Pride Mobility has released a new wheelchair series, the Jazzy EVO 613, for power wheelchair users who don’t require complex seating and positioning. It boasts a host of new features including an option for a lithium-ion battery pack.  

When equipped with the lithium-ion battery, the Jazzy EVO 613Li offers a 25% faster charging time and 25% more range — up to 21 miles — than the same chair with a standard, lead acid battery. In addition, the lithium-ion battery provides full speed through the entire battery cycle instead of losing power as the battery discharges.  

Both the lithium and standard Jazzy Evo 613 models come with a mid-drive setup with 13-inch drive wheels, 3-inches of ground clearance and Pride’s patented Active-Trac Suspension system.  

“The Jazzy EVO 613 series provides the freedom to navigate small spaces and tight corners indoors with a narrow base width of only 22 inches,” said Renae Storie, vice president of Pride Mobility, in a release. “Available with new and stylish high-back memory foam seating that swivels, Pride’s Active-Trac Suspension and maximum speeds up to 5.1 miles per hour, consumers can enjoy greater access and a smoother, more comfortable ride than ever before.” 

The Jazzy EVO 613 retails for $5,099 with a $150 surcharge for the lithium-ion battery option. Both models are covered by Medicare and most private insurances. For more information, check out Pride Mobility’s website, or contact your local DME supplier.
