When Opel was part of General Motors and offered more than three passenger models in Russia, the Mokka crossover was quite in demand and second in brand sales after Astra. But in 2015, the company left our country and the glorious history of Mokka ended. Well, now he has another chance to try his luck – thanks to parallel imports.
During his absence, the Mokka crossover changed generations. But since the development of the new generation was already under the strict guidance of the PSA concern, which Opel entered in 2017, nothing remained of the previous and well-known model except for the nameplate. And that is why it is a big question whether it is worth rejoicing at the return of the now French SUV.
Like its colleagues from Peugeot and Citroën, the second generation Opel Mokka is equipped with small turbocharged engines. In particular, the option offered in Russia “in total” has a 1.2-liter engine with a capacity of 130 horsepower. Of. It is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Well, the drive is undisputed front.
The crossover features matrix headlights, dual-zone climate control, all-round visibility, keyless entry and button engine start, adaptive cruise, heated front seats and a set of electronic assistants that make life easier for the driver. And all this splendor costs – 3,550,000 rubles. Yes, it’s not cheap.
The “gray” market offers much more affordable (at a price of up to 2.5 million “wooden”) and no less interesting crossovers. And which one, we told here.
