Alke' Solar panel powered electric vehicles

• Respect for the environment
• Respect for human labour
• To promote Made in Italy
• Constantly available spare parts in the shortest possible time

Respect for the environment

The packaging of our vehicles is done with recyclable materials (cardboard and wood), we don’t use polystyrene packaging any more. We guarantee that the batteries we retire are recycled in a correct manner and delivered to Cobat. (National Consortium for Exhausted Batteries). We have reduced paper wastage to a minimum in our advertising by trying to use an electronic format for our brochures as much as possible and only sending them when really necessary.

Respect for human labour

We do as much as possible to keep our establishment and stockists in Italy even though it can cost more, because we believe that keeping a short distribution chain can help the current difficult economical situation in Italy.

We promote Italian made electric vehicles

Along our whole production line we use mainly Italian products ( practically all Alke 's stockists distribute Italian products except tyres and batteries). Which are submitted to much more intense controls for health and quality compared to Cinese products. For example, the paint and framework are completely developed by local firms near Padova. Having most of the production in Italy allows us to sustain the 0 km production philosophy.

Constantly available spare parts in the shortest possible time

If you buy one of our electric vehicles, you can be sure you'll be able to repair  and reuse them for a long time: at the moment we're capable of repairing and allowing the use of Alke' vehicles built as far back as 1998.

From this, stemmed the idea of creating a page to help those who really want to talk about environment and need technical informatiobn (it’s not easy to find people who really know about the field of electric systems in Italy), and photographs of our vehicles in REAL working conditions.

Here's some very interesting new facts that have been much appreciated in many countries and received many views in blogs and specialized web pages but aren’t yet known in Italy:

• Sustainable mobility award in Holland: an Alke' electric vehicle leader in sustainable mobility.
• The world’s first electric off-road vehicles come from Italy (In english)
• Electric train on wheels with solar panels has worked for months without need of recharged
• Italian electric vehicles at the king’s court
• Video of working electric vehicles directly from Youtube

Once you’ve placed the link on your webpage please send me a short message using the form that follows, specifying exactly what you’re interested in; we're also available for short phone interviews with the  technicians and engineeers that follow our electric vehicles. We can also send photographs of our electric vehicles in various definitions. We expect our interviews to be published on serious websites and we don’t provide compensation for this kind of articles.
