Efficient and Electrified - New Opel SUV Trio: Opel Grandland, Frontera and Mokka

  • For electric fans: All-New Opel Grandland Electric, Frontera Electric and Mokka Electric
  • Extended range: STLA Medium platform enables up to around 700 kilometres of battery-electric, locally emissions-free range (WLTP 1)
  • Electric All In: Opel provides relaxing electromobility and peace of mind with included e-services when purchasing a battery-electric passenger car
  • For ‘electric newcomers’: Opel Grandland, Frontera and Mokka Hybrid with 48-volt system
  • Freedom of choice: Top-of-the-line SUV Opel Grandland, family-friendly Frontera and sharp Mokka form youngest SUV trio on market

With all-new Opel Grandland and Frontera as well as new Mokka, Opel offers youngest SUV trio on market and right model for every taste. From the compact, further sharpened Mokka to the family-friendly Frontera and the new top-of-the-line Grandland, each SUV is already available to order – with powerful and efficient, electrifying drives. Each of the three newcomers is available both all-electric and thus locally emissions-free and with efficient, fuel-saving 48-volt hybrid drives. In addition, the Grandland even comes as a dynamic plug-in hybrid. All customers need to do is decide which model and which drive is best suited to their needs.

Travelling locally emissions-free: All-New Opel Grandland, Frontera and Mokka Electric

All-new Opel Grandland not only shines with innovations such as the new 3D Vizor with illuminated Opel Blitz logo and illuminated OPEL wordmark at the rear as well as glare-free Intelli-Lux HD light or the practical Pixel Box for inductive smartphone charging. The ‘Golden Steering Wheel 2024’ winner4 is also the first Opel based on the BEV-native STLA Medium platform. Grandland Electric customers already have the choice of two 157 kW (213 hp) electric variants, which propel the Grandland from 0 to 100 km/h in 9 seconds and offer ranges suitable for everyday use and travelling.

With the 73 kWh battery (usable capacity), all-electric SUV can cover up to 523 kilometres (WLTP 1) between charging stops. In the Grandland Electric GS with an 82 kWh battery, the range increases to up to 582 kilometres (WLTP 1). And soon, the 97 kWh battery will even be able to cover up to around 700 kilometres (WLTP 1) with zero local emissions. If the Grandland needs to be recharged, it takes less than 30 minutes to charge to 80 per cent of the battery capacity with a charging capacity of up to 160 kW at a public fast charging station.

If customers want to drive a stylish and individual, yet more compact SUV in the city and beyond, they can order the new Opel Mokka Electric with a 115 kW (156 hp) electric motor. Thanks to efficient packaging, the engineers were able to ensure an exemplary range with a compact size of the 54 kWh battery. This means that up to 403 kilometres (WLTP 1) can be covered locally emissions-free. The space-saving underfloor location of the battery enables a low centre of gravity and ensures that the new Mokka Electric stands confidently on the road. And with 260 Newton meters of torque available immediately, the battery electric car provides quick acceleration from a standing start and plenty of driving pleasure.

At the same time, the new Opel Mokka Electric comes with state-of-the-art infotainment. The further developed bestseller already offers a 10-inch digital driver information display and an equally large colour touchscreen as standard. If the new Mokka has integrated navigation, map updates are loaded into the system over the air. As in the Grandland, the system can now learn and independently suggest destinations and route guidance based on the habits of the linked driver profile thanks to ChatGPT5 (available with Connected Navigation).

New Opel Frontera not only stands out as an exceptional and flexible SUV with its robust design and numerous practical solutions in the interior. The family-friendly newcomer also makes everyday driving and holiday trips a pleasure thanks to its drivetrains. In line with Opel's ‘Greenovation’ approach, every Frontera is electrified. Customers who want to travel locally emissions-free can already order the battery-electric Frontera Electric with 83 kW (113 hp) and 44 kWh (usable) battery and drive up to 305 kilometres (according to WLTP 1) without charging stop. As a ‘long-range’ version, the new Frontera Electric will soon be able to travel up to around 400 kilometres (preliminary range according to WLTP1) between charges.

Electric All In: Enjoying relaxing road trips with new all-electric Opel SUVs

But the new Grandland Electric, Mokka Electric and Frontera Electric are not only easy to drive and charge. Opel is making electric mobility simple and affordable for customers – starting with the vehicle purchase. Customers who buy a battery-electric Opel passenger car will now receive numerous services on top. ‘Electric All In’2 is the name of the formula that makes the switch to electromobility child’s play and everyday motoring more pleasant. The offer includes services such as an eProWallbox Move for quick charging at home, Opel Connect PLUS pack 6 and eight years of mobile charging assistance and roadside assistance7 as well as battery guarantee.

