This adaptation gives easy wheelchair user access via a
combination of an internal lowered floor section and automatic
lowering rear air suspension with gas strut assisted folding
ramp that has a very shallow angle of incline. With its
roots coming from the Ulysse MPV model it drives like a car
and having 5/6 seats plus wheelchair space, the whole family
is catered for without compromise.
Equally operators such as ambulance, CTA, local
authorities, nursing homes and groups will find its
versatility unsurpassed. The Combinato, with the Gruau
conversion, gives a high quality and compact form of transport
with ease of operation and access. The already superb ride is
enhanced for passenger comfort riding on air suspension.
This conversion has 'Product Agreement' approval by Fiat
and carries 'Conformity Certification'. Warranty is unaffected
with full service back-up. A demonstration vehicle is
available through HILL GRUAU S V, sole UK distributor of Gruau
Special Products, or Fiat Auto UK Selected Dealers. Group
Gruau is a family company, founded in 1889, with an enviable
reputation throughout Europe.
