Why is it anything for the disabled person is so expensive? I just feel we are getting ripped off all the time. The manufacturers know we need certain items especially Wheel Chairs and Mobility Scooters but the cost of these are so high. What is a Wheel Chair? Its a seat with a frame and wheels, so why does it cost so much. I have just priced one of these Terrain Hoppers, it was £11500. You could by a decent 4x4 car for less with all the gadgets, so why does this cost so much? Sorry but the manufacturers dont seem to have any morals at all and exploit those that need and would benefit from such equipment.
@@peepresc8002 You obviously don't understand that if a business doesn't make a good profit, they can't stay in business. Especially in these days where so many companies are publicly owned. Investors want to see a profit on their investments or they take that money elsewhere. Not to mention sky high costs for research and development,patents,factories and employees, insurance, and insurance against likely lawsuits where people like you would probably sue the manufacturer is you so much as got your pinky bruised while riding it. Everything is expensive these days, and business aren't in business to lose money or to even not make a profit. If YOUR employer didn't make a profit, then how long do yo suppose YOU might remain employed and not even be able to afford a basic wheel chair? Now all that said, please keep in mind that I DO NOT work for this company so everything I say here is my own opinion. Their view may in fact be more like your own than you realize, I don't know. So Cheerio mates from a cousin in America. (do you guys still say that, "cheerio mates" or was that just on saturday night live and benny hill ??
I love this ❤️❤️❤️ I’m disabled and what a feeling of freedom this would bring. Just the freedom of being outside with family would be so wonderful. I can only dream with social security the basic everyday things are sometimes to much.
Although the motors and batteries are waterproofed, you're right, salt water can corrode. You must hose down the TerrainHopper after being in sea water.
a very well put together video with the music also. I wanted to order a few of those scooters also. I have been shopping for about a few months now and I know what I want in a scooter. thank you for a lovely video.
I Wonder what damage the salt water did later down the line not to mention the grit I took a drive easy rider though a salt water puddle on concrete a week later it wouldn't start.
The Terrain hopper is so cool I think you are very lucky to be showing the world this. I think anyone wanting to learn more about this before they buy it will learn alot.
Feeling sad now ive seen this. Im sad as there are many places I could go with this that I cannot get too on my own. I have a disability and have issues walking. I have a normal wheel chair, however with that overlander 4 I could go anywhere, im sad however as I cannot afford such luxury. What an amazing piece of work, id love to have one.
rob leigh Hi Rob - I'm in the same boat. I would love one of these - but the price is way too high. I tried to get a recumbent trike too - you can get them electric or pedel - but I can't afford one of those either.
rob leigh You could get a finance deal with them. I know someone who could afford all up front and opted for finance. You can only try and see, you might get a nice surprise.
+rob leigh my best freind asked me to resurch this oppition. i go here. i do beile that if you found a good fabricator. and with a bit of tinkering. you could make one half price, not as pritty . but enganuity can win the day. ask around on mini bike forms. the guys there are always kind and up for a chalange, to slpice a quade bike into such dezired creation. would be a chanlange. but it one that i have accepted for my friend . and will abzorbe as much info of the net and work towards a solution. never accect wat the shops offer. thrif and knowlage can see you there. thanks for your time rolfo
Is not there something needed to buy? 11500 € I think is too expensive for us the problem is that these vehicles are not as popular as a car and the single production of course goes into the money comes from the health insurance this does not participate in such a "luxury" handicapped but on life, politics and society take part in this point and the affected are then the plaything, they get to their disability with daily shared where their borders are or should be. I find that inhumane. sorry but that must be said.
Great video etc., and very inspiring! But the consequences of that vehicle ‘hitting’ an area of soft sand doesn’t bear even contemplating! Never ‘tramp’ anywhere that your brain hasn’t been to 10 minutes beforehand!!
Hi there. The side roll bar can be lifted up from either side for easy access or can be completely removed. It's lightweight being made from high grade alluminium. Check out the beginning of the video and you will see how lady gets in. Can convert into a wheelchair as well. Check out other videos and see how it performs over rocks, mud etc.
Damn that is so cool, i'm in the process of getting an assistance dog and would love to upgrade my old scooter to one of those bad boys. Would definitely be able to play with my daughters in the sea then. Going to start save now.

where there's a market to be had and dollars to be made, it will be exploited to the fullest sadly to say.
Very true.

Think it may be beyond what I can afford even on finance, however thank you so much for taking the time to advise that.

Dat zou ik graag hebben want mijn karre is stuk maar de prijs is 15000 euro veel geld?
Look comfortable and cosy.... electric battery ?
I need one of these bad, I have got to get out of the house
well never seen one in USA that would cost a lot here, we don't stick together nobody has fun just think of all the regulations we would have
They are available in the USA . Go to terrainhopperusa.com website or contact Todd Lemay tlemay@terrainhopperusa.com
i think this will be great for Healthy People and please tell me the source Of their charging?
Driving an electric vehicle in water is bad idea.
ROTFLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
can you lift this side around frame for getting in?
I would think salt water will destroy the motors and batteries!
Is there a New Zealand agent for these?
Please email terrainhopper@live.co.uk for information on products. Thanks
EneAdrian Roania
I want one
Bloody too true??????????
It's Electric battery
This wouldn't go over well in the USA because it's not painted camouflage which makes it harder to kill things from.
Whats so wrong with killing things?
perfecto para mi.
Yes You can
Lol
