The Volkswagen Caddy and Ford Transit Tourneo Connect are frequently used for wheelchair transportation. Driving the wheelchair in and out of the vehicle is still a difficult job, despite the installation of a ramp. Fortunately, this can be made a lot easier! Our full air suspension system on the rear axle makes this possible. The air suspension can lower the vehicle at the rear – this is also known as 'kneeling'. However, this is not the only advantage of a full air suspension system; it also ensures a constant ride height, which reduces spring sag. In addition, the system offers improved driving characteristics, which benefit both the driver and the wheelchair user.
Full air suspension for the Volkswagen Caddy and Ford Transit Tourneo Connect
No more need for a long ramp for wheelchair entry and exit
Thanks to the convenient 'kneeling function' of the air suspension, you can lower the rear axle of the vehicle with the push of a button. This significantly reduces the angle of entry, eliminating the need for a long ramp. The animation demonstrates all the benefits that a full air suspension system can provide for your Volkswagen Caddy or Ford Transit Tourneo Connect.
Improved driving characteristics
Wheelchair users want to experience a sense of security and confidence en route to their destination. This means you want to be able to offer tailored transport solutions. Our product – the VB-FullAir 2C – alleviates the physical discomforts wheelchair users may experience. This makes it easy to get a wheelchair into and out of the vehicle, while the full air suspension system ensures improved driving characteristics such as a constant ride height and a stable vehicle.

We have updated our brochures!
We're already through October and the end of the year is in sight. Before you know it, we'll be settling in for those chilly evenings again: lighting the stove, putting our feet up and getting the tablet out while relaxing on the sofa.
We were keen to celebrate a special moment with Martin!
Today, 20 October, was officially our colleague Martin Uffink's last day of work and marked the start of his retirement. He chose not to work up to the very last minute: with some hours saved up and annual leave owed, his last day at VB-Airsuspension was actually back in August –on Thursday 22nd, to be precise.
