The Moke is 100 percent electric, street-legal, and eco-friendly.

Plug it into any 110 outlet for 40 miles of fun; no special charging stations are required.
From British classic to Caribbean icon, Moke has become a symbol of fun in the sun. What began as a military invention for the British army in the late 1950s became a cultural touch point with celebrity fans like Brigitte Bardot, Princess Margaret, Jane Birkin, the Beach Boys, and even James Bond. Created by the British Motor Company and Alec Issigonis, the father of the original Austin Mini, the Moke was designed to be combat-ready, a car that could be parachuted from the skies. While its life as a military vehicle didn’t last long, the open-air car became beloved by stars, surfers, and Caribbean travelers. Moke became synonymous with easy breezy island chic and has appeared in 4 James Bond movies.
Moke America CEO and Founder Todd Rome reintroduced the Moke in 2016 with a few important changes. Not only is the open-air vehicle electric, but it’s larger, sturdier, and more modern than its predecessor. Rome expects to see double-digit growth over the next decade with traditional car companies leaning into electric vehicles. By 2030, brands such as Jaguar, Bentley, Cadillac, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz, and Rolls-Royce plan to produce 100 percent electric lineups, but Moke America is already here. Between high fuel prices and the growth of electric vehicles as an eco-friendly alternative to gas guzzlers, electric vehicles are just scratching the surface of the category’s potential.
“I first fell in love with the Moke from my vacations to St. Barts. I founded Moke America with the idea of, literally, reinventing the wheel. The classic Moke, which was originally from Great Britain, had numerous problems but had an unbelievable look and feel and defined the word cool. The Moke touched on cultural points from surf culture to Brigitte Bardot and many other celebrities like The Beach Boys and James Bond. We took a 20th-century collectible car and reinvented it with 21st-century green-friendly electric power. Even better, all the cars are built in Sarasota, FL in the USA. ” – Todd Rome, Moke America
Moke America has also debuted two special limited-edition James Bond 007 Mokes available for sale, including the “007 San Monique” and the “60 Years of Bond” Moke in celebration of the 60th anniversary of the film franchise. Both models pay homage to James Bond’s eternal style.
Celebrity owners and aficionados include the Kardashians, Joe Jonas, Sophie Turner, Jay Leno, Pamela Anderson, David Letterman, Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez, Martha Stewart, Katharine McPhee, and more. Having partnered with luxury brands, such as Louis Vuitton and Valentino, and Miami-based luxury hotel groups, such as The SLS, The Setai, and The Breakers, the easy-breezy luxury cruisers have become a favorite of Southern Florida country clubs, golf clubs, vineyards, and resorts.
