Every seat counts: Summerset’s accessible minibus fleet

Wheelchair-accessible Sprinter minibuses, custom-fitted for Summerset retirement villages nationwide — so no one sits out the outing.


  • Flexible seating/wheelchair configuration
  • 5 Elite 4800 leather bucket seats
  • 3 swivel seats and quick release removable seat
  • Internally-fitted wheelchair hoist
  • Heavy duty track restraints
  • Fully certified to New Zealand safety standards

Summerset's retirement villages are vibrant communities with a full programme of day trips and outings, and no one gets left behind, including residents who use a wheelchair.

As Summerset’s ongoing fit-out partner, we’ve built a fleet of accessible Mercedes Sprinter minibuses now in service at villages across New Zealand. Each vehicle is fitted with an internally-mounted wheelchair hoist, paired with a flexible seating layout — permanent seats, three swivel seats, and a quick-release seat — so every trip runs at full passenger capacity whether residents are travelling seated or in a wheelchair.

The result: flexible, dignified transport that keeps every resident connected to the community life Summerset is known for.

The team at Auto Transform are brilliant to deal with, always willing to go the extra mile. We would happily recommend Auto Transform to anyone, and we look forward to our continued dealings with them.
