Pleasure, Steve! Glad you like the content.

We are test driving a Mokka e this week after various Nissan Leafs since 2015, most recent being a 62kw e+ They’ve lowered the price of the Mokka and we are looking to scale down our monthly payments. Although we won’t get the range we will with our Leaf, it’s never been an issue for us as we don’t do the mileage. I really like the look of the Mokka and the equipment on the Ultimate version which we would choose is very good

@@TotallyEV we were pleasantly surprised with the ride actually. Wasn’t expecting it to be quite as comfortable being the type of vehicle it is. The only thing I don’t like is the camera and the fact it doesn’t fill up the whole screen like the leaf but that’s the only thing.

My wife had a 2015 Mokka 1.6D for 4 years and despite it being fugly, it was totally reliable and frugal. I ordered a Mokka e SRi Nav Premium in Black back in May and expect it to be delivered in late September. We loved it before we had even driven off the forecourt when we test drove one. We went on to test drive a Puma MHEV (155) and couldn’t stand that 3 cylinder noise so ordered the Mokka e. HUD and Premium Audio would have been nice, but would have pushed the price even higher. A line has to be drawn and compromises made.

Drives lovey and you can really max the range in Eco mode and have a spirited ride in Sport mode. We are enjoying the electric car revolution, but still believe that electricity isn’t the answer to the issue.

The audio is much better if you tick the “loud” box. Also, the HUD on the e-c4 creates terrible reflection in the windscreen, so better without.

Excellent review. I appreciate the points raised about the rear view mirror and back door.

Great review thank you. I think the Mokka-e represents an easy transition to BEV driving - the persistence of the plethora of buttons is welcoming to some traditional ICE drivers as well as the conservative but stylish looks. I can see the appeal even though a spreadsheet might suggest an alternate choice. Styling alone is the only rationale for choosing a DS3 E-tense the Mokka-e encouragingly has other good attributes.

Good review. But your boot is missing an extra floor in the boot that the charging wires and few other bit go under. Also makes the boot level with the seats when put down.

@TotallyEV

Жыл бұрын

Thanks! As for the comment - the vehicle was provided straight from Vauxhall's press garage, so it could have been missing it, although, that might be because of the trim level (ie adjustable boot floor)?

At the moment im stuck between the vauxhall mokka-e, the Citroen eC4 and the Peugeot e-2008. The eC4 and e-2008 both seem to outclass the mokka but from my knowledge, Citroen and Peugeot have a history of unreliability when it comes to mechanical issues. That is however, a history and doesn't mean that they're new electric models will suffer from the same unreliability. Do you have any opinions about this? Also great video! Very well spoken, all the useful bits of information and some really great points about some of the down sides such as visibility and the rear doors. I'll definitely be checking out your videos for the eC4 and the e-2008!

Can't comment there, as it's hard to test for reliability. However, all the vehicles you mentioned come from the same motoring group - some built even on the same vehicle platform. Groupe PSA, now known as Stellantis. So, wouldn't associate one or the other, especially, as you said, with the electric power train. And thank you, glad you liked the video, comments such as these are very much appreciated! Do let us know what you make of the other two. Subjectively, the e-C4 is the best out of the bunch - purely because of its comfortable seats.

From the statistics available it seems that the french manufacturers nowadays are more reliable than the german but maybe less than the asian. I have owned five different Peugeot (currently a 3008) and have not had any major problems with any of them. The 3008 is now 4 years old and over 70 000 kilometers on the odometer, have not had a single fault.

Good review....I looked at the Mokka before deciding to buy the Kia Soul EV. Reasons being I just felt Vauxhall have let themselves down here by offering a car that although I quite liked from a looks/design point of view simply doesn't...for the money...provide enough range or performance. I'm finding my Soul EV will easily offer 250m of range and with over 200hp on tap it's actually a fairly quick car too with plenty of confidence inspiring instant torque. I was looking for a positive first experience to driving electric and the Soul certainly provides that....it's a great, well thought out vehicle....Thank you Kia...!!.

This truly depends on how/where/what time you charge; might be worth running through your options with a dealer and they might be able to give you a more accurate breakdown. However, as a ballpark, if you were to charge overnight at home, and use off-peak tariffs, then you'd be looking at around £2-4 for a full charge from 0%.

So we have had a petrol automatic Mokka for 12 months. So the lane control is a pain. Getting in the back is another issue. So kids will be ok but if your an adult you will have issues getting in and out. We have the keyless entry. We have given up on this as it is so temperamental. Then one big issue is when we go to open the car with the key fob. We find the car will not open. The key fob stops working. So we have a trick now to get round this. We have to open and close the boot. Which I am guessing because we have keyless entry it allows us to do this. Then the key fob comes back to life. We can now open the car with the key fob. The car has been back 7 times to the dealer. Still not fixed. Oh Vauxhall customer service is a waste of time. I will not say what I think of them.
