This foldable wheelchair looks very similar to a Travelscoot but not as
convenient. Travelscoot has a light weight carrying bag.

The folded wheelchair
]
TOKYO Curio Inc, based in Gifu City, and Daido University have jointly
developed a foldable electric wheelchair.
The mass of the wheelchair, Scoo, is about 30 kg, which is about 1/3 that of
products developed by other companies. And it can be easily brought onto a
train, airplane, etc. Its price is ¥380,000.
By folding (1) the operation handle located on one side of the wheelchair,
(2) seat and (3) armrests, in 10 seconds, the wheelchair can be transformed
into a different shape so that it can be carried like a carry case. When
folded, the wheelchair measures 890 (L) x 530 (W) x 350mm (H). It can be
vertically stored in a space with a width of about 400mm.