Best of two worlds: All-New Opel Grandland, Frontera and Mokka as 48-volt hybrids

Customers who prefer driving electrified and saving fuel without having to change driving and operating habits or having to connect the car to a charging point, can choose the hybrid variants with 48-volt system. The clever, cost efficient and compact 48-volt hybrid technology of the Grandland Hybrid, Frontera Hybrid and Mokka Hybrid offers many advantages in everyday use. The drivetrain includes a lithium-ion battery that charges automatically under certain driving conditions, as well as a 100 kW (136 hp) turbocharged 1.2-litre petrol engine (Frontera Hybrid additionally with 74 kW (100 hp) available). The three-cylinder engine was developed specifically for hybrid use and comes in combination with an electrified six-speed dual-clutch transmission and a 21 kW (28 hp) electric motor.

Technology is especially effective in city traffic. The electric drive supports the petrol engine when accelerating and starting from a standstill. The electric motor contributes torque, especially at low engine speeds, which benefits driving dynamics and CO2 savings. At low speeds, the electric motor also enables all-electric travel for up to one kilometre or up to 50 per cent of the time driven in the city. When Opel Grandland, Frontera or Mokka Hybrid slow down at higher speeds, the petrol engine switches off while the electric motor acts as a generator to recharge the 48-volt battery of the hybrid system. The optimally coordinated system is designed to always provide the best performance with the lowest energy consumption.

And customers looking for a third electrified drive variant will find what they are looking for in the new top-of-the-line Opel Grandland SUV. All-new Opel Grandland plug-in hybrid offers a locally emissions-free range of up to 87 kilometres (WLTP 1). With a system output of 143 kW (195 hp) and 350 Nm of maximum torque in combination with the electrified seven-speed dual clutch transmission, a lot of driving pleasure is guaranteed. Front-wheel drive car sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.8 seconds; A top speed of 220 km/h is possible.

All-new Opel Grandland celebrated its world premiere in Eisenach this spring. The general public could see it up close for the first time at the festivities marking 125 years of automotive production in Rüsselsheim. Customers will be able to order the top-of-the-line SUV “made in Germany” from October 10 and will have a choice of three electrified drivetrains. Prices for all-new Opel Grandland Hybrid with 48-volt technology start at €36,400 (all prices RRP including VAT in Germany). Alternatively, customers will be able to opt for the plug-in hybrid variant for prices starting at €40,150. And Opel Grandland Electric will also be available with a 157 kW (213 hp) electric motor, 345 Nm of torque, 73 kWh battery (net capacity) and a locally emissions-free range of up to 523 kilometres (WLTP 1) from €46,750. Furthermore, the battery-electric SUV will be offered with 82 kWh battery (net capacity) and a locally emissions-free range of up to 582 kilometres (WLTP 1) in the extensively equipped GS trim for prices starting at €51,950. But that is not all. The new Grandland is the first Opel based on the BEV-native STLA Medium platform. With the 97 kWh battery, which will be available soon, the Grandland Electric will be able to cover up to around 700 kilometres (WLTP 1) between charging stops. One thing all Grandland variants have in common: They all offer numerous innovative technologies, clever features and sustainable solutions along with a stunning appearance thanks to the new 3D Vizor – which even comes with illuminated Blitz emblem in the GS trim.

“With the groundbreaking Opel Experimental study, we gave a preview of the future of our brand. The new Opel Grandland, which will be available to order shortly, makes many visionary innovations a reality for customers It is a bold, clever and pure SUV that was designed and engineered in Rüsselsheim and is built in Eisenach. And the future-proof drive portfolio leaves nothing to be desired,” said Opel CEO Florian Huettl.

Electrifying newcomer: Stunning SUV with practical solutions

Stylish and dynamic, spacious and versatile with a fully electrified drivetrain portfolio – this is the new Opel Grandland. The new top-of-the-line SUV brings visions to life – starting with the design. The 3D Vizor with illuminated Blitz logo proudly sitting at the centre immediately attracts the eye while the permanently illuminated “OPEL” lettering at the rear makes a clear statement.

