Autokraft Electrical & Diesel (AED) New Zealand’s Authorized MAX-SAFE Dealer

Behind every MAX-SAFE system lies a clear mission: to eliminate preventable vehicle-related injuries and fatalities on our roads here in Aotearoa. Developed by SGESCO-MAX in Australia, MAX-SAFE solutions are now trusted by leading fleets across New Zealand to deliver intelligent, intervention-ready technologies that actively protect drivers, pedestrians, and road users—every time a vehicle is in motion or parked.

As New Zealand’s authorized dealer and service provider, Autokraft Electrical & Diesel plays a key role in bringing these life-saving systems to our roads. With extensive technical knowledge and real-world experience, we support businesses nationwide in choosing and implementing the right safety solutions for their fleet — tailored to local vehicles, roads, and compliance standards.

Anti-Rollaway Braking

Helps prevent unintentional vehicle movement by automatically applying the brake if the driver exits without setting it. The system monitors inputs like door position, seat occupancy, and brake status, and intervenes instantly when needed.

Blind Spot Monitoring

Minimises accidents by eliminating blind spots and improving visibility for greater driver awareness.

VRU Protection

Offering a range of advanced Radar and AI Camera solutions to detect pedestrians & vulnerable road users (VRU’s) and preventing collisions.

What sets MAX-SAFE apart is its proactive approach to risk. These aren’t just alert systems — they’re smart, responsive technologies designed to act when humans can’t or don’t. Whether it’s automatically applying brakes to prevent a rollaway or detecting a cyclist in a truck’s blind spot, every system is engineered to anticipate real-world hazards and respond with precision.

Backed by strong local expertise and nationwide support, MAX-SAFE has become the safety solution of choice for leading Kiwi operators across construction, logistics, and civil transport. It’s a proven system, built to meet the demands of New Zealand roads, vehicles, and fleet environments.
