We’ve seen off-roading wheelchairs before, but the Ziesel off-road vehicle appears to be even more extraordinary. Although this $30,000 wheelchair by the Austrian company Mattro won’t have any problems navigating city streets, it’s through terrain that would challenge walking people that it really shines.
The Ziesel is a 460-pound tracked vehicle that can run up to 4-5 hours on battery and reach speeds of 22 miles per hour. It’s controlled through one joystick, which would probably be helpful to people with control over only one arm.
