Opel Mokka — a compact city SUV produced since 2012. We look at the first generation (2016 refreshed and renamed Mokka X) and the second Mokka B: their engines, trims, and what to check when buying used.
The first-generation Mokka (2012–2019) was created during the General Motors era, while the second (from 2020) is on the Stellantis CMP platform, like the Peugeot 2008 or Opel Corsa. Both generations are five-door, compact, but taller than typical hatchbacks.
The Mokka is praised for its elevated seating position, easy access, and compact size in the city. The first generation could come with all-wheel drive, while the second is front-wheel drive only, including an electric version.
Mokka A (2012–2016) — a practical, fairly tall car with a simple, button-heavy interior. The 2016 refreshed version was renamed Mokka X: it got a new front end with wing-shaped daytime running lights, a more modern infotainment system, and fewer buttons in the cabin.
Mokka B (from 2020) — a completely new car: shorter, lighter, with a striking Opel Vizor front end and digital Pure Panel instrument cluster. It's more modern and economical, but there's not much space in the rear seats and boot.
In the used market, the Mokka X is cheaper and can come with all-wheel drive, while the Mokka B is more modern, with more driver-assistance systems and an electric version.
Mokka A and X are most commonly found with 1.6 (around 115 hp) and 1.4 Turbo (around 140–150 hp) petrol engines, as well as 1.7 CDTI and later 1.6 CDTI (around 130–136 hp) diesel engines. The 1.4 Turbo and diesel engines could come with all-wheel drive, which engages the rear wheels only when needed.
Mokka B offers a 1.2 Turbo petrol (around 100–130 hp), 1.5 diesel (around 110 hp), and the electric Mokka-e (around 136 hp, later around 156 hp; renamed Mokka Electric from 2023). Mild hybrid versions were later introduced.
Transmissions include 5 or 6-speed manuals, as well as 6-speed (Mokka A/X) or 8-speed (Mokka B) automatics.
Mokka A/X with all-wheel drive — ask about rear differential oil changes and listen for any whining or grinding noises during turns. In diesel engines, check the diesel particulate filter (DPF) and EGR valve, especially if the car has done a lot of city driving.
Mokka B with the 1.2 Turbo engine — as with other cars using this engine, check the oil change history and the condition of the timing chain, which runs in the oil. For 1.5 diesel cars, check the AdBlue system.
For the electric Mokka-e, request a battery condition report and test the charging. For all cars, check the ride height according to service records, and inspect the sills and underbody for signs of impact damage.

The Mokka B Elegance with the 1.2 Turbo engine is a popular choice among buyers. If you need all-wheel drive, you'll have to opt for the first-generation Mokka or Mokka X.
The first-generation Mokka and Mokka X come with some versions featuring the 1.4 Turbo and diesel engines. The second-generation Mokka B does not offer all-wheel drive.
They are essentially the same first generation: the 2016 refreshed Mokka was renamed Mokka X and received a new front end, a more modern interior, and a multimedia system. The mechanics remained largely the same.
Worth considering if you can park the car at home or work and mostly drive in the city or suburbs. Before buying, ask for a battery condition report — it's just as important as the mileage.
For most buyers, the 1.2 Turbo (around 130 hp) with an 8-speed automatic gearbox is a solid choice — it's powerful enough and economical. The 1.5 diesel is worth considering if you do a lot of out-of-town driving.
