Niv'O is a new hydraulic jack system designed to simplify the leveling of motorhomes, particularly those based on Fiat Ducato and AL-KO chassis. This device allows for automatic leveling of the vehicle to achieve perfect horizontal stability while also enhancing comfort and optimizing wastewater management.
Finding a perfectly flat spot can often be challenging while traveling in a motorhome, making the leveling process cumbersome.
Developed by Gekko Distribution, Niv'O consists of a complete hydraulic architecture, including a hydraulic unit, an intuitive control panel, four compatible jacks, and several hydraulic hoses. This system operates automatically but also allows for manual management when necessary.
One of its greatest advantages is the complete elimination of the need for leveling blocks, thereby providing real comfort during motorhome stops.
Automatic leveling improves the quality of sleep for users, facilitates wastewater drainage in sanitary facilities, and reduces vehicle movement caused by wind or internal activity. Additionally, a service function allows the vehicle to be tilted for more efficient wastewater disposal.
Niv'O also offers benefits regarding tire and suspension preservation during prolonged parking. The system is designed to be user-friendly: with a simple press of a button, the jacks deploy and position themselves to ensure optimal balance. Users can also choose a manual mode to adjust the jacks independently, depending on the terrain constraints.
Safety features are integral, with built-in mechanisms to protect both the vehicle and its occupants. Audible alerts notify users of any omissions, and a backup pump allows for retracting the jacks in case of battery weakness.
With Niv'O, Gekko Distribution aims to attract motorhome enthusiasts seeking a simple and effective solution to enhance their travel experience. However, the unit weighs 75 kg, which may impact the payload of leisure vehicles.
Niv'O is now available through Idylcar and Ypocamp networks, with an estimated cost of €6,499, including installation.
