Performance and Technology Details
The Opel Mokka GSE stands out for its impressive powertrain, offering 207 kW (280 hp) that matches its rally prototype counterpart. Instant torque of 345 Nm ensures rapid acceleration, with the vehicle hitting 100 km/h from a standstill in just 5.5 seconds. Drivers can select from three drive modes to suit different needs: Sport for maximum performance, Normal for balanced driving up to 180 km/h, and Eco for optimized efficiency.
Under the hood, the SUV incorporates advanced technology derived from Opel’s electric rallying experience. It includes a front-wheel drive system with a Torque multi-plate limited-slip differential, specially designed axles, and double hydraulic shock absorbers. High-voltage components such as the motor, inverter, battery, and wiring harness are adapted from rally prototypes. The steering, chassis, and brakes have been fine-tuned for sporty handling, contributing to the vehicle’s kerb weight of less than 1.6 tonnes—remarkable for a battery-electric model.
Rally-Inspired Design and Styling
Externally, the Mokka GSE exudes rally heritage through unique GSE accents on the front apron and rear. Aerodynamically optimized 20-inch alloy wheels paired with Michelin Pilot Sport EV 225/40 R20 tires provide superior road grip. Yellow GSE brake calipers add a bold visual statement, complemented by yellow and black GSE lettering on the front and sides.
Inside, the cabin emphasizes a dynamic atmosphere with gray, black, white, and yellow color schemes. Alcantara GSE sports seats feature integrated headrests, white center lines, and yellow stitching for enhanced support and style. Alcantara door inserts, aluminum sports pedals, and a newly developed steering wheel—flattened at the top and bottom—offer precise control and feedback.
Advanced Displays and User Experience
The driver benefits from a 10-inch digital information display that can be customized extensively, alongside a central color touchscreen. These interfaces provide essential GSE-specific data, including G-force readings, acceleration metrics, battery management details, and more, all styled in the distinctive GSE theme.
This all-electric SUV promises to deliver exhilarating performance in everyday driving, blending motorsport energy with practical features. Opel’s engineering prowess, honed through years in electric rallying, ensures the Mokka GSE appeals to enthusiasts seeking thrill without compromise.
