Among the protagonists of the next edition of Fit Your Camper, scheduled to take place in Bologna from 10 to 12 April, is once again AL-KO Vehicle Technology, one of the world’s leading developers of components and technical systems for recreational vehicles.
At the
AL-KO stand, visitors – motorhome and caravan owners as well as industry professionals – will find specialists and technicians on hand to answer any technical or commercial queries about the company’s many product lines. It will be a genuine opportunity to discover solutions designed to improve the safety, comfort and driving dynamics of recreational vehicles.
Bike racks, motorbike carriers and transport systems
Among the products presented by AL-KO, the VELO, VARIO and LIGERO transport systems stand out, designed to offer greater functionality, flexibility and a contemporary design with black elements and optional LED lighting. The VELO III bike rack is notable for its extremely low weight and capacity to carry up to 80 kg, making it ideal for e-bikes too. The VARIO and LIGERO models offer modular solutions for motorhomes that allow bicycles or scooters to be transported, with loads of up to 150 kg and tilting platforms to make loading easier.
Motorhome technologies: stability and travelling comfort
For the traditional motorhome sector, AL-KO offers structural solutions and suspension systems designed to optimise the vehicle’s handling and liveability.
Among the best-known products are the advanced suspension systems Air Plus, Air Premium X2 and X4, designed to improve stability and ride comfort on vehicles fitted with the AMC (AL-KO Motorhome Chassis) chassis. Also available for installation on vans, low-profile motorhomes and A-class motorhomes, including those with a traditional chassis, are the ACS – AL-KO Comfort Suspension front suspension systems, which help reduce vibration, roll and noise, significantly improving the driving experience.
Also well known and highly regarded are the hydraulic levelling jack systems that allow the vehicle to be levelled automatically at the simple push of a button: AL-KO HY4 and LevelM by E&P Hydraulics.
Caravans: safety and trailer control
In the caravan segment, as a leading supplier of chassis and axles to caravan manufacturers, AL-KO offers technologies aimed at increasing trailer safety and control. Among the most popular solutions are the ATC – AL-KO Trailer Control system, an electronic anti-snaking device that automatically brakes the caravan in the event of dangerous oscillations, and the AKS stabilisers, which reduce pitching and rolling between car and trailer. The range also includes the AAA Premium Brake system, which automatically adjusts brake play to reduce stopping distances, and the Octagon shock absorbers, designed to ensure stability and ride comfort. Completing the range are the Mammut and Ranger manoeuvring systems, which allow the caravan to be manoeuvred during parking via remote control.
Dedicated solutions for vans
The range dedicated to camper vans is also becoming increasingly significant, with products designed to improve comfort and versatility. Among these, LevelVan stands out: a hydraulic levelling system developed specifically for panel vans and made with lightweight materials so as not to compromise the vehicle’s payload. There is also the new LevelM Pro 4x4, a hydraulic levelling jack system for off-road vehicles. Thanks to the integration of the SAWIKO brand, AL-KO also offers a complete range of bike racks, motorbike carriers and tow bars.
Technical advice and specialist support
During the show, visitors will be able to speak directly with the company’s technical team to discuss specific installations or upgrades to their vehicle. For more complex work, visitors can also book a visit to the AL-KO Premium Service Center in Castel d’Azzano (Verona), a centre specialising in the installation and maintenance of
AL-KO systems, offering services such as chassis and axle maintenance, air suspension installation, anti-snaking systems, motorbike carriers, bike racks and self-levelling jacks.
AL-KO Vehicle Technology’s presence at Fit Your Camper therefore represents a valuable opportunity for all enthusiasts and industry professionals wishing to discover, first-hand, the technologies that make recreational vehicles more stable, safer and more comfortable, both on the road and when parked.
