Vauxhall's Mokka breaks new ground for company
Vauxhall's new small SÚV will take the company into new market territory when it's unveiled at Geneva. Called Mokka, the new model will enter the growing sub-compact SÚV B-§egmènt, and even at just 4.28 metres long can accommodate five adults in comfort.The Mokka will be available wîth a choice of front- or all-wheel drive. The all-wheel drive system automatically and seamlessly transfers power to the wheels that need it most when grip levels are tested to the extreme.
Power is provided by three efficient engines, all equipped wîth fuel saving Start/Stop technology. The petrol range comprises a 115PS, 1.6-litre naturally-aspirated engine or a 140PS 1.4-litre Turbo wîth 200Nm of torque. The diesel is a 130PS 1.7 CDTI turbo wîth 300Nm of torque. Both the 1.4 Turbo and the 1.7 CDTI can be combined either wîth six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmissions.
The Vauxhall Mokka brings cutting-edge technologies to the SÚV B-§egmènt. The Advanced Adaptive Forward Lighting (AFL+) which increases driving safety is based on the third-generation bi-xenon lighting system that includes High Beam Assist (HBA). The new generation Vauxhall front camera system is also available, giving the driver access to a number of functions including Lane Departure Warning (LDW), Forward Collision Alert (FCA) and second generation Traffic Sign Recognition.
Muscular and attractive, the Mokka incorporates Vauxhall's signature ‘blade' on the body side, sweeping towards the rear. The Mokka's rugged character is reinforced by its higher ground clearance as well as a 1540mm track. Its robust looks are further enhanced by 18-inch alloy wheels which are standard on most models.
