Why choose electric in Bora Bora?

4 good reasons to choose an electric vehicle for your stay in Bora Bora.

🌊

Respect for the lagoon

Zero emissions, zero noise. Bora Bora's lagoon deserves to be preserved.

🚗

No licence required

Limited to 45 km/h, the Eli Zero is accessible to everyone, with no driving licence required. Perfect for every traveller.

Solar energy

Our 50 solar panels across 2 sites produce more than double what we consume. A first in French Polynesia since 2015.

🔔

Silent

Enjoy the sounds of the island: birds, the lagoon, the wind in the coconut trees.

A Fun Car powered with solar energy

For the time in French Polynesia and since april the 27th 2015, Avis Bora Bora has launched new electric fun cars 100% charged with solar energy.

The electricity from the local network is produced with generators. Using this energy coming from gasoline for our electric cars was nonsense.

That is why we deployed 50 solar panels (2×25) across our two sites — Vaitape and Matira — for a total installed capacity of 16.5 kWc covering approximately 63 m². On sunny days, our installations can produce up to 50 kWh per day. For cloudy days, we store energy in 30 kWh of batteries (20 kWh at Vaitape, 10 kWh at Matira).

During the day, our vehicles are charged directly with the energy we produce and we sell back the excess production to the local network.

After one year of operation we have a very positive balance: we produce approximately 16,500 kWh for a consumption of 7,000 kWh — more than double our needs.

Please do not hesitate to contact us about this project and to visit our installation if you are interested !!!

The Eli Zero: the ideal vehicle for Bora Bora.

In 2022, we upgraded our fleet to the Eli Zero, a next-generation electric vehicle. Its two passengers sit side by side — much more enjoyable as a couple — and the cabin is air-conditioned, a real comfort under the Polynesian sun.

Limited to 45 km/h and without a licence, it allows you to travel freely and safely around Bora Bora while respecting the environment.

It is easy to drive and perfect for enjoying Bora Bora's amazing landscapes without any noise. Come and try it !!!


From Twizy to Eli Zero

We launched our solar electric adventure in 2015 with the Renault Twizy — then one of the only fun electric cars available on the market. For nearly 8 years, the Twizy became the iconic symbol of eco-friendly tourism in Bora Bora. In 2022, we made the transition to the Eli Zero: a newer, more comfortable and more modern vehicle. The key improvements: passengers sit side by side (far more enjoyable as a couple) and the cabin is air-conditioned — a real bonus in the Polynesian heat. It keeps everything we loved about the Twizy — two seats, no licence required, charged with 100% solar energy.
