See link below to article on the Kenguru electric car whereby a person can drive the car from his or her wheelchair. It has rear entrance.
However, seems that I saw a Cruise Car at an Ability Expo or Access Chicago or online 2 years ago where the driver could enter by ramp from the driver's side and still carry one other passenger in a wheelchair and an ambulatory person. It was in the $25,000 or up range, too.
