The Juvo product range

Independence and flexibility

While developing the Juvo product range in cooperation with therapists and users, we placed great emphasis on individual components that can be combined with one another in a flexible manner. The modular design of the power wheelchairs offers almost boundless possibilities – from the basic model to the high-end version. Design, ease of service and functionality were key as well.

Three types of drives – front-wheel, mid-wheel and rear-wheel drive – are available with specific driving characteristics and motor powers in two frame widths.

Ottobock Juvo with front-wheel drive crossing a curb.
Front-wheel drive

This drive type isn’t just compact but also features a good capacity to overcome obstacles such as curbs. With its relatively small turning radius and the ability to drive close to objects (such as furniture), the front-wheel drive Juvo is manoeuvrable and ideal for indoor use. We recommend testing this drive type extensively in your environment due to the special driving characteristics.

Mid-wheel drive

The all-rounder among the drive types. It features incomparable driving characteristics for all fields of application. The tight turning radius is suitable for indoor use while also providing added stability and safety outdoors. Thanks to the direct pivot point, safe handling is possible even with more complex forms of input.

Rear-wheel drive

The rear-wheel drive sets the standard for power wheelchairs due to its versatility. In addition to offering numerous variations in terms of speed and features, the design also permits optimal distribution of forces to the driving surface. A rear-wheel drive is a great choice if you want mobility indoors and also plan to go on regular outdoor excursions.

Control devices

The quality and user friendliness of a chosen control device not only determine your comfort when driving the power wheelchair but also set all the parameters for your everyday independence. A variety of basic, attendant, special and environmental controls are available for the Juvo. We are happy to advise you!

Extended mobility

 Whether in a vehicle for transporting persons with reduced mobility, using the Dahl docking system as a passenger or behind the wheel – the Juvo is ISO certified and a reliable travel partner.

The right seat

Seating solutions are as individual as every user, and they have to be considered this way, too. This is why we offer various modules that can be combined with one another. The variable adaptable seat (VAS) is one possible seating solution. It is precisely adapted to the individual measurements by the specialist dealer. The Baxx back support system and the contour package are other available seating solutions. 

User Experience

Balancing family and a love of volunteering

When people hear what her day-to-day life involves, they can’t believe Anja is able to balance all these responsibilities. Aside from managing her small family and running the household, she handles a variety of consulting and care assignments on a volunteer basis. But the wife and mother from Chemnitz, who has had a progressive neuromuscular disease since childhood, doesn’t even consider it worth mentioning. She owes a great deal of her flexibility to the Juvo power wheelchair, which she was able to adapt to her specific needs and requirements. “Before, I had to ask for help to hang out the laundry or reach higher shelves in the supermarket. Now I can adjust my seat to the height I need.” The manoeuvrability of the Juvo and its narrow width, which lets her negotiate tight
corridors, is a big plus, especially in labyrinthine doctor’s and therapy practices. “I prefer to spend the time I save that way with my son Pascale in his favourite museum.” She relies on the mid-wheel drive she selected on these trips. “I first had the chance to test this drive type during rehabilitation and loved it straightaway.” Since Anja has a rather rare form of her disease, she doesn’t know what the future holds. Her Juvo will definitely be part of it, helping her make the best of each day with her family’s support.

It’s all about the romance

Nadine’s weakness for castles and palaces in beautiful landscapes isn’t the only sign that she loves romance. Which is why her husband Nick thought up something very special for his wife on their first wedding anniversary: a houseboat tour for lovers – including a picnic on board and floating past a castle. The owner of the company that provides this water attraction is also a wheelchair user, so they’re familiar with the special needs of their guests. What Nick finds so unique about Nadine is her enthusiasm for new experiences. He was continually amazed by her love of discovery on their honeymoon to Italy. “We started in beautiful Lake Garda,” Nadine gushes, “and travelled to various Italian cities.” The German couple enjoyed Milan and Venice in particular. Today Nadine can chuckle about the lack of accessibility they ran into here or there at hotels. “Nick and I get on quite well in such situations.” Once they were back home, their new allotment and its garden shed, which needed thorough cleaning and renovation, was waiting for them among other things. “We already replaced the roof with my family’s help,” Nadine says. “The faster the arbour is finished, the sooner we will be able to use the property with our dog.” Close family ties are important to Nadine. “My brother actually got married the same year as I did. It was a very beautiful and intense time for all of us.” If Nadine has her way, the boat trip will soon be followed by other excursions. “My husband,” Nadine says proudly, “is a real find in this regard. He’s enthusiastic about most of my hobbies and passions, such as music and working with animals.”

Pierre is always ready to go

Pierre will never give up his love of life – and the fact that he has been paralysed since a traffic accident hasn’t changed that. A native of northern Germany with an innate love of the Baltic Sea, Pierre simply relies all the more on the technical support provided by his power wheelchair. It helps him live his everyday life as independently as possible. His custom Juvo lets Pierre do everything he wants to do, both outdoors and indoors. If there’s entertainment to be had near the water, he and his friends will rarely pass it up. Even when it’s flooded with tourists during the high season, Pierre can’t keep away from the harbour promenade. “People are considerate and make room for me,” Pierre says, “when they see our crew coming. I want to get a place in the front row at concerts in particular.” So far, the office administrator has had mostly good experiences on public transport as well and has found that people are happy to help. But he still thinks it’s great that his employer is located just a few hundred metres from where he lives. “The trip there is short, and working in the office is a lot of fun.” Pierre easily operates all his communication media with a chin control.
