Cutting-edge technology on the road
Hill start assist or hill-holder: Alke electric vehicles are designed to take you on every road and route, even on dirt roads or inclines. For additional driving safety, the hill-holder is the feature you absolutely must add to your electric utility vehicle. This system assists the vehicle when starting and on any type of ascent or descent, making it safe, easy and practical to park and start again. In concrete terms, once the ascent is recognised, this system comes into operation the moment the driver touches the brake, locking the wheels. As soon as the driver then moves his foot from the brake to the accelerator, this system keeps the wheels braked, allowing the engine to restart without causing the vehicle to slide forwards or backwards.
Hydraulic tipping: one of our most popular options

This optional extra is designed to be compatible and available for all our models.
