“The Opel Mokka is now even bolder, purer and sharper. We have tweaked it in the right places to make the bestseller even more confident and attractive for our customers. We are very pleased that auto motor und sport readers agree and have voted the Mokka the best-looking small SUV. And I can promise: The new Mokka GSE, trimmed for excitement in its performance and design, will make the hearts of the public beat even faster,” said Opel Germany brand boss Patrick Dinger.
Strong appearance: New Mokka crisper, more modern and more digital than ever
The Opel Mokka can be summed up in three words: Modern, compact and with the extra style factor. Opel’s best-selling SUV has always been a real character type and the brand with the Blitz added even more charisma this year. On the one hand, this is due to its further sharpened design: Opel has underlined the visual strengths of the Mokka with a soft pen – with the latest Opel Blitz, a more modern interpretation of the LED signature at the front and rear in light blocks, and with black accents that range from the bonnet to the design line running along the side. On the other hand, the Mokka shines in fresh body colours. The metallic paint finishes Kolibri Blue and Tropikal Green – both reserved exclusively for the Mokka – as well as the plain-tone Grafik Grey set the scene for the eye-catching SUV.
But it’s not just the body design of the Mokka that creates a wow effect. The interior has also been refreshed: The steering wheel, flattened at the top and bottom, not only conveys a sporty character, it also brings the Opel Vizor into the cabin with the Blitz in the centre and reflects the Opel compass of the exterior design with horizontal lines. The centre console, which shines in a matt silver tone, is even clearer than before. The designers and engineers have integrated some settings that were previously controllable via buttons into the central colour touchscreen of the digital infotainment system. The entire cockpit design looks fresher and more valuable, as if from a higher vehicle class. For example, the design of the remaining switches for the electric parking brake and the selectable driving modes (on Mokka Electric and automatic variants) comes from the top-of-the-line SUV Opel Grandland, which also recently caused a stir at the IAA Mobility as the new Grandland Electric AWD – Opel’s first all-electric all-wheel-drive vehicle.
With its successful mix of sharpened design on the outside and clear, digital styling in the interior, the Opel Mokka has won over auto motor und sport readers. For the 25th time, they voted online for their design favourites. A total of 14,000 readers cast their votes this year. There were 117 new products to choose from in 13 classes. The official award ceremony will take place in Stuttgart on October 13.
