Rehatrans

What Rehatrans does

Rehatrans S.L. is a Spanish specialist vehicle adaptation company founded in 1996 by Antonio Soriano and headquartered in Getafe (Madrid), with commercial delegations in Cataluña and País Vasco. The company converts passenger and commercial vehicles for use by people with reduced mobility, delivering a portfolio of mechanical accessibility solutions including automatic ramps, elevating platforms, homologated wheelchair anchoring and restraint systems, lowered floors, automatic door-opening systems, swivel seats, and special driving controls (hand controls and steering modifications). Rehatrans holds ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications and operates as an authorized converter or integrated partner for ten OEMs: Volkswagen, Ford, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan, Stellantis (Peugeot, Citroën, Opel, Fiat), Renault, Toyota, MAN, Renault Trucks, and Hyundai.

The business serves four customer segments: private individuals seeking personal adapted vehicles (primary segment), day centers requiring adapted transport fleets, associations and foundations supporting people with disabilities, and taxi/VTC operators requiring regulation-compliant accessible fleets. Its go-to-market is consultation-led and sales-driven: customers request information through the website, the team analyzes each case, and the company recommends a tailored adaptation solution. Distribution is hybrid, combining direct sales from headquarters and two commercial delegations with a network of 60 official distributors and more than 200 post-sale service points covering the Iberian Peninsula. Stated annual production capacity is 550 adapted vehicles, supported by over 5,000 m2 of installations in Getafe and a team of approximately 30 employees.

Revenue is generated primarily through one-time sales of adapted vehicles, including both ready-to-deliver stock units (priced approximately €32,600–€44,000) and custom adaptations of customer-owned vehicles on a quote basis. Rehatrans is a privately held, bootstrapped company (REHATRANS S.L., CIF B81635005) with no disclosed institutional investors, funding rounds, or M&A activity. The founder remains associated with the business, which has grown organically over nearly three decades and serves as one of the established specialist converters in the Spanish mobility-accessibility market.

Broad incumbents

• BraunAbility: BraunAbility is the largest North American manufacturer of wheelchair-accessible vehicles and adaptive driving solutions.

Direct peers

• Autoadapt: Autoadapt is a Swedish provider of vehicle adaptation solutions including wheelchair lifts, swivel seats, and driving aids, historically partnered with Auto-Form. It competes with Rehatrans in the same European adapted-vehicle market, serving both individuals and fleet operators through dealer networks.
• AMF-Bruns: AMF-Bruns is a German specialist in vehicle adaptation for people with reduced mobility, offering wheelchair lifts, ramps, lowered floors, and restraint systems for vans, minibuses, and shuttle vehicles. It is a direct European competitor to Rehatrans in nearly identical product categories and B2B customer segments (mobility operators, care services, taxi fleets).
• Guidosimplex: Guidosimplex is an Italian manufacturer of vehicle adaptations and driving aids for people with disabilities, producing lifts, ramps, hand controls, and steering aids. It is a direct European competitor addressing the same private-customers and fleet segments as Rehatrans.
• Vantage Mobility International (VMI): VMI converts minivans into wheelchair-accessible vehicles in North America, with a product set (ramps, lowered floors, driving controls) that overlaps directly with Rehatrans' offering. It operates a similar OEM-converter business model targeting both private buyers and accessible-mobility fleets.
• Autochair: Autochair is a UK-based manufacturer of vehicle adaptations including lifts, hoists, and driving controls for disabled drivers and passengers. It serves the same customer profile as Rehatrans (private buyers, fleet operators, mobility services) within the broader European adapted-mobility market.

Regional players

• ILUNION Mobility & Accessibility: ILUNION is a Spanish social enterprise (part of the ONCE Foundation group) that operates accessible-transport services and adapted-fleet solutions for people with reduced mobility. It overlaps with Rehatrans in the Spanish adapted-mobility market but primarily as a service operator rather than a vehicle converter, making it both a customer-adjacent and competitor adjacent player.
