Vauxhall Mokka whisper diesel - pictures

This is the Vauxhall Mokka, set to rival the Nissan Juke, Peugeot 2008 and the Citroen C4 Cactus. 

Vauxhall have scrapped the 1.7-litre diesel engine to make way for a new 1.6-litre CDTi engine. 

The Skoda Yeti comes generously equipped with technology and the interiors are well finished. 

The Vauxhall Mokka exteriors are perfectly balanced between the rugged looks of the Skoda Yeti and the well-refined Nissan Qashqai.

The raised ride-height, underbody skidplates and plastic body cladding add to the Vauxhall Mokka’s off-road looks.

While the petrol engines in the Mokka are quiet and good for in town use, the diesel engines provide a lot of torque. 

All variants of the Vauxhall Mokka are fitted with 18-inch allow wheels. 

Electronically folding door mirrors and all-round parking sensors come as standard kit in all variants of the Vauxhall Mokka. 

Safety features such as traction and stability control, Hill Start Assist and Hill Descent Control are fitted as standard in the Mokka.

There is plenty of room to fit three people in the back of the Vauxhall Mokka, without having to compromise on headroom.

The boot space in the Vauxhall Mokka is an impressive 356-litres, larger than its rivals. 

The most efficient engine in the Mokka is the 1.6-litre TDCi diesel, with CO2 emissions at a mere 109g/km and fuel economy of 68.9mpg.

The electronic steering in the Vauxhall Mokka lacks feedback and the whole car suffers from a lot of body roll in the corners.
