Video Summary
Here are the key points and findings from the video review of the Vauxhall Mokka:- The Vauxhall Mokka’s second generation needed a significant update.
- Sharp looks are matched by a reworked cabin and powertrain choices; split between conventional, hybrid, and EV.
- It is Vauxhall’s second-best-selling model.
- With the updated model, there are smarter looks and a nicer interior.
- The previous Mokka A had handling that was as exciting as a trip to the dentist.
- The lightweight CMP platform changes things considerably.
- An all-electric drivetrain is available, along with a combustion engine.
- There is a pure electric drive train available alongside a combustion one.
- The Mokka doesn't have a history of rewarding drive dynamics.
- It shares underpinnings with rivals not known for their dynamic drive, like the Peugeot 2008 and DS 3 Crossback.
- It's a Vauxhall-flavored version of a basic design, also marketed by Stellantis as a Peugeot 2008, Citroen C3 Aircross, DS 3, Jeep Avenger and Alfa Romeo Junior.
- That a 1.2-liter 3-cylinder petrol engine gives 136 PS in 6-speed manual versions.
- Or there is a 130 PS with an 8-speed auto.
- Irrespective of the choice, it takes 8.9 sec to reach 62 mph.
- The electric powertrain adds over 300 kg of bulk.
- You’ll feel speed bumps keenly, although it’s a bit better than that in the combustion versions.
- The steering is light.
- This is one of the more eye-catching Vauxhalls we can recall.
- The update budget has mostly been spent in the cabin, where the "multimedia pure panel" is present.
- The instrument screen is actually 2 inches smaller than the one from before the facelift
- Has the usual eCall system, with 6 airbags, a blend of carbon fiber style trimming, a nicely contrasting sport seat, and independent climate controls.
- The glover box is halved in size by a fuse box.
- Lumbar support is available on a top-spec edition.
- Electric models get special Aero wheels.
- Rear over-the-shoulder vision is restricted.
- Mokka pricing starts at around ÂŁ25,000.
- This revised Mokka can be said to be more appealing, as it has been styled to be in this segment.
- 0-62 mph takes nine seconds.
- The electric model produces more power with up to 145 PS.
- Can achieve 50% EV drive in city traffic.
