Permobil have been developing standing wheelchairs for over 45 years. This has allowed Permobil to become the market leaders in standing powerchairs. Now, comes the Permobil M VS, Mid-Wheel Drive Standing powerchair.
The new M Corpus VS brings Permobil’s proven, customizable power standing to the maneuverability of a mid-wheel drive base. You’ll see the same cutting-edge technology and ergonomic design that you know us for, including the fully programmable standing sequences that enable you to find the perfect position using supine, semi-recline, or sit-to-stand techniques. You can further customize your standing position with the adjustable chest support, multiple knee support options, and a power articulating footplate. We also know how important stability, traction, and comfort are to your stand and drive experience, so we’ve got you covered with our new DualLink suspension with fully adjustable, oil-dampened shocks and excellent low-end torque. Because when life moves, we move with you.
Improvements to the Knee-Support make it easier to attach and remove, and store when not in use.
The best-in-class power standing wheelchair is now available on a Mid-Wheel-Drive base, offering increased maneuvrability, and a more compact turning radius.
Standing
Standing brings both health, practical and social benefits. It can aid with respiration and digestion, as well as assisting with pressure relief and promotion the muscular-skeletal system. On a practical level, it extends your reach and ability to interact with your surrounding environment, and aids with face-to-face social interactions.
For many years, Permobil's standing powerchairs have been considered the pinnacle of powered mobility engineering, with a reliability, sophistication and degree of personalisation unmatched by products from other manufacturers, which have tended to be clunky, dated, simplistic or unreliable. The M VS's standing sequence is fully programmable, allowing it to be set to move you through the precise motions to adjust your position comfortably and in a fully supported way. This includes allowing a transfer to stand position from various positions, including seated, laid flat and semi-reclined. Knee and chest supports keep you secure, and are both removable in the event they are not required.
Comfort is King
Corpus®, the world’s leading ergonomic seating system, features biomechanically optimized power positioning along with the Corpus Ergo Seat cushion with redesigned pelvic well and Corpus Ergo backrest cushions with dual density foam. The Stretch-Air cover option is a breathable, machine washable fabric with a low moisture vapor transfer.
More Visible
High-powered LED head lights provide true pathway lighting, making it easier to see and be seen. These are offered at no charge when ordered on Corpus VS configurations.
Redefining Support
The chest support and multiple knee support options on the M Corpus VS are designed for comfort and accessibility. With features like simplified adjustment points and quick release mechanisms, utilizing a standing wheelchair has never been easier.
Next-Gen Electronics
Programming your Permobil is now easier than ever thanks to the new Power Platform. The new, intuitive Quick-Config App offers Programming simplified - wirelessly connect to your Permobil to customise your stand sequences and footplate heights... Without the need of additional hardware or programming cables.
Designed for Independence
Permobil redesigned the knee supports necessary for standing and has created a lightweight, swing-away option that is 75% lighter than the original single-post design. It features improved comfort and allows for a more precision fit thanks to the integrated BOA® Fit System dial for micro adjustments. When you are ready to place or remove the knee supports, the looped release mechanism lets you take care of it independently since it works for a wide variety of hand functions. You’ll love the convenient on-chair storage along the seat rail which keeps the knee supports close at hand, but out of the way when not standing!

Measure from the most posterior point of the body to the inside of the knee, minus at least two inches. Some prefer more leg overhang to make room for their hand when lifting their leg.
B-
Back Height
Measured from the seat base to the top of the chair back. Power wheelchair riders need upper back support, particularly for the moment of initial acceleration.
C-
Hanger Angle
Determines how far the toes extend away from the body, measured from the horizontal. A tighter angle allows the electric power wheelchair to turn around in less space. Depends in part on ability of the knee to bend towards the perpendicular.
D-
Seat Width
Determined by the widest point of the body from knee to hip, plus an inch to ensure room to move. Consider bulk of clothing, particularly a heavy winter coat, if relevant.
E-
Front Seat to Floor
Measure the leg from the back of the knee to the sole of the foot. Then subtract the thickness of the cushion when it is compressed. Next, add a minimum of two inches for footrest clearance. Electric power wheelchairs are almost never footpropelled by the user - so excluding the additional two-inch footrest height for propelling is very rare.
