You've discovered a golf cart.
yes, and it's overpriced and oversized
It has to do with the area and regulations. Its very niche. Its for very rich people who live in a golf cart community that want something nicer than a golf cart. People will no doubt wrap these and customize these just like the carts.
I just saw these everywhere in FL in those exact areas. And retirement communities haha
The "low speed vehicle" areas are all over the place in Central Florida. There's a ton of Mokes driving around downtown Winter Park. They're for people with way too much money to burn.
True to some extent, but these are too wide and too fast for many golf cart type communities' cart roads, like The Villages for instance.
But we will have to wait for the full review after a few hot laps of the Nürburgring.
Boom, the San Diego trip is now a write-off!
Livin' in a Barbie world, lol.
Barbie lives in Santa Barbara. Duh.
Please look into the EliZero! It's in Europe now and coming to America this fall. Starts at $12k, has full body that looks like a smart car, air conditioning and heat, lithium battery with 60+mi range. Again, it's designed as a NEV/LSV so 35mph and under communities.
You're right, I just looked at the 'Eli Zero' and the price is more like it, at $12,000 th-cam.com/video/mRqf5eqEac0/w-d-xo.html
Your videos are seriously cool, keep 'em coming!
It’s a golf car with nicer seats and a slightly higher top speed. It starts at 22,975 on their “configurator”.
And if you add the Lithium Battery it's an additional $5,000
@@azbluefox I looked at a 2023 Bolt EUV with 30K miles on it for 18k.
I would say it’s a no-brainer. My guess is these things are only bought in large quantities ay big discounts.
I think Kyle needs to look at golf cart prices. 30k for this (if it's a lithium) isn't terrible.
Idk some 4 seater Yamahas are near half the price
That is a BARBIE Beach Buggy. Should have been in the movie!
Learned to drive in an early Mini and rented a Moke for a week in Barbados a very long time ago. They were a great way to get around when it’s warm out but when it rained, you got wet. I love my EV, but somehow I feel the electric Moke is missing something. The old cars were like go-carts to drive because of their weight and complete lack of protection compared to this. Nice to see a blast from the past, though.
Bond movies usually blew up a Mini Moke. Or drove it into water.
Ouch. Alyssa slamming on Arcimoto when I'm watching this video immediately before taking my Arcimoto to go to a baseball game.
These have been common at high end resorts all over the world for decades….it’s an easy Company branding write off….no brainer really…..
If I had the money to live in a resort town, 1000% would have this. Not everyone is 6’+. At 5’2” on a tall day I STRONGLY prefer small vehicles over large ones. The smaller, the better. If the weather where I was conducive to such an open vehicle, this could handle much of my daily life in a semi-urban community. Golf carts are plentiful here. This expands golf cart range a little bit. I’d love to have this if I lived in a warmer, more upscale location.
Also, seriously Kyle, you can’t really be hung up on a pink vehicle? Pink is VERY classic resort vibe. I’m quite surprised it doesn’t come with a Lilli Pulitzer-designed interior in pink and pale green plaid. Would be epic. VERY retro cool.
I see so many of these by the beach and they look so cool!
I used to drive one around Riverside Raceway back in the day with the A-series FWD motor. Lots of fun.
Price isn't too bad for a low volume electric with LI batteries. The batteries, controller, BMS and charger is rather expensive in low volumes. Cars sold in the hundreds rather than hundreds of thousands- like a Leaf. Also, good promotion for the resort. You can't miss a pink Moke.
Thank You for All that you are doing for our Planet Earth.... Peace.. Shalom.. Salam.. Namaste 🙏🏻 😊 ✌ ☮ ❤ 🕊
Thank you, Alyssa for the voice of reason. It’s a very cute vehicle for the used case. I really think Kyle‘s being a little bit too critical here. Chopped up leaf is no aesthetic thing.
People are not buying these for a daily driver, but for resorts and such. Or to get around your compound. Something you can trust your kids in.
Actually, a local dealer in Milford, Connecticut has 2 white Mokes for sale at $18,000 each brand new... 🚙
15 amps at 70 volts = 1kW charging speed. Considering a 7.x kWh battery, you need 7-8 hours overnight to fill it back up. I saw these at Bert's Mega Mall. My sales guy told me the Kardashians came in recently and bought a bunch of them in random colors.
Kyle I was genuinely laughing during this video. Thank you.
A nice built six seater golf cart with a 72 V lithium battery like that you’re looking at every bit of 20 to 25K
This makes me want to see Kyle review the Myers Manx EV, seemingly the much more grown up version of this same rough idea.
You can rent these in New Caledonia. Noumea
THAT PRICE!!
Some fancy hotel in Thailand just pickup byd dolphin than remove all 4 doors and call it the day haha
The UK website says the Moke sells for £35,995 here, so the price you saw is probably about right.
Perfect Florida Miami or California car ;) Great video Kyle
TIL Kyle is very insecure with the color pink.
Super cool! But the price is absolutely ridiculous. Should be 1/3 the price
If it was in olive drab green or classic white, this would be fun for running around town. Especially in the summer.
As I was typing that, it occurred to me how cool it would be if the VW Thing was brought back in 2025 as an EV.
i first saw this vehicle on the apple series Bad Monkey
The gas Moke was so much fun in the 80s. Know smiling everyone
The moke hit pop culture a *long* time ago in the original Prisoner series, for getting around Portmeirion Penrhyndeudraeth village. That aired in the late 1960s, I'm surprised that they're still a thing...
ingress and egress seems like a big pain for older people. Specially since this is a big market in retirement communities.
