Mobility in Motion, the UK’s leading manufacturer and supplier of vehicle adaptations and driving aids, will have a unique presence at an upcoming landmark EV consultation event taking place in Newport.

The company will be leasing an EV vehicle, kitted out with the latest driving adaptations, which will be on display at the ‘Electric Experience’ event being held on Friday 18 October at the Geraint Thomas National Velodrome of Wales.

The one-day Electric Experience conference, held by Net Zero Newport, is being held to offer practical insights on the benefits of electric for achieving net zero, bringing home energy improvements, hands-on test drives, charging infrastructure, and funding opportunities.

Among the EV vehicles on show, Mobility in Motion’s vehicle – a 2025 Ford Explorer – will be the only one of its kind, adapted to demonstrate what is possible for people with reduced mobility or a disability, but who still want to retain their independence behind the wheel and explore purchasing an EV vehicle.

The Ford Explorer being showcased will be adapted with the latest boot hoist technology, as well as a Turny Evo swivel seat. The company will also have its newest product on show, its SureDrive hand controls.

Matt Fieldhouse, Managing Director at Mobility in Motion, said: “At Mobility in Motion, we are deeply committed to innovation and enabling independence and accessibility for all regardless of their mobility challenges and vehicle preferences, be that a traditional fuel vehicle or EV.”

“Our presence at the ‘Electric Experience’ event is a testament to our dedication to ensuring that this transition to electric vehicles will be inclusive for all.”

By showing an EV with a range of driving adaptations, we want to demonstrate that companies like ours are committed to ensuring EVs can be used by anyone, whatever their vehicle adaptation needs may be.”
