If imagines a world of new and exciting possibilities. What if the doorway was wider? If only the shelf was lower. Centaur Robotics answers all those possibilities and brings them to life. The Centaur is a ground-breaking electric vehicle designed to give you more freedom. It allows you to do more - and stay connected with life.
If only you could own a Centaur...Now you can.
If all shelves were one metre lower I’d never need to ask anyone for help.
The Centaur seat rises up to extend your reach and see eye-to-eye with others.
So much more is now within your grasp.
If only someone invented a self-balancing chair with just two wheels.
A chair that’s super easy to control with just one hand.
We did. And it’ll be available very soon.
If the dining table was two inches higher, I could join in at family occasions. Just like everyone else.
The Centaur is slim enough - it was modelled on a dining chair - to let you sit at any table.
Liberating. If only life was like this.
If all doors on the planet were six inches wider I would always get my chair through.
The Centaur is narrow enough to go through any door. So nowhere indoors is off limits.
Flexible. If only life was like this.

The Centaur is now in production and ready for pre-order. From the second half of 2024 you could be taking delivery of your very own Centaur. Sign up today if you want to know more.
The Centaur is a self-balancing chair, with only two wheels, which makes it very nimble, unlike four-wheel vehicles which require backwards and forwards shifting to negotiate doorways or obstacles. Tough and powerful, the Centaur is also smaller than many other powered aids to mobility, which means it works well in the home without any expensive adaptations.
Unlike most other vehicles, the Centaur also elevates, allowing the rider to have an eye-to-eye conversation when seated, reach higher shelves or adjust to the perfect height for sitting at a table. Moreover, being discreet and elegant, people see the rider of a Centaur, not so much the chair, which our customers prefer.
Yes it is. The Centaur has been constructed to exacting automotive standards, design and safety protocols and it is as robust and reliable as a new car from a major manufacturer. The easy-to-use, self-balancing mechanism consists of powerful motors controlled by proven software and high-quality components. Additional safety measures are built-in.
For example, there are two powerful motors independently driving each wheel. If one fails, the other ensures the Centaur stays balanced.
Or if the Centaur runs out of power, it will deploy its stabiliser legs and lower gently to the park position.
Not yet. We are concentrating on producing a beautiful, high-quality personal vehicle and we will keep things simple in the early days.
However, we appreciate that riders will want to personalise their Centaur and we hope to offer suitable quality accessories.
The Centaur is a personal vehicle at home in pedestrian areas. It moves happily at 4mph for 10 for more miles in all weathers over any relatively smooth surface.
While it is a very capable machine, it is not designed to traverse rough terrain or deep gravel or sand.
The Centaur is a stable, powerful aid to mobility and it is therefore quite a substantial vehicle. At around 75kg, it is not easily transportable except in a specially adapted cars. However, it is possible to dismantle a Centaur into three sections and reassemble at the destination.
We will deliver Centaurs on a first-come, first-served basis. We will update individual customers on the expected manufacture and delivery dates. Customers are always welcome to contact us for more information on specific timing.
