The first wheelchair-accessible vehicle was recently unveiled in Miami. Manufactured by Miami-based VPG, the MV-1, known as the "First Mobility Vehicle", rolled off the assembly line in Indiana in September and was presented to Marc Buoniconti this fall.
Buoniconti, who suffered a spinal cord injury while playing college football at The Citadel in 1985, is the president of the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis which has spearheaded significant advances in spinal cord injury research and rehab. “Imagine, I'm getting the very first one. I think a vehicle of this kind is way overdue,” said Buoniconti.
