Mini Moke France: the electric beach car is back
Mini Moke France: The iconic beach car goes electric
There are cars you recognise at first glance. Silhouettes that belong to the collective memory, to childhood summers, to seaside images. The Mini Moke est de celles-là. Et en France, elle revient, sous son meilleur jour.
What is a Mini Moke?
The Mini Moke is a small convertible car that originated in England in 1964, conceived by Alec Issigonis using the mechanics of the Mini. Initially intended as a lightweight and simple vehicle, it quickly became a seaside icon on the beaches of the French Riviera, from Saint-Tropez to Monaco. Its name comes from «moke,» an old English word for a mule, a nod to its robust and unpretentious character.
Open-top, doorless and cheerful, the Mini Moke has never tried to be like anyone else. Today, it’s been reborn as the 100 % electric model: the same timeless design, the same open-air freedom, but silent and with zero emissions. Four seats, a range of up to 129 km, a 2-hour recharge time and a top speed of 89 km/h – everything you need to cruise along the coast without ever going unnoticed.
1964. The birth of an icon.
The Mini Moke was born in England in 1964, Designed to be simple, light, and open to the world. A convertible, without fuss, it quickly conquered the beaches of the French Riviera and the Mediterranean. Brigitte Bardot en possède une. Les hôtels de luxe en font leur voiturette de prestige. En quelques saisons, elle devient le symbole d’un certain art de vivre, ensoleillé, libre, élégant.
The Electric MOKE: The icon reinvents itself
Sixty years on, MOKE International resurrect this legend. The same silhouette, recognisable from a mile off. The same convertible spirit, the same wind-in-your-hair sense of fun. But this time, the MOKE is 100 % electric, zero emissions, and quieter than ever.
In France, it's SUNCAR France, official distributor based in Nice, qui la commercialise, logique pour une voiture née pour la Méditerranée.

This summer, imagine: you're heading down to the beach, the sun already high, the soft-top down, the engine noise replaced by the wind. No windows, no doors, total freedom. This is exactly what the MOKE Electric.
