Vauxhall has given its popular small SUV, the Mokka, a facelift, and changed the pricing structure.
The electric and hybrid versions of the Vauxhall Mokka are now cheaper than the outgoing version, although petro model is more expensive. This is in part because the base-level Griffin trim has been dropped, while the design has been updated both inside and out, with a new look and new features.
The price of an electric Mokka has dropped to £33,245 – a cut of £4640 – while the hybrid entry price is now £27,305, which is £3250 less than it was. The starting price of the petrol-powered Mokka rises £1950 to £24,705.
The Mokka is Vauxhall's second best-seller behind the Corsa, and Vauxhall will hope the refresh and revised pricing will give it a boost in sales. Rivals for the car include the Ford Puma, Toyota C-HR and Skoda Kamiq, while electric rivals include the Peugeot E-2008, Skoda Enyaq and Kia Niro EV.
Updates include an upgraded infotainment system with a new digital driver's display, while outside there are some minor tweaks to the looks. The Mokka range has been cut to three trim options and three power options – electric, hybrid or petrol.

New 2025 Vauxhall Mokka: exterior and interior
The changes to the design of the Mokka are relatively subtle. The three-block LED headlight lights have been updated, as seen on the new Vauxhall Frontera, and have a similar design at the back. The bumpers have also been tweaked to enhance the aerodynamics, and there's a black line running along the side over the windows. Extra black cladding has been added to the front, rear and wheel arches on higher-spec models, while the chrome elements of earlier models have been ditched in favour of gloss black replacements.
There are several new colours to choose from, inlucding Tropical Green, Colibri Blue and Graphic Grey. Alloy wheels are standard across the range, in either 17-inch diameter or 18-inch, depending on the model. High-spec GS and Ultimate models get contrasting black roof and bumpers.
Inside, all models get a new 10-inch digital instrument display and a touchscreen infotainment screen of the same size. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, and top-spec Ultimate models get an upgraded navigation system featuring ChatGPT integration. Physical buttons control the climate control.
There's a new flat-bottom steering wheel and Ultimate models get massage seats.
New 2025 Vauxhall Mokka: engines, gearboxes, motors and batteries
The powertrain lineup for the Mokka has been streamlined for the facelift. There's now a single option of each kind.
The entry level models have a 1.2-litre petrol engine with 136PS – the 100PS version has been dropped, hence the price rise. This engine can propel the Mokka to 62mph from standstill in 8.9 seconds and comes with a six-speed manual gearbox. There's also an automatic transmission available, although that drops the engine power slightly to 130PS. However, it doesn't affect the 0-62mph time.
The hybrid version of the Vauxhall Mokka is technically a mild hybrid rather than a full hybrid, although it's quite an advanced one and lets the car drive for just over half a mile on electric power only when at low speeds. It combines the 136PS petrol engine with a 28PS electric motor and promises a fuel economy of up to 58.mpg. The electric motor also give a small boost in performance over the standard petrol model, dropping the 0-62mph time to 8.2 seconds.
The Vauxhall Mokka Electric now comes only with a 54kWh battery – the 50kWh version has been dropped. Paired with a 156PS electric motor, it promises up to 250 miles of driving on a single charge. While it's the most powerful Mokka you can now buy new, the extra weight of the electric components means it's also the slowest, although not by much – 0-62mph takes nine seconds exactly.
New 2025 Vauxhall Mokka: trim levels
The revised Vauxhall Mokka line up features three trim levels – Design, GS and Ultimate.
Design models come with LED headlights, black 17-inch alloy wheels and rear parkin sensors, as well as a adaptive cruise control, climate control and electric, heated door mirrors.
GS models have the high-gloss black cladding mentioned earlier, with 18-inch bi-colour alloy wheels on petrol models, and an aero design of wheel on electric models. The roof is black to contrast with the body paint, and the rear windows are tinted. Inside there's ambient lighting, a centre armrest and a rear-view parking camera.
The top-spec Ultimate model adds matrix headlights, which let you keep high beam on without dazzling oncoming traffic. There's also a blind-spot alert system, front and rear parking sensors and heated seats with a massage function. The steering wheel is heated too.
