The Opel Mokka has returned in the form of a SUV with rather sporty and striking lines. With a very distinctive look, the new Opel Mokka asserts a real personality.
The German automaker has announced a special version called Opel Mokka
Individual which offers a sportier and more fun design, just to shake up the
wise crossover a bit. Available in only 700 copies and apparently only in
Germany.
The special edition of the Mokka attracts attention with its black and
white look and the sporty striped decorations on the hood and roof, as well as
the spokes of the Red Pepper wheels. We also note that the upper part of the
pavilion, which overhangs the doors, is red and contrasts with the black of the
roof. Outside, the white sport foil decor echoes the jade white present on the
sides and on the exterior mirror shells, emphasizing the contrast with the
diamond black of the bonnet and roof.
Yet shorter than its predecessor Mokka X by 12.5 cm, the Mokka 2 offers
space on board that does not change. Inside, the German urban SUV is modernized
with a so-called Pure Panel dashboard which is full digital with two large
screens of 12 and 10 inches which form a large band.
This large screen is available as standard on the Ultimate high finish
and as an option on the other finishes, including the dynamic GS Line of our
test. The general ergonomics are good, both in terms of the driving position
and the controls accessible by real buttons for the air conditioning or the
volume of the audio system.
This new Mokka 2 also takes a leap forward on the latest generation
driving aids with lane keeping, adaptive cruise control also a pedestrian and
cyclist detection alert.
Powered by the 130 hp PureTech 3-cylinder turbo, the Mokka does not lack
pep on the road. This thermal block displays great qualities in association
with the EAT8 auto gearbox. Very pleasant in its driving with a light steering
and well calibrated in its electric assistance, the Mokka 2 is driven with the
tip of the fingers and reveals a very balanced and particularly lively chassis.
With a very distinctive look, the new Mokka asserts a real personality.
Even if it is not the most livable in the rear seats and its suspension is
stiff with 18-inch wheels, it is still a good alternative in a segment driven
by looks and prices and the Mokka definitely ticks both boxes.
Technically, the Mokka 2 is 4.15 m long, it offers a trunk with a volume
of 350 liters, but despite this reduction, the space on board does not change
compared to the previous version. With its CMP multi-energy platform, the Mokka
2 will be available in full electric 100 kW (136 hp) with 50 kW battery for a
range of 322 km according to WLTP certification and with petrol engines (100 hp
and 130 hp) and diesel (110 hp).
This new Mokka 2 incorporates many latest-generation driving aids with lane keeping, adaptive cruise control and pedestrian and cyclist detection alert. The infotainment system is compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto in order to connect all smartphones.
The Opel Mokka-e
is equipped with a 100 kW (136 horsepower) electric motor. Installed on the
front axle, it develops up to 260 Nm of torque and allows a top speed of up to
150 km/h.
As for the other
models of the PSA group, the electric Opel Mokka offers three driving modes
(Eco, normal and Sport) which will influence the power. A “B” mode, reinforcing
the effect of engine braking, is also available.
Housed under the
floor so as not to penalize trunk space, the battery has a capacity of 50 kWh,
of which 46 are useful. Made up of cells supplied by the Chinese CATL, it
allows up to 322 km of autonomy in the WLTP mixed cycle.
Capable of recharging on a simple household socket or a
dedicated installation, the Opel Mokka-e receives a 7.4 kW on-board charger. As
an option, it can be equipped with an 11 kW three-phase charger.
For charging on fast terminals, the Combo CCS standard is used. Authorizing up to 100 kW of power, it recovers 80% of the battery capacity after 30 minutes of charging.
