FR Conversions Rear Entry Mini Vans: In 2020 Dodge discontinued the Dodge Caravan. For several years, none of the large manufacturers had a replacement minivan conversion package that could be converted to ADA accessible. In 2023 FR Conversions released their new conversion package on the Chrysler Pacifica and Voyager platform. Abby Vans is pleased to announce that we are a dealer for FR Conversions and have transitioned to them exclusively, as we replace our current fleet of converted mini vans. Abby Vans has found their conversion package to be first in class for providing accessible transportation. Abby Vans plans to use both their Taxi Cut (1 Wheelchair) and Long Cut (2 Wheelchair) converted vehicles to serve this contract.
FR Conversions Features: 97” X 37.74” Tub • 1000# • 36.25 No-rattle Spring Assisted Rear Ramp with Dual Latches • Steel Bumper Caps • 2nd Row Factory OEM flip seats •150 Mil Thermoplastic Flooring • 8 Side and Click Q’Straint Floor
FR Driving Dynamics: Unlike other mobility van providers, FR’s best-in-class conversions retain OEM driving dynamics. This means our vans are easy to handle, allowing drivers to take curves smoothly and safely. The ride is quiet and comfortable for both drivers and passengers. And FR’s wheelchair ramps never move, clank or rattle while the van is in motion — creating a whisper-quiet ride.
FR Quality & Safety: Quality at FR goes above and beyond finishing and final inspections. We subject all our vehicles to intensive crash testing that exceeds minimum industry requirements. Our minivan conversions meet or exceed ADA and Federal Highway Safety Standards. Our taxi conversions are approved by transit authorities in New York, Boston and other major cities.
Abby Vans is currently operating these conversion package vehicles in several systems with very positive feedback. This conversion package allows us to accommodate oversize/bariatric mobility devices. We have plans to continue updating to this platform for future vehicle replacements.
