The Opel Mokka (X) Thread

Extended-range Vauxhall Mokka Electric priced from £36,610

British brand’s electric crossover gets upgraded battery from facelifted Peugeot e-208; will be sold alongside standard-range car

Vauxhall has revealed pricing and specifications for its updated Mokka Electric, touting an increased range and more power than before.

Available to order from March, the updated Mokka Electric is priced from £36,610 for the extended-range car, which uses a larger 54kWh unit for a 252-mile range.

It will cost £1000 more across each of the three trim levels, making it less expensive than the equivalent Hyundai Kona Electric, however its range is still down on the Hyundai's by 67 miles.

The long-range model will be sold alongside the standard car, itself getting the same 50kWh battery and 209-mile range as before.

The available trim levels are Design, GS, and Ultimate. Design cars get 17in alloys, a 7in infotainment touchscreen with smartphone mirroring, and a digital instrument cluster of the same size.

 
You can now be bored in a Mokka Electric for even further than before

Advent of Long Range model will prolong the tediu- sorry, transform your Vauxhall-based convenience

Perhaps we’ve been a bit harsh with the headline: the Mokka is by our own admission a bit of a looker with lots of kit. It ain’t a thrill, is what we're trying to say.

Anyway, the Mokka Electric has now borrowed the newer, more efficient motor and battery set-up from the Corsa Electric, pushing range up from 209 to 252 miles between charges. We won’t say no to that.

This ‘Long Range’ option is only four kilowatt-hours better off at 54kWh gross, but liquid cooling and a heat pump push official efficiency up to 4.1mi/kWh, hence the healthier figure.

Power is up too, with 154bhp and 191lb ft good enough for 0-62mph in nine seconds flat. An entire two tenths brisker than the 134bhp version, we should add.

 
Have to agree with JayEmm - I have no good reason to enjoy mine so much.

EDIT: that's roughly 33,000km a year...

The new model looks like garbage though.

This special edition Mokka Electric Griffin is £7k cheaper than the normal car

Vauxhall shaves many thousands of pounds off its EV crossover, and we can't quite work out how...

Stop what you’re doing! Vauxhall has just released a limited edition version of its Mokka electric crossover, dubbed ‘Griffin’, which slashes the entry price of the line-up by over seven grand to £29,495. That’s a sizeable lump to put towards the new garden decking and shed.

Based on Vauxhall's 'Design' trim, the Griffin brings with it a black roof and tinted windows, plus the Mokka's usual colour palette options and 17in silver-finished alloys. Meanwhile the interior benefits from stuff like a rear-view camera and sensors. No skimping thus far.

Inside there are two seven-inch displays by way of the infotainment and digital instrument clusters, and other neat touches such as a heated steering wheel and front seats. Again, not what you'd expect from a cut price chef's special.

The safety suite is generously stacked from entry, too, and brings together various systems like lane departure warning and traffic sign recognition. No doubt those will be reassuring and annoying in equal measure.

 
Vauxhall adds hybrid option to Mokka range for £25,320

Addition means brand's entire range can be bought with either pure-electric, electrified or combustion powertrains

Vauxhall has added a hybrid powertrain to its Mokka line-up, meaning the brand’s entire stable now offers the option of pure-electric, electrified, or combustion power.

The Mokka Hybrid’s 134bhp, 48V system, which it shares with the smaller Vauxhall Corsa, is built around a 1.2-litre three-pot petrol engine supplemented by a 28bhp permanent magnet synchronous motor.

 
The hybrid Vauxhall Mokka is here, and prices start from £25,320

Teeny electric battery, teeny petrol engine, teeny e-range: Vauxhall's latest hybrid is here for your perusal

Be still thine beating hearts: the Vauxhall Mokka Hybrid has landed, and its 48V hybrid setup means it'll be good for roaming city streets for... just over half a mile on pure electric power.
It’s the same tiny 0.89kWh battery, the same 134bhp 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine, and the same dual-clutch six-speed auto ‘box you'll find in the Corsa and Astra, allowing for a 0-62mph sprint of 9.1s. That, says Vauxhall, is "0.1 seconds faster than the equivalent petrol model". Think of all the time you'll save! You'll emit less, naturally, this Mokka Hybrid cutting emissions by 18g/km of CO2 versus a non-electric Mokka.

There are three trim levels available: an exclusive-to-the-Mokka 'Griffin' trim which comes in at £25,320 and gets 17in alloys, privacy glass in the rear windows and a contrast roof, among other things, a Mokka GS for £30,810 (bigger wheels, sportier trim, more tech) and the range-topping Ultimate trim weighing in at £34,115. That one gets extras like adaptive cruise control, keyless entry, an Alcantara interior finish and a massaging driver’s seat.

 
Vauxhall reveals the new, barely-different Mokka, with more tech and... no pack options

Vauxhall tweaks its best-selling crossover, but dramatically changes up the sales approach by simplifying the selections to trim, colour and powertrain

Vauxhall’s given its best-selling crossover a new look. The updated Mokka has a refreshed front end and a plethora of new cabin stuff, including improved tech and a new steering wheel.
The Vauxhall Mokka gets the fascia that also features on the updated Frontera. Nothing’s been massively overhauled, just given subtle improvements. There’s a slimmer grille, contrast trim (instead of faux-chrome) and almost imperceptible changes to the headlights and the badge. The trim running the length of the car also changes from chrome to black, which alone makes the Mokka look more upmarket.

There’ll be a choice of petrol, hybrid or fully electric powertrains. The hybrid uses a 137bhp 1.2-litre petrol engine in combination with a 28bhp electric motor and six-speed auto ‘box.
The e-Mokka has a 54kWh battery and 157bhp motor, making it good for up to 250 miles of range officially. The EV gets special aero wheels and a more sculpted bumper to improve aero performance, though the carmaker doesn’t give any numbers on that.

 
Opel unveils redesigned Mokka Electric, adjusts pricing

Opel announced a new Mokka Electric model year 2025 with a slight change in the design and more streamlined configurations. The new Mokka now comes in only one variant - with 115 kW output and 54 kWh battery.

Previously, the Opel Mokka Electric was offered in two configurations: a 50 kWh battery with a 136 hp (100 kW) motor and a 54 kWh battery with a 156 hp (115 kW) motor. Now, only the latter remains.

Opel has also revised its pricing, and the new Mokka is cheaper than the older one with the same drivetrain. It's now asking €36,740, which is €7,980 discount. However, it still costs €4,060 more than the older base model.

 
Opel Mokka gets fresh look, new cabin tech for 2025

Having transformed into a somewhat trendier compact SUV in 2020, the second-generation Opel Mokka has been given a midlife refresh.

The exterior design alterations are on the subtle side, with designers having opted to mildly enhance the ‘Vizor’ frontal design which this model pioneered four years back.

But look closely and you will see a new Opel ‘Blitz’ logo along with revised LED headlights at the front and rear, and a front bumper featuring a slimmer upper air inlet and smoother lower air dam.

The biggest changes occur inside, where you’ll find an upgraded infotainment system as well as a new steering wheel, flattened at the top and bottom and featuring the new Opel Blitz.

What’s more, all fabrics are now made from materials with recycled content, Opel says, while the centre console between the front seats boasts a cleaner look, as some of the buttons that existed there previously have been integrated into the touchscreen. Why manufacturers keep doing this, we cannot fathom.
