Absolute Eye-catcher: New Opel Mokka shines in New Colours

  • Wow effect: Kolibri Blue, Tropikal Green and Graphik Grey set scene for successful SUV
  • Unique look: New colours emphasise bold, characteristic Mokka design
  • Electrifying appearance: New Opel Mokka sharper, more modern and more digital

Modern, compact and with the extra style factor – this is Opel Mokka. Opel's popular SUV has always been a strong character and has recently been introduced with even more flavour. This is not only due to its sharpened design; in particular, three additional new body colours that are now available for Opel Mokka set scene for compact SUV. Metallic paint finishes Kolibri Blue and Tropikal Green – both developed exclusively for Opel Mokka – as well as plain-tone Graphik Grey ensure that new Opel Mokka will continue to be a head turner – especially when unmistakable colours form a characteristic contrast with optional roof painted in Karbon Black and optional black bonnet.

"New Opel Mokka is eye-catching, courageous and confident in every respect. Particularly strong colours suit this character perfectly. That is why we have developed the new paint finishes Kolibri Blue, Tropikal Green and Grafik Grey and added them to our range. Customers can now choose bold colours for their Mokka that also express their own personality," said Nikola Kalabic, Team Lead Current SUV Product Management.


Colour booster: New paint finishes underline bold Opel Mokka character

Opel Mokka dares to be different – from very first glance. Colour Kolibri Blue alone makes new Opel Mokka an absolute eye-catcher – as standard! Customers can choose the deep blue paint for every Opel Mokka variant without having to spend a cent more. If you want to be a little more discreet and just as characteristic, you can opt for Graphik Grey, which makes the contours of new Opel Mokka stand out particularly well. For this and for all other paintwork, just €650 (RRP incl. VAT) are due. And customers who want to convey the sustainable mobility idea in a fresh, new look with their Opel Mokka can opt for Tropikal Green. Paintwork symbolises  Opel's ‘Greenovation’ approach and at same time awakens desire for sporty, efficient driving pleasure.

New Opel Mokka is efficient and resource-saving in many respects. It deliberately dispenses with chrome elements and design applications on body, while fabrics and covers made of materials with recycled content are used in the interior. For example, a seat cover made of new ReNewKnit™ material is available. It conveys high-quality look of suede and is easier to recycle. Electrified, Mokka customers can choose to drive up locally emissions-free in all-electric Opel Mokka Electric or "part-time" in Opel Mokka Hybrid with 48-volt technology. Finally, new digital infotainment rounds off modernized Opel Mokka driving experience.

Unusual, original and always highly efficient – in addition to the advanced technologies and drive variants, the characteristic new colours also contribute to this Opel Mokka experience.

New Opel Mokka: First-class Digital Infotainment Experience

  • Cockpit based on the next generation Snapdragon® Cockpit Platform and Snapdragon® Auto Connectivity Platform from Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.
  • Highly customisable 10-inch digital driver information and colour touchscreen as standard
  • Colour touchscreen can be operated via widgets like a smartphone
  • Natural voice recognition ‘Hey Opel’ in combination with navigation system
  • Intelligent ChatGPT functionalities for the first time in new Opel Mokka
  • 180-degree HD rear-view camera ensures excellent visibility when manoeuvring in city

While new Opel Mokka is as eye-catching as ever thanks to its gently sharpened exterior design, it truly impresses with its refreshed interior with new technologies and innovations. Thanks to the new cockpit and infotainment, Mokka drivers can look forward to an even more connected and relaxed journey. This is ensured by Snapdragon®'s state-of-the-art technology platform as well as standard equipment with 10-inch screens that can be personalised in many ways. With ChatGPT 2, artificial, co-learning intelligence comes into play in Opel Mokka for first time, making every car journey more pleasant and entertaining. New Opel Mokka is stylistically refined on outside and on a new level on inside – bold, pure, intuitive and forward-looking    

Intelligent, intuitive, customisable: Upgraded Opel Mokka infotainment system

New multimedia and navigation infotainment system takes Opel Mokka to next level. Cockpit utilises Qualcomm Technologies’ next generation Snapdragon Cockpit Platform and Snapdragon Auto Connectivity Platform 1 to enable premium in-vehicle experiences, including state-of-the-art graphics, multimedia and enhanced connectivity capabilities such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and 4G.

