TV’s Dr Hilary Jones Impressed By New TGA Maximo Scooter At Mobility Roadshow
Posted: 9th July, 2015
The new folding Maximo mobility scooter making its debut at this year’s Mobility Roadshow, was demonstrated to Dr Hilary by Tim Ross, TGA National Sales Manager.
TGA has successfully showcased its leading range of mobility scooters, hosted a safe driving awareness programme and welcomed TV’s Dr Hilary Jones onto its exhibition stand at the Mobility Roadshow that was held 25-27th June 2015, Donington Park, Derby.
Dr Hilary is currently Good Morning Britain’s Health Editor and is a respected medical broadcaster, writer and GP. He was given the honour of opening the 2015 Mobility Roadshow and a guided tour around the show focusing on new and innovative products.
The Maximo is the latest addition to this new TGA family of folding scooters that combines feature-rich design with leading transportability.
It can be folded into a compact size with a single, one-handed operation and requires no parts to be dismantled for storage.
Despite its longer and wider chassis, the Maximo can be easily stored in the boot of a hatch back, estate car or 4×4. The Maximo ‘ride’ is one of the smoothest available through active, all-round suspension and pneumatic tyres.
Its anti-tip castors also ensure safety and stability when tackling uneven surfaces and the Maximo has an impressive user weight capacity of 21 stone (133kg). The powerful 270w motor and high quality S-Drive controller provide exceptional performance with a range of up to 12.5 miles (20km). When charging is required the battery can be easily removed by the user.
The Maximo incorporates many additional features that elevate it above other competitor products. From high visibility, low energy LED lights to a folding seat, the Maximo combines an impressive range of characteristics – all engineered with a precision, quality finish.
