Opel Commercial Manager Noah Robertson says they are honoured to play a small part in Moana Pasifika’s inspiring story and be the official vehicle provider for the team.
“This partnership showcases the authenticity behind Moana Pacifika’s sustainability pledge and their focus on benefiting communities. Moana Pacifika was started uniquely as a non-profit organisation to champion Pacifika people, this makes the Moana Pasifika Super Rugby franchise unlike any other professional sports organisation in the world. Going all electric shows the depth of this focus, especially when considering climate change is a well-documented ongoing issue for Pacific Island nations.” Robertson says.
Opel’s Mokka Electric represents boldness and vibrancy reinforcing the company’s attitude of not being afraid to challenge the status quo.
As a team, Moana Pasifika’s purpose is to be a rising wave, encouraging everyone to reach their full potential and succeed in all areas of life. Partnering with Opel means they can live this vision everywhere they go.
The new car also incorporates Pacific Island patterns, staying true to the heritage of the team.
With no Petrol costs and lower EV running costs, as well as no air or noise pollution, this move means the environment and local communities will be cleaner.
The Mokka Electric is a car for everyone, just like Moana Pasifika is a team by the people and for the people. No matter where you come from, you can resonate with the spirit and pride of the team.
