Can I Get a Mobility / Motability Car on Standard Rate PIP?

Did you know you might be eligible for the Motability car scheme? We have put together this blog post to discuss what rate of PIP you need to be on to be able to access a car, as well as other useful information in regards to the allowance. Being able to use a car or have a close one drive you around in one is a key part of independence. You can get from a to b with ease. If you are considering using this scheme, you may also want to look at purchasing a car boot mobility scooter, which is a portable and foldable scooter you can use on days out. We also have a great selection of travel aids to enhance your travel experiences.

What Are The Rates of PIP? 

The rate of PIP (Personal Independence Payment) you are eligible for will depend on your personal circumstances, The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) will make this decision based on how difficult you find daily and mobility tasks.

What Is The Motability Car Scheme? 

Motability is a charity that helps people pay for vehicles if they are disabled. You will not own the car, but you will lease it. So, if your allowances from the government stop, then you will no longer have access to the car. Your benefit will be directly paid to Motability each month in order to pay for your lease, and the amount of money that goes to the charity will depend on the vehicle you choose.

3) Once you have found the vehicle that suits your needs, you can order it from the dealership and they will provide you with a delivery date.