What's the name of the Hotel you stayed at? I want to stay a night or two there and test drive a Moke. Been thinking about buying one. They have a dealer in Arizona but they won't allow me to test drive it. Screw them.!!
Yo want to have one in the next Barbie Movie
You need to review a Gem car There expensive golf carts with doors.
Makes me want Strawberry Ice Cream
I think buying up a bunch of BMW i3s would make more sense. Also, you'd have tonnes of cash to cut glass roof into each car. It retains luxury and quirkiness with practicality. Big plus, you can take the i3 on the highway.😅
The biggest reason is insurance. You need to insure and tag the i3's even if you don't use them often. With these LSV's, usually zero insurance is required with some states requiring minimal coverage at less than $100/yr.
I checked on Amazon to see how much the battery cost Amazon priced at $2,800 I still don't see 😮How it costs 30,000
Men are from Mars, women Venus … Kyle loves the red Twizy and Alyssa loves the pink Moke. Both are totally ridiculous toys for the money, but make for fun videos. You guys cover all the bases 😊
That was a fun one! And short! 👍🏼
Have you tested a GEM yet?
If Nissan would take their remaining leafs snd just style them like the Nissan Pao, they might be able to move more inventory and have a Fiat 500 competitor.
Perfect example of the future
30K!?!? 😮
I've seen Leafs go for under a grand lately so... Fun comparison though lol
They just need to figure out a legal way to import a bunch of Twizzy’s
They loan that to you in exchange for your man card LOL. I agree go get an old Leaf or a clapped out Chevy Bolt.
Awesome video
I can't believe you didn't even test the sound system.
Feeling self coconscious for driving this around is absurd for someone who actually paid money for a cybertruck. Nothing is more embarrassing than being seen in that.
This is the something only out of spec will review on haha
Left unanswered is the question whether it can zero-to-60 a golf cart-on-a-trailer faster than a golf cart can go by itself.
All I know is that I want one.
Kyle looks like a giant when he's standing next to it. At 9:07.
When you’re staying at a Rosewood Hotel, you can afford to throw away money. Hence the 25K Moke.
Hmmm, 66 volts at 200 amps, peak power a bit over 13KW, about 17 hp... probably 7KW sustained power for that blistering top speed :)
That Moke is so cute.
It is a good that this Moke is only sold in the US or the Russians would put some chicken wire around it and use it as an Assault Vehicle.🤭
that's actually pretty funny...
😂
Staying at the Miramar!?! Very jealous Mr. Conner.
What etron costs $25k?!
It might take some work but I feel like you could buy a matching set of good condition used BMW i3's for similar money and way better value as courtesy cars
You're totally missing the point of this thing. These are purpose designed for tourist locations. It's hot, you don't want to climb into something and you want the unique experience to feel like you're on vacation. Plus it's a marketing tool for you resort/hotel.
Climbing into an egg shaped BMW is the exact opposite.
@@otm646 makes sense.
That i4 owner got roasted!
Yikes! (@3:10), seat belt Kyle!!!
105ah pack on that is pretty pathetic. I had a lithium conversion done on my 1998 Ezgo and it has the same size pack, a Roypow which is very similar to the EcoBattery. While my 6 passenger LSV cart has a 210ah battery pack...and the cart is probably lighter than the Moke.
Did you drive the Super Cooper Evs? those classic ev minis are like 100k. I think you need to pay a premium when you are trying to convert a classic to ev. If I could I would love to have a classic mini ev.
WHO is stoked about the MOKE only one for sale in Europe in Italy for 19900
Watch out for Gus' Blueberry!
Gated community car.
$30k? You could buy a Bolt for less than that. At least when they were selling Bolts you could.
Golf carts that are legal for the regulations in a golf cart community cost a stupid amount of money, my town just started to allow golf carts and the cheapest ones are like $15k, no clue why you wouldnt just buy a leaf
whats the QR code?
I imagine Alyssa would rate this pretty high on the dog hauler index.
1986, Vice City...
I'm too rich for a golf cart and a side by side isn't allowed in my gated community. :)
Shocked kyle hasn't driven a Chinese chang li neighborhood electric vehicle
It's a Florida retiree mobile. Coming soon in a retirement community near you.
I should just start a business get a bunch of used Nissan leafs 🎨 paint pink and take the doors off of them and call them knockoffs mocks 😅😂
Looks like the Jeep from the old school 1970 monkeys video😅
I owned a Leaf I. No need to buy this car over a Leaf, except for the color.
Definitely NOT an original Moke. The original was a beautiful vehicle. I had one.
Go Moke, you don't go broke.
Your snarkasm is the best.
I would so consider a used Nissan Leaf over this pink EV.
Never die in anything goofy
2:39 dude don’t be that obtuse. The person buying something like this to bop around town in a tropical area isn’t going to “chop the top off” of a used car.
Although I love Mokes, I rather have a Carise
It looks quirky to be honest but also great 😂
You didn’t do a 0-100 charging curve test.
Why on earth would I want to buy 10 used Nissan Leaf? 🤣🤣
Saw a bunch of hot girls get out of these the other day at a gated community. Had no idea what it was other than it was electric, cool golf car though
Monke EV
the barbie car
Polaris Ranger EV seems better built lmao
Go Moke, Go Broke 😂
its pink, its women empowerment, its woke.. i mean moke.
I feel bad for some men who don't know such freedoms as "being fine with any color"
This cart is adorable 💗 I don't think it's competing with cars 😅
If you're going to terrorize a city in that thing it would be better if you dressed in a clown suit.
Thats hideous. Terrible. Terrifying
