Tradition. Innovation.Vision.
For the last two and a half decades, Invacare has been the industry leader
in powerchair electronics and bases. Every year, our engineers design
chairs, electronics, components and features that consistently raise the

Storm Series®powerchairs in 1995.
Invacare revolutionized the powerchair industry once again in 2003 with
the introduction of the TDX®(Total Driving eXperience) powerchair. With
innovative features such as True Center-Wheel Drive, SureStep®, Stability
Lock, Traction Control Design (TCD™) and the latest MK series electronics,
this chair set the standard for high end rehab powerchairs.

The New Invacare®TDX®Family

Things Just Keep Getting Better… The TDX SP led the way.
Now we've done it again. Invacare built upon a legacy of powerchair knowledge and design to develop the TDX®SP.
The TDX SP improves upon all the features of the TDX Series with enhanced performance, superior ride quality,
overall quieter chassis, and an elegantly simple design that is sure to turn heads. Now we are building upon this
successful platform with a new family of products. Invacare is the only choice for a complete package of Custom
Rehab Solutions.

TRACTION CONTROL DESIGN.
ENHANCED SURESTEP®.
The new TDX®Family uses an
enhanced version of Invacare’s
patented SureStep®technology
that was made famous on the first
generation TDX and the Pronto®
series of wheelchairs.
With Enhanced SureStep, the TDX SP
and TDX SR climb up to a three-inch
obstacle going forward; the TDX SC
and the TDX Spree climb up to a
2.5-inch obstacle. As a new design
feature, the front casters also will
drop a full three inches, which makes
transitioning down an obstacle very
gentle and nearly silent. The
integrated Traction Control Design
also makes climbing over obstacles
up to one-inch high in reverse nearly
effortless.

ELECTRONICS. DESIGNED WITH
BENEFITS FOR ALL.
MK Series electronics are the
benchmark in power wheelchair
drive systems. This is the result of
years of experience in the design
and manufacture of electronics
specifically for the needs of
wheelchair consumers.
MK6i™electronics take the MK
Series to the next level by offering
features that are easier to use than
any other MK Series system.
Advantages of MK6i include:
•MK5™programming logic, so operators
do not need to learn a new system
•Reduced set-up and programming time
with the memory card feature
•Improved simplicity with
universal connectors
•Better information for programmers
and technicians

TRUE CENTER-WHEEL DRIVE.
The tightest possible turning radius
comes from the True Center-Wheel
Drive chassis. The new TDX®Family
uses this type of wheelbase to
provide excellent maneuverability
and an intuitive driving experience.
This technology combined with
Enhanced SureStep®, Traction
Control Design and Quiet Stability
Lock makes the new TDX a great
indoor and outdoor chair.

Quiet Stability Lock.
QUIET STABILITY LOCK.
THE DIFFERENCE MAKER IN REHAB.
The original TDX introduced quiet
Stability Lock, a feature that kept the
powerchair stable whenever it felt
that the driver's weight was rocking
forward. The new TDX®Family takes
that same feature to the next level.
The Stability Lock feature is designed
to operate and keep the powerchair
stable while it is in motion. It is not
intended to operate while the
powerchair ia at rest. This second
generation Stability Lock replaces
the metal gear set used on the first
generation TDX with a gas locking
cylinder, making the feature
whisper quiet. It also provides a
shock-absorbing effect.

The Invacare®TDX®SP is the first
model in the next generation of
TDX (Total Driving eXperience)
power wheelchairs. The TDX SP
takes all the best features of the
TDX series and improves upon
them with enhanced performance,
superior ride quality, quieter
chassis, and an elegantly simple
design.