Further developed bestseller now offers a 10-inch digital driver information display and an equally large colour touchscreen as standard. Latter can be easily operated via widgets, just like a smartphone – alternatively and in combination with the optional navigation system, a ‘Hey Opel’ is enough to use  natural voice recognition. Both displays can be personalised in many ways. System recognises driver's personal profile on connected smartphone; connection is always wireless in new Opel Mokka. Various virtual shortcuts can be set up on central screen and up to seven different colour schemes for preferred ambience offer further customisation options.

When ordered with integrated navigation system, map updates are made available automatically over-the-air. System also constantly learns and – based on habits of linked driver profile – independently suggests destinations and routes. myOpel app can also be used to easily send the destination and the corresponding route to the vehicle. Another advantage for drivers of all-electric Opel Mokka Electric: After entering the desired destination, the remaining charge level of the battery upon arrival is displayed. This is determined according to the previous driving style. Route can also be planned including charging stops along the way. System then calculates possible driving and charging times. And the screen of the battery-electric SUV provides customers with a wide range of information and statistics on energy consumption, charge level and remaining range, as well as energy recuperation.

So much information: ChatGPT makes new Opel Mokka even smarter

In addition, Opel offers an innovative solution for new Mokka and other models to make it easier to find your way around in unfamiliar surroundings or simply to make long journeys more entertaining: ChatGPT 2, which is available in conjunction with Connected Navigation. With functionalities of this generative AI technology, Opel drivers and passengers have access to a wide range of information from a long list of topics. Technology, developed by OpenAI, can return it to its users in a sophisticated and precise way.

For example, when looking for a restaurant in an unfamiliar city, ChatGPT 2 can make suggestions based on personal preferences and offers routing to the chosen destination. It can also answer questions such as which artist performed a certain song, who starred in a blockbuster movie – it can even create a quiz to increase the entertainment factor.

Thus, ChatGPT 2 is another example of how Opel is making top technologies accessible and affordable for a wide range of customers. This has also been recognised by the high-profile international AUTOBEST jury which awarded Opel and other Stellantis brands with the ‘SMARTBEST 2025’ for the introduction of ChatGPT 2 in their models. Award recognises pioneering solutions for onboard connectivity in vehicles.

Enhance convenience and security: Digital displays, multiple connectivity options

In addition to wireless connection of compatible smartphones to infotainment system, personal mobile device can also be charged wirelessly in centre console of new Opel Mokka. Furthermore, portable devices such as smartphones and tablets can also be connected via the USB-C socket in the centre console.

Elsewhere, the new high-definition 180-degree rear-view camera ensures excellent visibility when manoeuvring in the city. When reverse gear is engaged, the view behind the vehicle is displayed on the 10-inch infotainment monitor. In addition to visualisation, signal and warning sounds support manoeuvring in tight spaces.

In all of this, clarity and intuitive operation of assistance systems, infotainment and setting options such as air conditioning were focus of development of Opel Mokka cockpit. Engineers and designers have integrated some settings that could previously be controlled via buttons into the central colour touchscreen. And assistance systems, which are not essential for every situation, can be easily deactivated and switched on again at the touch of just one button. Entire cockpit design appears fresher and more desirable, as if from a higher vehicle class. For example, design of remaining switches for the electric parking brake and the selectable driving modes (on Opel Mokka Electric and automatic variants) comes from all-new Opel Grandland.

‘SMARTBEST 2025’: Opel wins AUTOBEST Award for ChatGPT

  • Top connectivity: International jury of experts honours Stellantis brands for the introduction of ChatGPT in their vehicles
  • Extensive line-up: ChatGPT now available in most Opel passenger cars and LCVs
  • Easy access: ChatGPT activated by a simple “Hey Opel”

Opel makes top technologies accessible and affordable for everyone. This has also been recognised by the high-profile international AUTOBEST jury. The journalists from more than 30 countries have now awarded Opel and other Stellantis brands unanimously with the ‘SMARTBEST 2025’ for the introduction of ChatGPT 1 in their models. The award recognises pioneering solutions for onboard connectivity in vehicles.

