There's something timeless about the classic beach car. Sunshine, coastal roads, open-air freedom and the simple pleasure of driving something different.

For decades, the original Mini Moke has been associated with carefree motoring, becoming an iconic sight in some of the world's most beautiful coastal destinations.

Today, anyone searching for a Moke in Portugal, a Mini Moke in the Algarve or a modern electric beach car has more choices than ever.

One of those choices is Drive ÉLAN.

Based in the Algarve, Drive ÉLAN offers a distinctive alternative for anyone considering a Moke-style beach car in Portugal.

Inspired by the spirit of 1960s motoring, ÉLAN combines classic open-air design with modern engineering, individual customisation and dedicated local support.
