Opel Mokka I generation 2012-N.V.

With the US city crossovers are replenished all the time, and it is not surprising, they are now at the peak of popularity. So Opel released her blowing karapuse - Mokka. Externally, the car looks impressive and muscular, and after all, its dimensions are not called outstanding.

Attention immediately attracts front with sharpened headlights and a powerful bumper, but the feed is difficult to distinguish from the "action" from the go. The image of Opel Mokka successfully complement the massive rear doors with small glasses.

Opel Mokka engines

Russia, the Germans will delight with 2 gasoline engines. Pretty Skupor, considering that there is another "gasoline" and diesel. Anyway, clients will have to choose between a 1.4 liter turbocharged motor and 1.8-liter atmospheric. The problem is that both of these engines are equal to the power and develop 140 liters. from. everyone. The advantage of the turbomotor is manifested in a larger torque (200 nm against 178 nm) and a wider range of revolutions in which this very moment is available.

Name both aggregates riders tongue will not turn, but as for the crossover, then dynamic characteristics Very even nothing - 10.9 seconds. up to hundreds with a motor 1.8 l and 9.9 seconds. For a 1.4t engine. For the sake of justice, it is worth noting that at a speed of 120 km / h, the air defense system capitulates and road noises that produces air flow around the front racks, actively penetrate the salon.

The 6-range automatic transmission machine is inaccessible for any money, as well as "connot" is only a 6-speed "mechanics" and 4x4 scheme. But the 1.8-liter version has both those and others, and the third.

Engine Opel Mokka.

Performance indicators

All-wheel drive at Mokka Connected - when slipping starts, the automation itself moves to the rear axle to half the torque. Of course, it is not necessary to rush on the capping and ride arable land, since the coupling of the full drive can overheat, and the low Out of the front bumper makes fondness in front of off-road feats. But to drive along the snow-covered urban road or take the storming the low border will not be difficult.

All versions of Opel Mokka have a torsion beam in the back, but the handling of this, if it suffered, it is not too much - the car is numb, yurt and perfectly listened to the steering wheel (especially the front-wheel drive versions).

Salon Opel Mokka. really gorgeous. Downward torpedo, well-designed seats with adjustments, clear and clear dashboard, comfortable multiwall, commander landing. It is far from full list Advantages of Opel Mokka.

"Bardac" here is a 2-section, though, in the uppermost almost nothing. A large color display towers over all the rest. Rear, however, will go only two - the trio is not placed here. Only overlooks the visibility since large bottom corners Racks can even close the car from the driver's gaze.

Machine with a motor volume of 1.8 liters, front-wheel drive and manual transmission will cost 729,000 rubles. - not so much. But for the turbo engine and four-wheel drive It will be necessary to pay 166,000 rubles, and for the "automatic" and a 4x4 scheme with a 1.8-liter engine and at all 186,000 rubles.

As you can see, the permeability is now expensive ...

Mini crossovers are not such popular cars as sedans, or, for example, hatchbacks, however, they have their own buyers. One of the most famous is "Opel Mokka". Specifications This car is a separate topic that I would like to pay attention to.

Brief about the model

So, first of all I would like to say that for the first time this car was shown in 2012 in Geneva. And the first pictures of the car were published in January of the same year. After half a year, the first sales began. Interestingly, this model is also sold under the name Vauxhall Mokka. True, only in one state, namely - in the UK. In the USA and in China, this car gave a completely different name - Buick Encore. But on the territory of our country "Opel Mokka", the price of which begins with 717,000 rubles (which is rather small for the new german car, albeit a mini-crossover), sold under its original title.

Modifications

This car B. standard equipment Equipped with front-wheel drive, but in more modern versions a complete appears. Opel Mokka, whose technical characteristics are quite solid for mini-crossover, are produced in several modifications. The differences are actually a bit. In three options produced "Opel Mokka". Engines - this is what is their key difference.

The first offered option is petrol motor by 1.4 liters. The second - 1.8-liter atmospheric engine with mechanical gearbox Five steps. And, of course, 1.7-liter "diesel" with a six-speed standard gearbox. By the way, there is still a diesel version with "automatic". It should be noted that all-wheel drive "Opels" are equipped with a smart system 4x4. What does it mean? The fact that under standard conditions they move as the front-wheel drive, but in the event that sliding or skid is noticed, half the torque is transferred to rear axle. This is a convenient and thoughtful system that provides a more comfortable driving system.