“We are delighted to receive this award,” said Vanessa Repp, Vice President Future Product at Opel and Vauxhall. “The unanimous vote of the independent journalists shows that we offer vehicles with pioneering technologies that make driving more enjoyable and that at the same time customers can afford. This applies to locally emissions-free electric drives as well as intelligent connectivity solutions such as ChatGPT 1.”

With ChatGPT 1 Opel drivers and passengers have access to a wide range of information from a long list of topics including science, biology, nutrition, pop culture, music and many more. In combination with the navigation system, a "Hey Opel" is sufficient to use natural speech recognition – which has now become even more desirable thanks to the addition of ChatGPT 1. The system can now learn and independently suggest destinations and route guidance based on the habits of the linked driver profile.

Opel is currently rolling out ChatGPT 1 in the new Opel Mokka as well as in many other models like the new Opel Grandland, the Opel Corsa, the Opel Astra, the Opel Astra Sports Tourer, the Opel Combo and the Opel Zafira. Furthermore, the Opel Combo and the Opel Vivaro light commercial vehicles are also available with the artificial intelligence chatbot.

Crisper, More Modern and Digital: New Opel Mokka available from €26,740

  • Bold and pure: Accentuated Mokka style with new Opel Blitz and LED lighting signature
  • Top technologies: New infotainment with natural voice recognition and widget interface, wireless smartphone connectivity, 180-degree HD rear-view camera
  • Opel Vizor optic in the interior: New steering wheel, even clearer centre console
  • Electrified: New Opel Mokka Hybrid from €29,740, new Opel Mokka Electric from €36,740 (all prices RRP incl. VAT in Germany)

Modern, compact, with an unmistakeable style – this is Opel Mokka. With its bold and pure design, the Mokka has become a bestseller. Now Opel is making the unconventional compact SUV even more desirable – both on the inside and the outside. New accents further highlight the unique character of the Mokka and Opel is also bringing technologies from higher vehicle segments to the SUV B segment. And that is not all, the brand with the Blitz has also opened the order books for the new Mokka. With the efficient 100 kW (136 hp) petrol engine prices start at €26,740. As a hybrid with 48-volt technology it is available from prices starting at €29,740 whereas prices for the battery-electric Mokka Electric with 115 kW (156 hp) electric motor and up to 403 kilometres of locally emissions-free range (WLTP 2) start at €36,740 in Germany. In the anniversary year of “125 years of automobile manufacturing at Opel”, the manufacturer is once again making innovations available for a wide range of customers.

“Our Mokka is a bestseller. Bold, pure and unmistakeable – a car full of character that stands out in the crowd. That is exactly why we have only gently sharpened its contemporary design with the new Opel Blitz and graphic elements. The biggest change can be found in the interior. The cockpit now appears even clearer and takes up the Opel Vizor graphics from the front of the vehicle. In addition, the driver and passengers of the new Opel Mokka can enjoy the next generation of infotainment. We are delighted to open the order books for the new Opel Mokka already,” said Opel CEO Florian Huettl.

Character sharpened: New Opel Blitz, lighting blocks and graphical accents

With its bold and clear lines, including the Opel Vizor, the Mokka has already made its mark. It was the first model to introduce the characteristic brand fascia, which now adorns every new model. This confident design inspires customers – and that is why Opel has not completely overhauled the Mokka's appearance, but rather subtly emphasised its visual strengths. The new Opel Blitz in the centre of the Opel Vizor brand face helps to further sharpen the Mokka's character. The black Vizor visually integrates the new Blitz and the headlights into one element. As on the new Opel Frontera, the familiar wing signature of the LED lights at the front and rear shines in a more modern interpretation with three ‘lighting blocks’ ensuring an uncompromising look.

