What's inside an electric vehicle? Electric vehicles are much simpler than conventional combustion vehicles. The most important element is definitely the battery, the heart of the electric vehicle. The electric motor converts the energy contained in the batteries into kinetic energy and is much simpler than an endothermic one. Another characteristic element of electric vehicles is advanced technology. In Alkè electric vehicles, for example, it is possible to install the Vehicle Body Computer, which, via the Alkè Cloud platform, enables constant, 360° monitoring of the vehicles.
