Description
From the moment you pull into view, the Mokka Elite Premium makes a bold impression. This isn’t a wallflower—its compact SUV silhouette, eye-catching front “Vizor” fascia with that sharp LED lighting, stylish alloy wheels, and premium trim touches give it a very modern, upscale presence. The Elite Premium spec adds that extra level of polish — gloss accents, smart detailing, and quality finishes that make you feel you’re driving something well above basic.
???? Engine & Drive Feel
Under the bonnet, the 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine brings that perfect mix of punch and polish. It’s not going to win drag races, but with good low-end torque for its size, overtaking is confident and motorway pulling isn’t strained. With the manual gearbox you get engaging control — shifts feel satisfying, particularly when you’re revving a bit to get the most from the turbo. The Mokka isn’t built for razor-sharp handling, but it delivers a composed, planted drive, especially in town or on A-roads. Spur-of-the-moment corners might see a bit of body lean, but that’s expected in this kind of SUV.
???? Economy, Emissions & Costs
One of the Mokka’s bright spots is quite strong fuel economy. In Elite Premium, with the 1.2 turbo unit, you’re looking at WLTP/combined economy in the high 40s mpg (≈ 47-51 mpg depending on exact spec) in real world mixed driving.
Emissions are competitive for the class, keeping CO? in a reasonable band so you’re not hammered by taxes or running costs. Insurance groups are mid-range-high for its class (reflecting quality & kit), but you get a lot for what you pay.
???? Comfort, Interior & Practicality
Inside, the Elite Premium trim shows what the Mokka can really offer. Premium materials, well-designed touch points, nice tech (infotainment, connectivity, etc.), and a clean modern layout. The seats are comfortable, visibility good, plus there’s enough space up front for long motorway legs.
