AOLITE & EIKTO Strategic Collaboration Masterpiece: The E610 High-End Electric Loader Is Coming Soon!

In April 2026, AOLITE officially announced a strategic partnership with EIKTO, a leading Chinese manufacturer of power batteries for construction machinery. The inaugural masterpiece of this partnership—the AOLITE E610 high-end electric loader—is poised for a blockbuster launch.

With a rated load capacity of 1,000 kg, the E610 fills a critical product gap for AOLITE in the high-end compact electric loader category. Powered by the lithium iron phosphate battery system from EIKTO, it sets a new benchmark for the electrification transition of small-to-medium sized construction machinery.

AOLITE: Focused on Compact Equipment, Technology-Driven Progress

AOLITE has long been deeply engaged in the small-to-medium construction machinery sector, consistently building on product reliability, adaptability to working conditions, and a solid customer reputation. The launch of the E610 marks a pivotal step forward for the AOLITE brand:

1,000 kg rated load capacity, precisely targeting small-scale loading operations while striking an optimal balance between agility and productivity.

An all-new vehicle platform, purpose-developed for an electric architecture—not a transitional retrofit from conventional diesel models.

Premium-tier positioning, matching or exceeding industry benchmarks in control precision, intelligent fleet management, range performance, and machine uptime.

The E610 is for users who want lower operating costs, higher uptime, and a quieter work environment. Also, the power battery is a decisive factor in delivering on those promises.

Why EIKTO? Three reasons are enough

AOLITE sets an extremely high bar for battery suppliers. The decision to partner with EIKTO comes down to three undeniable facts.

Reason One: The “Hidden Champion” of Industrial Vehicle Power Batteries

EIKTO was founded in Shenzhen in 2006 and relocated its headquarters to Xuancheng, Anhui, in 2016. Today, it holds national recognition as a High-Tech Enterprise, a National Specialized and Sophisticated “Little Giant” Enterprise, and a National Green Factory. In the field of lithium batteries for new-energy industrial vehicles, EIKTO ranks among the top in domestic market shipments and has established deep collaborations with global leading forklift manufacturers including Linde, Hyster, Toyota, Lonking, LiuGong, E-P Equipment, and HELI.

When the world’s leading industrial vehicle brands consistently choose EIKTO, its technical reliability and product maturity speak for themselves.

Reason Two: A Pioneer in Construction Machinery Battery Solutions

EIKTO is not only a leader in forklift power batteries but also has a strong presence in the construction machinery sector. Major construction equipment manufacturers such as Lonking, LiuGong, and SHANTUI have jointly developed next-generation loader battery systems with EIKTO. EIKTO has also participated in battery-swapping heavy truck projects with State Power Investment Corporation and Three Gorges Green Energy. In 2024, EIKTO launched a full range of new construction machinery battery products, further solidifying its first-mover advantage in this segment.

Reason Three: Full-Stack In-House R&D Capability from Cell to PACK

EIKTO is one of the very few companies in the industry capable of offering a comprehensive one-stop solution for construction machinery that covers cell R&D and production, module design, PACK integration, and sales support. This full-stack capability means that the battery chemistry, cell structure, module architecture, and PACK integration are all deeply coordinated under a unified technical logic. The result delivered to OEMs is a tailor-made power solution—not a generic off-the-shelf assembly.

EIKTO Custom-Develops Cells for E610 Operating Conditions

The E610 runs on lithium iron phosphate “Short-Blade” cells and a battery system from EIKTO—purpose-developed from the cell level around the real-world working conditions of AOLITE compact loaders, with clear and compelling technical advantages.

1. Full-Tab Design for High-Current Demands

The E610 frequently performs lifting, steering, and traveling during operation, placing extremely high demands on the battery’s instantaneous high-current discharge capability. The short-blade cells from EIKTO feature a dual-terminal pole and full-tab design, delivering stronger current-carrying capacity, lower temperature rise, and uniform heat distribution—ensuring stable and ample power output throughout extended operating hours.

2. Anti-Vibration Frame for Rugged Operating Conditions

The cells integrate a skeleton-type anti-vibration support frame, purpose-designed for the high vibration and impact that AOLITE loaders endure on rough terrain, quarry sites, and other harsh environments. The structural strength far exceeds that of off-the-shelf battery solutions, ensuring long-term reliability of the E610 in complex operating conditions.

3. All-Climate Adaptability—From Extreme Cold to Extreme Heat

The battery system from EIKTO supports a wide operating temperature range: charging from -35°C to 65°C and discharging from -20°C to 65°C, with an ingress protection rating of IP65 or higher. Whether in the frigid winters of Northern Europe or the sweltering summers of Southern Europe, the E610 starts up reliably and maintains consistent uptime in all conditions.

4. Maximum Safety—No Fires, No Explosions

Under extreme test conditions including nail penetration, crush, overcharge, and over-discharge, the battery system from EIKTO does not catch fire or explode, meeting both the Chinese GB38031 and international IEC62619 safety standards. For equipment operators and on-site personnel, this is the most fundamental—and most important—safeguard.

5. Long Cycle Life for Lower Total Cost of Ownership

The cells from EIKTO deliver over 6,000 cycles at 0.5C charge/discharge rates. Combined with the efficient electronic control system of the E610, the total cost of ownership over the machine’s full life cycle is significantly lower than that of diesel-powered loaders—delivering tangible economic benefits to users.

CTP Integration: Making the E610 “Small Yet Powerful”

As a 1,000 kg loader, the AOLITE E610 demands a highly compact vehicle layout. EIKTO has developed a tailor-made CTP (Cell to Pack) integrated solution for the E610.

lBy eliminating the traditional module layer, cells are integrated directly into the battery pack, significantly improving volumetric efficiency and freeing up more space for the compact chassis design of the E610.

lLightweight construction reduces overall vehicle curb weight, allowing the E610 to make the most of its 1,000 kg rated load capacity.

lStandardized production ensures consistent quality, higher assembly efficiency, and faster delivery.

This solution not only addresses the space constraints of the E610 but also guarantees outstanding performance in both power output and range.

From Signing to Production: The First Deliverable of a Strategic Partnership

The strategic partnership between AOLITE and EIKTO is not an agreement that stays on paper. With the upcoming launch of the E610, it is delivering the first mass-production outcome of this collaboration. The E610 launch validates the deep synergy between AOLITE and EIKTO in the following areas:

Technology:

The EIKTO battery system and the AOLITE vehicle platform were jointly developed from the design stage, rather than being adapted later. This delivers deep integration between the powertrain and the complete vehicle.

Quality:

The fully automated production lines of EIKTO, combined with MES system digital twin control and a full-chain traceable quality system, provide reliable quality assurance for the powertrain of the E610.

Service:

EIKTO expanded its service network to 100 locations across China in 2025, with additional factories or service centers in countries including Italy and Turkey. This forms a synergy with the AOLITE service network, giving E610 users complete peace of mind.

Beyond the E610

The E610 is the first step in the partnership between AOLITE and EIKTO. Under the joint roadmap, more product lines from AOLITE—including compact loaders and excavators—will gradually transition to the lithium iron phosphate system from EIKTO. Together, the two companies aim to build a pure-electric product portfolio that covers categories such as compact loaders under 2 tons, mini excavators, and skid-steer loaders.

For AOLITE, the upcoming launch of the E610 is more than a new model release—it marks a strong and decisive first step in the electrification of the compact and medium-sized construction machinery sector, backed by industry-leading technology standards, a tailor-made power solution, and proven mass-production capability.
