Some ideas
never really disappear.
They simply wait for
the right moment
to return.

The open-air cars of the 1960s became symbols of freedom, sunshine and a more carefree way of moving through the world.

Simple, distinctive and full of personality, they found a natural home on coastlines, island roads and in some of the world’s most iconic destinations.

1960s

The open-air spirit that inspired ÉLAN.

The open-air spirit that inspired ÉLAN.

ÉLAN takes that spirit and gives it a new lease of life.

Not by trying to recreate the past exactly as it was, but by giving this kind of car a fresh identity for today — through colour, style, individuality and, above all, a sense of fun.

We take a proven platform and give it an unmistakably ÉLAN identity.

Reimagined for today.

Petrol or electric.
Classic or bold.
Understated or completely individual.

From carefully curated colour combinations and special editions to fully bespoke commissions, ÉLAN is about creating a vehicle that feels personal.

Because something this full of character shouldn’t feel mass-produced.

It should make you smile when you see it.

It should feel just as at home outside a hotel in the Algarve as it does beside the marina, in the city or heading down to the beach.

Most importantly, it should feel like yours.

The people behind ÉLAN.

Sarah & Alexander

ÉLAN was created around a simple belief — cars should have character, individuality and a reason to make you smile.

Backed by more than 30 years of experience in the motor trade, we wanted to create something that reflected the way we like to live: with colour, personality, freedom and a little more fun.

ÉLAN is not about pretending to be something from the past.

It is about taking the freedom, simplicity and personality that made these cars so memorable — and moving it forward.
