Advice from the showroom floor
Will the Edge 3 Stretto suit you?
The Edge 3 Stretto is Pride's narrow mid-wheel drive powerchair, made for riders who want full prescription seating in a chair that still threads through the house. The drive wheels sit centrally, so it turns on the spot, and Smooth Ride Suspension softens paving and thresholds outside. It travels at up to 6.25 mph with up to 30 miles per charge. An optional iLevel seat raises you by up to 12 inches.
It begins with an assessment at one of our showrooms, where seating, drive wheel size and controls are chosen around you. Call ahead so a chair is ready to try.

The Edge 3 Stretto in detail
Slim through the doorway, long-legged outdoors. Pride designed the Edge 3 Stretto around a narrow base, then added the suspension and battery capacity for proper days out.
What you get
- Mid-wheel drive that turns through 360 degrees where it stands
- Up to 30 miles between charges from two 62 Ah batteries
- A top speed of up to 6.25 mph
- SRS, Pride's Smooth Ride Suspension, for comfort on uneven ground
- A choice of 12.5 inch or 14 inch drive wheels
- A lap belt supplied with the chair
A seat that rises with you
The optional iLevel system raises the seat by up to 12 inches under power. Shop counters, cupboards and eye-level conversation all come within reach, and it is one of the options we talk through at your assessment.
Specified in person
The Stretto is a prescription powerchair, so nothing about it is off the shelf. At one of our North West showrooms we measure up, agree the seating and drive wheel size, and set the controls to suit. Once the chair is yours, our own engineers look after servicing and repairs, at a showroom or at home.

Faster than 4 mph
Using the Edge 3 Stretto on the road
Anything that goes above 4 mph is a class 3 vehicle. You do not need a driving licence, and there is no vehicle tax to pay. The rules are short:
- It must be registered with the DVLA. Registration is free, and we complete it for you when you buy.
- You must be 14 or over to drive it.
- Keep to 4 mph on pavements and in pedestrian areas. The higher speed is for the road only.
- Not on motorways, in bus lanes or in cycle lanes, and avoid dual carriageways with a limit over 50 mph.
- Insurance is not a legal requirement, but it is strongly recommended.
