The Ireland’s Best Value Accessible Taxi
Need wheelchair access but want to drive a standard car, with a standard price tag? Then look no further than the best selling Peugeot Rifter™. If you’re looking for a versatile, low cost access solution, Rifter™ is the answer. Specially adapted from the Peugeot Partner, Rifter™ combines stylish good looks and masses of space with an impressively low price tag. With its unique FlatFold™ ramp, Rifter™ provides a fully wheelchair accessible taxi one minute and a spacious five seater with plenty of luggage the next.
Economy & Drive
Powered by Peugeot’s latest economical Stop & Start diesel engine, Rifter™ boats excellent fuel efficiency – an impressive 68.9mpg* – making it one of the most cost effective taxis on the market today. Smooth and punchy, Rifter™ delivers a fast response and superb poise on the road whilst the large windscreen and door mirrors give you superb all-round vision. Add the choice of manual or automatic transmission and Rifter™ makes the perfect taxi partner, whatever your taste.
*Combined cycle, auto transmission.
Comfort Taxi
With effortless handling and maximum comfort for drivers and passengers alike, Rifter™ is guaranteed to impress. The sliding rear doors make entering and exiting the taxi easy. The spacious interior compartment, which features lots of handy cubby holes, provides bags of room for all. Standard spec such as air conditioning, height adjustable driver’s seat, MP3 compatible radio/CD player with remote controls and cruise control make for a relaxing driving experience, every fare.
Space
Arguably the best feature of the Peugeot Rifter™ is its revolutionary FlatFold™ ramp. When not in use, the FlatFold™ ramp stows away quickly and easily allowing you to take full advantage of Rifter™ cavernous 675 litre boot area. With the ramp in position, flush to the vehicle floor, there aren’t many hatchbacks on the market that offer as much unobstructed space. Add to this Rifter™ roomy interior, which includes numerous handy storage areas, and both driver and passenger can travel in perfect comfort.
Accessibility
When you need it, Rifter™ lightweight ramp simply lifts from its position on the vehicle floor to give you quick and easy wheelchair access. The vehicle also features a lowered floor, providing a shallow ramp gradient to make wheelchair entry and exit easy. Restraining the wheelchair passenger couldn’t be simpler either thanks to Rifter™ four-point wheelchair restraint system and full lap and diagonal inertia seat belt.
