  • Patent number: 10246909
    Abstract: A handle for a vehicle door is provided. The handle includes a fixed part, a grip lever being moveable according to a grip axis between at least an active position in which the rotation of the grip lever activates the opening of the door, and a rest position in which the grip lever does not rotate, an electronic active position, in which the grip lever activates an electronic unlatching of the door. A blocking element is moveable between a blocking position in which the grip lever is inhibited from rotating from the electronic active position to the mechanical active position and an unblocking position in which the grip lever is free to be moved to the mechanical active position. The present disclosure further relates to a corresponding vehicle that includes the handle.
