NMEDA membership validates ATC’s commitment to safety, quality, and innovation while bringing truck and SUV conversions to mobility dealers nationwide.
ROANOKE, IN, UNITED STATES, June 23, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — ATC Mobility, the leading provider of wheelchair conversions for trucks and SUVs, today announced that it has officially joined the National Mobility Equipment Dealers Association (NMEDA) as a Manufacturer Quality Assurance Program (MQAP) member. This is a significant milestone that reflects the company’s commitment to engineering excellence, manufacturing quality, and safe, innovative mobility solutions.
The achievement follows the successful Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) crash testing and NMEDA approval of ATC Mobility’s Chevrolet Suburban conversion, expanding the company’s NMEDA-approved lineup of full-size pickup trucks and large SUVs. For wheelchair users, this milestone means they now have greater access to NMEDA-approved trucks and SUVs that qualify for many state and federal funding programs while delivering the safety, capability, luxury, and independence they deserve.
ATC’s SUV approval represents a breakthrough in the mobility industry. A single converted SUV successfully completed all three major FMVSS crash evaluations, frontal impact, side impact, and rear offset, demonstrating the strength of ATC’s patented frame-integrated conversion. The reinforced gull-wing side door and reproduced B-pillar maintain or exceed OEM structural strength on the entry side, an uncommon achievement among mobility conversions.
“Joining NMEDA as an MQAP member represents the culmination of years of engineering, testing, and collaboration,” said Steve Kitchin, President of ATC Mobility. “This milestone validates our belief that wheelchair users should not have to compromise capability, luxury, adventure, or independence to access a safe mobility vehicle. We are honored to join an organization dedicated to advancing quality and safety across the mobility industry and look forward to partnering with dealers nationwide to expand what is possible for the customers we serve.”
Toby Cummings, CAE Chief Executive Officer of NMEDA, had this to say, “NMEDA is happy to welcome ATC Mobility as a new member of our organization. We pride ourselves in assuring that the NMEDA MQAP members provide quality and safe solutions for those seeking vehicle conversions for their mobility needs. The ATC lineup of products opens an entirely new look for our NMEDA dealers to sell and distribute.”
For mobility dealers, ATC’s MQAP membership introduces a new category of NMEDA-approved mobility vehicles designed to complement traditional accessible options. ATC’s full-size trucks and SUVs provide dealers with new opportunities to serve customers seeking premium features, four-wheel-drive capability, outdoor adventure, towing capacity, commanding road visibility, and a vehicle that reflects the lifestyles they have always enjoyed.
ATC Mobility supports its dealer network through national marketing initiatives, customer lead generation, and promotion of dealer inventory, helping connect wheelchair users with the right mobility solution for their individual needs.