In keeping with the motto ‘black is beautiful’, a black design line running from the bonnet to the rear above the side windows will attract attention in every variant in future. On the Opel Mokka GS, black claddings at the front, rear and wheel arches also convey sporty elegance. A high-gloss black trim strip running across the lower door surfaces to the rear reflects the window design line in the side moulding and emphasises the stylish appearance. In line with Opel's ‘Greenovation’ approach, special aero wheels (available for the Opel Mokka Electric) and the redesigned front bumper improve aerodynamics. In addition, the new Opel Mokka completely dispenses with chrome applications on the exterior.

Detox and Greenovation: New Opel Mokka interior shines in new light

The new Opel Mokka continues its resource-saving approach in the interior. All fabrics are made from materials with recycled content. Visually, the ‘detox’ approach – the clear focus on the essentials – takes centre stage. The new 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 new Blitz in the centre and reflects the Opel compass of the exterior design with horizontal lines.

The centre console between the front seats, in a matt silver tone, is now even clearer than before. The designers and engineers have integrated some of the settings previously controlled via buttons into the central colour touchscreen. The entire cockpit design thus appears fresher and more desirable, 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 the Mokka Electric and automatic variants) comes from the all-new Opel Grandland.

Intelligent, intuitive, customisable: Upgraded infotainment system

The new multimedia and navigation infotainment system also takes the new Mokka to the next level. The further developed bestseller now offers a 10-inch digital driver information display and an equally large colour touchscreen as standard. The latter can be easily operated via widgets, just like a smartphone – alternatively and in combination with the optional navigation system, a ‘Hey, Opel’ is enough to use the natural voice recognition. Both displays can be personalised in many ways. The system recognises the driver's personal profile on the connected smartphone; the connection is always wireless in the new Mokka. Various virtual shortcuts can be set up on the central screen and different colour schemes offer further customisation options.

When ordered with the integrated navigation system, map updates are made available over-the-air. The system also constantly learns thanks to ChatGPT (available in combination with Connected Navigation) and – based on the habits of the linked driver profile – independently suggests destinations and routes. The myOpel app can also be used to easily send the destination and the corresponding route to the vehicle. Furthermore, the infotainment system of the Mokka Electric offers EV routing with charging station display. In addition, smartphones can also be charged wirelessly. Portable devices such as smartphones and tablets can also be connected via the USB-C plug in the centre console. Elsewhere, the optional 180-degree rear-view camera ensures excellent visibility when manoeuvring in the city.

Detoxed offer: Two electrified drivetrains, two trims, two packs

Opel is making the selection process for the new Mokka as clear as the design: The newcomer will be available in the “Edition” and “GS” trims and can be further customised with two individualisation packs.

On the drive side, Opel Mokka customers can choose from an efficient petrol engine for an entry-level price of €26,740 and two electrified alternatives. The compact SUV will be available both as a modern hybrid with 48-volt technology and as a battery-electric, locally emissions-free Mokka Electric. Fully electric, the new Mokka is now available from €36,740 exclusively with the 115 kW (156 hp) electric motor and 54 kWh battery. Thanks to efficient packaging, the engineers were able to ensure an exemplary range with a compact battery size. This means that up to 403 kilometres (WLTP 2) 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 Opel Mokka Electric stands confidently on the road. And with 260 Newton meters of torque available immediately, Opel Mokka Electric provides quick acceleration from a standing start and plenty of driving pleasure.

Customers who prefer an alternative drive can choose the new Opel Mokka Hybrid with 48-volt technology for prices starting at €29,740. It combines a 100 kW (136 hp) 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine with a 21 kW (28 hp) electric motor and a new electrified six-speed dual-clutch transmission. The optimised system helps to significantly reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions compared to a comparable conventionally powered vehicle. And at low speeds, Opel Mokka Hybrid drivers can even steer their SUV through city traffic purely electrically and thus locally emissions-free.

With the new Mokka, Frontera and Grandland, all of which are now available to order, Opel offers a state-of-the-art, future-proof SUV trio that fulfils virtually all customer wishes.
