VMI Conversion Models

VMI offers three distinct conversion systems — each engineered for a different user priority — available across Toyota Sienna, Chrysler Pacifica/Voyager, and Honda Odyssey platforms.

VMI Northstar powered in-floor ramp wheelchair van conversion

Northstar®

VMI's flagship conversion. A fully powered in-floor ramp stows completely below the floor, leaving the doorway and interior completely clear. Features Access360® interior space, PowerKneel® lowering system, ParkSmart™ parking sensor, and interchangeable front seats. Ideal for power wheelchair and large scooter users.

VMI Summit fold-out ramp wheelchair van conversion

Summit™

A powered fold-out ramp that delivers more interior space than competing fold-out systems. Features 2-inch safety side rails, Access360® interior space, and full VMI build quality at a more accessible price point. A strong choice for buyers who want VMI reliability without the in-floor ramp premium.

VMI Northstar E caregiver-focused wheelchair van conversion

Northstar E™

The only caregiver-focused conversion with a powered in-floor ramp and front-seat wheelchair access. Designed for attendant-operated transport where the wheelchair user is positioned in the front passenger area, combining in-floor ramp convenience with flexible seating configurations.

What Sets VMI Apart

VMI wheelchair vans are engineered with proprietary technology you won't find on any other conversion brand — built into every vehicle that leaves their Phoenix, Arizona facility.

Access360® Interior Space Patented interior reconfiguration provides the most usable floor space of any wheelchair van conversion, allowing large power wheelchairs to maneuver with ease.
Powered In-Floor Ramp VMI's signature Northstar ramp stows completely below the floor — no obstruction in the doorway, no debris in the cabin, quieter than any fold-out alternative.
PowerKneel® System Lowers the vehicle for effortless, low-angle ramp entry — reducing ramp incline and making boarding smoother for all wheelchair and scooter types.
ParkSmart™ Sensor VMI's proprietary parking sensor alerts the driver if they park too close to a curb or obstacle that would block ramp deployment — preventing a frustrating and unsafe situation.
Galvanneal Steel Construction All VMI conversion components use galvanneal steel for superior rust and corrosion resistance, backed by the industry's best 7-year rust-through warranty.
Interchangeable Front Seats Removable and interchangeable driver and passenger seats provide maximum flexibility — configure the front of the van to fit your specific mobility and seating needs.
Access360® Technology PowerKneel® System ParkSmart™ Sensor 3-Year / 36K-Mile Warranty 7-Year Rust-Through Warranty FMVSS Crash Tested Six Sigma Manufacturing Toyota Gold Certified ADA Compliant Galvanneal Steel
