Opel has teased the new-generation Mokka ahead of its arrival in early 2021, including in a fully electric version.

The first production cars will be electric and are due to arrive at customers in early 2021

The second iteration of the small SUV – shortened to Mokka from Mokka X – plays a key role in Vauxhall/Opel’s previously outlined electrification offensive and joins the Corsa-e and plug-in hybrid Grandland X launched this year while the electric Vivaro van also arrives in the autumn.

It will be available as an electric version from the start of sales, although the range will also include petrol and diesel versions.

As well as the electric model, the new Mokka will introduce Vauxhall’s latest ‘detoxed’ design language and a fully digitised interior.

Opel CEO Michael Lohscheller said: “I have followed the development of the new Mokka very closely for two and a half years and I am very proud of this new Opel, which will be electric from the very beginning! I can promise that the new Mokka will be one of the most exciting cars in our long history! This second generation shows everything Opel stands for today and in the future, it will change the perception of our brand. Our engineers still have important work to do, but I’m looking forward to presenting the new Mokka soon.”