Appearance

What else should be noted, speaking about "Opel Mokka"? Specifications are quite satisfying the requirements of drivers moving through urban roads, but there is another point that cannot be noted. And this appearance car. I must say that in life this car looks much more bright and even "alive" than in the photo. The design of the exterior lay on the shoulders of the team of German artists, which was headed by Karsten Annenhajster.

The designer admitted that the purpose of artists was to create an energetic, fried and "muscular" sports car. Small, but proud - that's how he said about the new "Opel". In addition, designers quite practically approached their work, attaching an apron to the bumper, made of soft rubber. It is he who protects the car from dirt and increases the indicator of aerodynamic characteristics.

In general, the result of fruitful work was the sports and bright image of a new mini crossover, looking at which his decisiveness, purposefulness and energy rushes into his eyes.

Exterior

Speaking about Opel Mokka, the technical characteristics of the car, its appearance and "character" cannot be noted at the attention and exterior of the cabin, because it is precisely inside the driver conducts more time. Well, the exterior leaves an exceptionally positive impression. Even in the standard equipment, the chair intended for the driver pleases a very comfortable and convenient profile. There are rollers lateral support. Plus all over the chair is equipped with a rather wide range of adjustment. By the way, manufacturers provided potential buyers the opportunity to buy sports chairs with an orthopedic function. But it is only for the first row. What to say, sit in such chairs - solid pleasure. The back will not get tired even after a few hours drive. Driving seat May be adjusted in eight directions! It is also worth noting the attention of a high landing and comfortable steering wheelIdefully placed in hand.

Features of the configuration

And in the cabin there are as many as a variety of compartments for any things. If the buyer wants, then the system called FlexFix can be built at an additional fee. It allows you to transport several bikes on a special advanced platform! And, of course, inside there are such supplements such as cruise control, air conditioning, windows, tape recorder, on-board computer and an electric camera with heating function. Climate control, rain sensor, parking sensors and heated seats with steering wheel are added to the COSMO configuration. Such a saturated equipment at the mini-crossover "Opel Mokka". The price of the maximum configuration (COSMO AT6 4WD) will be about 955,000 rubles.

Power, speed and efficiency

The Opel Mokka car, the test drive of which showed that the car really standing (if we talk about mini crossovers), is popular among motorists. The most demanded modification - with gasoline engine at 140. horse power. More precisely, there are even two of them. On one install turbocharged engine By 1.4 liters, and on the other - atmospheric 1.8-liter. There is also a diesel 1.7-liter at 130 hp.

It is worth talking about that "Opel Mokka", reviews about which the most impressive. This is a version of 1.4 liters NET. START STOP system, six-speed mechanical box gears, as well as a plug-in full drive - that's what is different this car. The engine is able to accelerate to a hundred kilometers in just 10 seconds. And the maximum speed is about 190 km / h, which is quite good for the crossover.

What to say, German manufacturers try even such models to make powerful and attractive to potential buyers. In addition, it should be noted another point regarding "Opel Mokka". Reviews about him positive also because this car Does not spend too much fuel. Less than 6.5 liters a hundred kilometers in a mixed cycle - a great figure for the city! It is because of this, many motorists make a choice in favor of this model.

Comfort and management

Well, test drives of many critics have shown that "Opel Mokka" perfectly behaves on the road. Stable behavior on the straight and minimum body rolls on various turns - that's all note the first thing. It seems to many that the suspension of this car should be very tough. However, there is actually the settings of the chassis are very comfortable, which makes it possible to easily "pass" lying police and other obstacles arising on the way. With pits, codbins and other irregularities, the car copes easily - passengers practically do not feel them. True, it is impossible to say about the driver - a little frustrating steering, since it is too responsive and sensitive, because of what all nuances of the road surface are felt very clearly. But you quickly get used to it. In general, the Office leaves a pleasant impression.

Reliability

Many people concerns such a question as car repair. "Opel Mokka" is not from those cars that break once a month. The Germans put every effort to make the car as reliable as possible. Of course, it is not without flaws. Some complain, for example, on breakdowns of a plastic pipe, others - on a bad chrome edging, which in time starts to pour. But one pleases - maintenance The car "Opel Mokka" is inexpensive, so if it will be necessary to repair the car, then do it work out for a small price.
