Electric Wheelchair Rental & Hire in Istanbul
An electric wheelchair lets the user travel further independently, without having to self-propel or rely on a companion to push. Many visitors search for an automatic wheelchair: it is the same thing, a powered chair driven with a joystick control.
We offer electric wheelchair rental by the day for your stay in Istanbul. Each listing shows the weight capacity, seat width and chair weight and, where the manufacturer provides it, an indicative range per charge and whether the chair can also be pushed in manual mode.
Who an electric wheelchair suits
A powered wheelchair suits users who find self-propelling tiring, or who cannot self-propel but can operate a joystick safely, and visitors planning long days on the move. It is heavier and bulkier than a manual chair, so think about how it will be transported if you plan to use taxis or a private car.
How to choose an electric wheelchair
- Weight capacity: pick a model rated above the user's weight; capacities differ between our electric wheelchairs.
- Range and charging: check the stated range and make sure the chair can be charged overnight where you are staying.
- Size: compare the chair's width with hotel doorways, lifts and bathrooms.
- Transport: ask whether the chair folds or comes apart, and how heavy the parts are, before planning car journeys.
- Controls: the user should be comfortable operating the joystick and brakes before going out alone.
Taking an electric wheelchair beyond Istanbul
Planning a flight, train or ferry journey with the chair? Check battery and carriage rules with the operator well in advance. The chair can travel with you around Turkey, but collection is always from an address in Istanbul.

Delivery in Istanbul
Electric wheelchairs are heavy to move, so delivery to your hotel or home is usually the easiest option. Our delivery and pickup service covers Fatih, Beyoğlu, Sultanahmet, Taksim, Bakırköy and Zeytinburnu, and other Istanbul addresses pay an extra location-based fee. There is no airport delivery or collection: arrange the handover at your accommodation and use your airline's passenger assistance at the airport.
Electric wheelchairs: rental questions
Is an automatic wheelchair the same as an electric wheelchair?
Yes. 'Automatic wheelchair' is another name visitors use for a powered, joystick-controlled electric wheelchair. Our electric wheelchair rental listings cover these chairs.
How far can an electric wheelchair go on one charge?
It depends on the model, the user's weight, hills and the weather. Where the manufacturer gives a range, it is shown in the model's specification. Plan to charge the chair every night.
Can I take a rented electric wheelchair on a flight within Turkey?
Airlines set their own rules for powered wheelchairs and batteries, so contact your airline before you travel. The chair must come back to an address in Istanbul for collection.
How much does electric wheelchair hire cost?
The daily price is listed on each model and in our equipment catalog. Delivery charges for your address and any deposit are confirmed before you book.
