervan has been the star of the BraunAbility model lineup for over 20 years. This wheelchair van conversion is easy to operate and offers a spacious interior. The one touch power entry and exit system includes a power sliding side door, a power ramp, and a power auto-kneel system to reduce ramp angle and make the van easier to enter and exit for wheelchair or scooter users. The Entervan also features easily removable front seats to allow a wheelchair user to drive the vehicle (when properly equipped with hand controls) or to ride in the front passenger position.

Conversion Features:
Auto Door
The wheelchair van's sliding door opens reliably at the touch of a button. This feature can be activated with the standard keychain remote, or with one of the interior control switches.
Infloor or Fold Out Ramp
The lightweight aluminum ramp extends to allow easy access to the interior for wheelchairs and scooters. A durable, non-skid powder-coated finish ensures superior traction, and the slotted surface helps to prevent your chair from tracking debris into your Entervan or Rampvan handicap van. In the event of power failure, the ramp can be operated manually.
Auto Kneel
To make boarding even easier, BraunAbility handicap vans feature an integrated "kneeling" system. An actuator lowers the rear suspension while the door opens, which reduces the slope of the auto ramp.
Remote Control
The door, ramp and kneeling functions can be activated by the van's original key remote control. Just press the passenger sliding door button twice, and everthing operates automatically.
Lowered Floor
From the firewall to the rear axle, the wheelchair van's floor is up to 10" lower than conventional minivans. With a choice of seating positions, wheelchair users can choose to ride in their chair and enjoy the view.
Removable Seating
For those who wish to ride up front or even drive from their wheelchair, BraunAbility makes it easy: simply unlock the seat base and roll the entire seat out of the handicap van. The seats can be reinstalled into the Entervan and Rampvan just as easily when needed.
Rear Cargo Area
On the Dodge/Chrysler Entervan wheelchair vans, two under-floor storage compartments keep the spare tire and other essentials out of your way until needed, leaving plenty of space for luggage and cargo.
Wheelchair Tie Downs
Each wheelchair van includes a standard floor-track and belt system that secures the wheelchair for transit. An optional retractable belt system, pictured at left, is a versatile and convenient option. Independent users can even elect to have an automatic tie-down installed. Due to the wide variety of wheelchairs and tie-down systems available, we recommend that you check with your local dealer to determine which system will work best for you and your handicapped van.
Folding Seat
An optional second-row folding seat offers additional seating for ambulatory passengers when necessary. When folded, it allows space for wheelchair securement in the center of the van.
