“Nice-looking Vauxhall mini-MPV has a neat interior and that's about it. Can't hold a candle to a Yeti”
Good stuff
Erm, unmistakable looks? We're struggling
Bad stuff
Noisy, average to drive, not a Yeti
Overview
What is it?
Vauxhall’s first foray into the mini-SUV market, one currently dominated by the Skoda Yeti and Nissan’s Juke and Qashqai. The Mokka falls somewhere between the latter two in terms of size, and serves up a high-riding driving position and styling optimistically described as ‘chunky’.
Like the Qashqai, it’s available in two- and four-wheel drive, the latter offering enough off-road performance to conquer a muddy field or two, which we suspect will be about the extent of the Mokka’s non-tarmac follies. There’s an entry-level 1.6-litre petrol, a fizzier 1.4-litre turbo petrol and a single diesel offering: Vauxhall’s familiar 1.7-litre CDTi developing 130bhp.

What's the verdict?
“There are many good mini-SUVs on the market. The Mokka isn’t one of them. We advise a trip to a Skoda dealership.”