The visual highlights underline the impressive stance of the largest Opel SUV. The new Grandland generation has a vehicle length of 4.65 metres, a width of around 1.93 metres and a height of 1.66 metres. This makes the new Grandland 173 millimetres longer, 36 millimetres higher and 49 millimetres wider than its predecessor. This increase in size benefit both the passengers and the luggage compartment. The 2,795-millimetre long wheelbase and the long roofline which flows into the tailgate increase the space available. Passengers in the second row benefit from 20 millimetres more legroom. The rear seats can be folded down 40:20:40 and thus, create a load volume of up to 1,645 litres.

In the cockpit the slightly driver-oriented 10- or 16-inch central display and high centre console generate a sporty feeling. Behind the steering wheel, a discrete wide and fully digital cluster provides essential information, allowing the driver to focus on the pleasure of driving and, in combination with the Intelli-HUD head-up display, avoiding the need to take their eyes off the road. Drivers also have the option of triggering the Pure Mode. This reduces the content on the driver information cluster and the central display and ensures even less distraction when driving at night or at high speeds. In typical Opel tradition, frequently used settings such as climate control can also be operated intuitively via a few remaining buttons.

The ergonomic seats with individually adjustable side cushions, certified by Aktion Gesunder Rücken e.V., also ensure pure and, above all, relaxed driving pleasure. The patented Intelli-Seat ergonomics feature is already standard on all front seats. A special slot in the middle of the seat reduces pressure on the tailbone and increases driving comfort, even on long tours on the motorway. And true to Opel’s “Greenovation” approach, 100% of fabrics and coverings in the interior are made from materials with recycled content.

Practical and innovative solutions such as the Pixel Box, which comes as standard depending on the trim level, also make the journey more enjoyable. With the illuminated translucid glass and the fabric wrapping, this element not only enhances the visual appeal of the console – it is also highly functional. The wireless smartphone charger is located behind the glass so that devices can be charged while being stored safely. The constant visibility of the smartphone also helps to ensure that it is not forgotten in the vehicle when leaving the Grandland. 

Storage compartments such as the phone pockets in the backrests of the front seats or the large storage under the central console which also accommodates a 12V socket represent further clever storage space.

Elsewhere, Opel’s new top-of-the-line SUV comes with an extensive array of driver assistance systems including Automatic Cruise Control with Stop & Go function, Extended Traffic Sign Recognition, Intelligent Speed Adaptation, and In Crash Braking. Parking and manoeuvring is also made easier by park pilots at front and rear, the rear-view camera with automatic cleaning function and the 360-degree Intelli-Vision camera. And the glare-free IntelliLux HD light, which for the first time in the new Grandland has more than 50,000 elements, increases safety when driving in the dark.

“Greenovation” a la Opel: Electrified, free of chrome and with recycled materials

Opel demonstrates its “Greenovation” approach by using recycled materials in the interior, not using chrome and purely offering electrified drivetrains. This approach not only benefits the climate, it is also good for the driving performance of the new Grandland – the first Opel to benefit from the Stellantis STLA Medium platform, which was specifically designed for battery-electric models. The new Grandland has particularly flat battery packaging as well as numerous energy-saving features including the heat pump, which is standard in Germany. With the Grandland Electric, which will be available from prices starting at €46,750 and including a 73 kWh battery (net capacity), up to 523 kilometres (WLTP 1) can be covered between charging stops. For €51,950 the Grandland Electric will be available in the extensively equipped GS trim with an 82 kWh battery and the range increases to 582 kilometres (WLTP 1). The 97 kWh battery will soon be able to cover up to around 700 kilometres (WLTP 1) with zero local emissions. And if the Grandland does need to be recharged, it takes less than 30 minutes to charge to 80 percent of the battery capacity at a public fast charging station.

At the same time, Opel gives everyone who does not currently want to drive a battery-electric vehicle a choice of alternatives. Although the STLA Medium platform is optimised for electric cars, it can also accommodate other drives. Alternatively, customers can also choose the hybrid with 48-volt technology. It comes with a 1.2 litre turbo petrol engine with 100 kW (136 hp) as well as 21 kW (28 hp) electric motor and electrified six-speed dual clutch transmission (from €36,400). The plug-in hybrid comes with 143 kW (195 hp) system output and 350 Newton meters of torque (€40,150). Regardless of the drivetrain, the Grandland always combines dynamic and comfortable driving pleasure thanks to its chassis which, on the electric and plug-in versions even comes with advanced Frequency Selective Damping (FSD) technology as standard.
