When I bought my 1990 Carat brand new off the lot, the dealer passed along
a $1000 discount if I could prove that the car would be used to transport a
wheelchair-bound person, which it did. It came with a video showing all the
built-in adaptations. At the time I bought the car it was the only one
available to me that did not have a step inside the slider. Since the floor
was flat, I didn't need a ramp. I just rocked the chair back, put the front
wheels on the floor, lifted that back and pushed it in. The seats of course
just clipped in and out on the carat.
