    Default ride vehicle question - Little Mermaid

    I read that the clam-mobiles for the new Little Mermaid ride includes one that it wheelchair accessible. I have not been able to find an image. Is this like the one on the clam-mobiles at Epcot's Finding Nemo ride?
    Anyone know which style load it is? I'm also wondering on the tightness of the space - as getting onto Buzz Lightyear is a much tighter fit . . .
    Does the wheelchair guest have space for one passenger beside in the Clam mobile?

    The car the accepts the wheelchair is not a clam shell. It is made to resemble King Triton's chariot. There is room for one wheelchair and a companion. If you look-up King triton chariot for little mermaid you''ll be able to see an image of it.

    They are more like the doom buggies at Haunted mansion. I found a picture on google it was from a Disney Blog. Not sure I can post the link here. So, go to google images and type in Wheelchair in the little Mermaid ride and a few pics should pop up. The back has a ramp that comes down and they stop the moving floor for you to roll in and then you are on your way under the sea.

    We actually saw the special car the last time we were down there. It is so cool because anyone who is wheelchair-bound can enjoy this wonderful ride. Kudos to Disney....

    DD used the LM wheelchair car on our last trip. It was super easy.

    The CM's slowed the ride and pulled down a ramp and loaded her onto the car. She insisted on riding alone, so she did, but there was room for one of us to have joined her.

    It was one of the easiest transfers/loads we did all week.
