Opel Mokka Electric 54 kWh

Overview

The 2025 Opel Mokka-e, particularly in this 54 kWh trim, is a seriously stylish compact electric SUV that, while not officially stateside, would turn heads with its sharp European design. It's aimed at city dwellers and those wanting a fashionable EV that's easy to park yet packs a decent punch. Key highlights for this version include an upgraded battery for better range and a striking 'Vizor' front end. As a European model, official US pricing isn't available, but it would likely compete with other chic small electric crossovers if it ever crossed the pond.

What's New for 2025?

For 2025, the big news for this Mokka-e is the uprated 54 kWh battery pack, offering a welcome boost in real-world driving range over earlier iterations. This means more miles between plug-ins, making it even more practical for daily duties and weekend jaunts. While specific model-year tweaks for 2025 beyond this powertrain update aren't heavily detailed for the Euro-spec model, this enhanced battery and associated efficiency improvements are the star attractions, keeping the Mokka-e fresh and competitive in the increasingly crowded small electric SUV segment.

Design & Exterior

Rocking Opel’s distinctive 'Vizor' front grille, the Mokka-e 54 kWh boasts a bold, almost concept-car look that stands out. Sharp creases, available two-tone roof options, and slick LED lighting front and rear give it real road presence. This trim typically rides on stylish alloy wheels, enhancing its sporty urban vibe. Dimension-wise, it’s a neat package: 163.4 inches long, 70.5 inches wide (excluding mirrors), and 60.4 inches tall, making it a perfect fit for tight city streets and snug parking spots. It's a proper head-turner, this one!

Interior, Tech & Cargo

Inside, the Mokka-e 54 kWh features Opel’s ‘Pure Panel’ digital cockpit, with dual screens creating a modern, driver-focused vibe. Expect decent materials for its class, though some harder plastics might lurk. It’s a five-seater, cozy for adults in the back but fine for shorter trips or kids. Cargo-wise, you get 12.4 cubic feet in the trunk, expanding to a useful 42.6 cubic feet with the rear seats folded. No frunk, unfortunately. Infotainment should include a responsive touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, keeping you connected on the go.

Performance & Driving Experience

Under the hood (well, metaphorically!), the Mokka-e 54 kWh packs a single Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) sending 154 hp and 192 lb-ft of torque to the front wheels. This setup delivers a zippy 0-60 mph time of 8.6 seconds, plenty quick for city driving and nipping into gaps. Expect a comfortable ride tuned for urban environments, with light steering making maneuvering a breeze. It’s not a hot hatch, but offers a smooth, quiet, and responsive electric driving experience, complete with adjustable regenerative braking modes to claw back some energy.

Range, Battery & Charging

The Mokka-e 54 kWh comes with a 50.8 kWh usable battery, delivering a Green Cars Compare estimated real-world range of 214 miles – pretty solid for its size. Efficiency is rated at a decent 4.21 mi/kWh. For charging, the standard 7.4 kW AC onboard charger can top it up overnight in about 7-8 hours. Hook it up to a DC fast charger, and it can slurp power at up to 100 kW, getting you a good chunk of range in around 30 minutes. In Europe, it uses a CCS Type 2 port; a US version would likely get CCS Type 1 or NACS.

Safety & Driver-Assistance Features

While US NHTSA ratings aren't available as it's not sold here, the Opel Mokka-e scored a respectable 4 out of 5 stars in Euro NCAP tests. You can expect a suite of modern driver-assistance systems, likely including standard features like automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane keeping assist, and traffic sign recognition. Higher specs or optional packs in Europe often add adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, and a 180-degree rearview camera, enhancing both safety and convenience for the daily grind. A US version would likely mirror these offerings.

Warranty & Maintenance Coverage

If the Mokka-e 54 kWh were sold in the US, warranty coverage would likely align with other Stellantis EVs. Expect a basic vehicle warranty around 3 years/36,000 miles and a powertrain warranty perhaps stretching to 5 years/60,000 miles. Crucially, the battery pack would typically be covered for 8 years/100,000 miles, guaranteeing against excessive degradation (e.g., retaining at least 70% capacity). Complimentary maintenance isn't a strong Opel tradition but might be offered for a US launch to sweeten the deal. Reliability should be on par with similar Stellantis electric offerings.
