About Banke classics & private vehicles
We’ve been building large lithium-ion battery packs and electric drivelines for heavy-duty vehicles since 2010.
Our roots lie in developing electric power take-off (E-PTO) systems, which power the onboard hydraulic systems on heavy vehicles. Typical applications are truck-mounted cranes and refuse collection vehicles. The E-PTOs substitute traditional diesel-engine-powered PTOs.
Beyond our E-PTO solutions, we also make complete battery-electric and fuel-cell-electric power trains for commercial vehicles.
We’re now offering customized electrification kits to electrify classic cars and youngtimers. Whether your task is to preserve a cherished classic or you seek a sustainable alternative, we can help.
Our engineers are ready to collaborate with you at every step, from conceptualizing your vision to designing and implementing a fully customized electrification solution tailored to specific needs and preferences.
