Why choose an automatic car on the Motability Scheme
Automatic cars are a popular choice for many people on the Scheme. They can reduce the number of movements needed when driving, as there is no clutch pedal or manual gear changes.
This can be helpful if:
-
you find it difficult or uncomfortable to use a clutch
-
you want to reduce physical effort when driving
-
you drive regularly in traffic where stopping and starting is common
Automatic cars can also be used with a range of driving adaptations, depending on your needs.
All cars on the Motability Scheme include insurance, servicing, maintenance and breakdown cover. This means you can focus on choosing a car that suits your everyday life.
What to look for in an automatic car
When comparing automatic cars, it helps to focus on how the car will work for your everyday use.
Easy driving
Automatic cars only use the accelerator and brake. This can make driving in stop-start traffic or on longer journeys feel more manageable.
Getting in and out
Some cars have a higher seating position. This can make it easier to get in and out, depending on your needs.
Space and practicality
Think about how much room you need:
-
boot space for mobility equipment, shopping or luggage
-
rear seating for passengers or carers
Features to support driving
Many automatic cars include features designed to support everyday driving, such as:
-
parking sensors or a reversing camera
-
cruise control
-
driver assistance systems
Fuel type options
You can choose from petrol, hybrid and electric automatic cars on the Scheme. The right option will depend on your driving habits and access to charging, if you are considering an electric car.
